“I started 2024 single and ended it single” – Yvonne Jegede laments as she makes declaration into the New Year

Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede is reflecting on her single status in the past year as we enter a New Year.

Taking to her Instagram page to share photos of herself on a flight, she revealed that she started 2024 single and ended it single. Describing it as very demure, consistent, and mindful, she prayed that this New Year should be a blessing to everyone and their heart desires shall come easy.

Yvonne admonished her fans to stay out of trouble and stay blessed.

“See how I started 2024 single and ended it single??? Very demure, very consistent, very mindful, very much single.
2025 is here, and it will be a blessing to every one of us. May your heart desires not only come but come easy.
Stay out of trouble and stay blessed.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
Cheers to a new beginning”.

Last year, Yvonne had revealed the qualities she is looking for in her future partner. She disclosed that she wants a man with a good mind and empathy and one that can give her N20 million when she asks for N1 million.

Elsewhere in the interview, Yvonne revealed that she walked out of her marriage because she was contributing more financially than her ex-husband. The movie star further expressed regrets over choosing love instead of money, and added that her ex-husband took every joke as disrespect because he was older than her, which worsen things.

Recall that Jegede met the son of late actress, Bukky Ajayi, on the set of Tade Ogidan’s popular drama series, ‘Behind the Siege”. After years of being together, the lovebirds tied the knot in a classy wedding ceremony in Lagos in February, 2018. Unfortunately the marriage didn’t last long as a year later, the couple split when Yvonne was still pregnant.

In an interview, Yvonne disclosed that her ex-husband is a deadbeat father who hasn’t shown any form of support or interest in the life of their son, Xavier. She recounted how Olakunle Fawole only showed up once to see the child after she gave him an ultimatum and how he doesn’t celebrate their son on his birthdays.

However, the mother of one is grateful for her son as she pondered on how her life would have become if she hadn’t given birth before the marriage hit the rock. She disclosed that she would have killed herself as she sent a message to her mini-me for making her life complete.
