Nollywood actress, Nse Ikpe-Etim, has revealed she felt
inadequate as a woman when she found out she could not bear children of her
own.
Nse said this in an interview with Chude Jideonwo.
The 47-year-old actress had earlier disclosed she had to
undergo hysterectomy (removal of the uterus) to have a life again after she was
diagnosed with adenomyosis.
When asked if she was ashamed about not being able to have
kids of her own, Nse said: “Finding out I couldn’t have children didn’t make me
feel ashamed. I felt inadequate.
“I felt inadequate as a woman but not ashamed, which was
because of how I was brought up.
“Where I’m from we don’t tie shame to ourselves. Where I was
brought up, we live through life fully.”
When asked if she is open to adoption, Nse said: “You never
say never, but right now, my husband and I are just dog parents.
“People should be allowed to live, my husband and I are okay
right now.”
