Hanks Anuku reveals battle with Nigerian women

Nollywood actor, Hanks Anuku has revealed his battle with Nigerian women, stating that he is not ready to marry any Nigerian again.

Hanks disclosed this during an interview in a recent episode of Nollywood Hardcore, The Legend’s Untold Story.

According to him, his marriage with his Asaba wife left him traumatized and scared of Nigerian women.

The actor said that his marriage failed due to a lack of compatibility and he believes he is more compatible with Caucasian women.

“My marriage failed because we were not compatible. It was a wrong marriage. She is not the mother of my kids. But I had a stepdaughter she came with from a previous relationship.”

Hanks who has been divorced for ten (10) years stated that he has remained unmarried all these years due to the psychological trauma he faced and also because he doesn’t want to get married to a Nigerian woman.

Although he never expected to go through divorce he had to move on.

“I have been divorced for more than 10 years. I’m not married to anybody yet but I have another lady who has two kids for me. She has a son and daughter for me and they live together with their mother. I’m not married again. I’m not married after separating from my first wife. I don’t want to get married to any Nigerian. Because I went through a lot of psychological trauma and all that. I never expected that I was going to be separated from her. It hurt me. But I had to move on.”

While speaking on his plans for marriage, the actor revealed that he thought he wanted to get married again, but the mother of his kids isn’t the woman of his dreams.

Agape love, for him is the greatest and he doesn’t want to get married due to infatuation but real love, however, he doesn’t feel that way towards her.

“I thought I had a chance to get married again but it never happened. The mother of my kids is not the kind of woman I want to get married to. So, we are just friends. She has two kids for me but that doesn’t mean I have to marry her. She is just my friend. I’m doing what I can. I like to be married and be happy in the marriage. I have dated for a couple of years and I know that she wasn’t going to be my wife. I like to be in love with somebody and not just be infatuated. Agape love, the greatest of love is what I want in any woman I’m going to get married to.”

Speaking further on his marital status, Hanks stated that his fear for Nigerian women has stopped his plans for remarriage.

According to him, it is a little too late to go back to his Caucasian friends, although they are his specs. As he never dated any woman of color whenever he was overseas.

“It’s not that I don’t want to get married, I’m just scared of Nigerian women. Overseas, I had Caucasian female friends. If I had to go back, it would be a bit too late now. Maybe, if I go on vacation and I find a friend… I found myself a lot more compatible with Caucasian women. When I was overseas, I never dated any colored woman. Blonde women are my specs. They never bothered me until I came to Nigeria.”

Speaking on his career, the actor stated, “My ex-wife is a Nigerian woman from Asaba. I was in love with her. We were cool together but she was always demanding for money. And she also asked me to stop acting because she was jealous of other women being around me. I told her I couldn’t stop acting.”
