It is almost becoming a norm for marriages that involve at least one celebrity to come to an end sooner than expected. When these marriages crash, they end in controversial ways that draw more attention than their initial union commanded. Though it might not be the latest celebrity failed marriage, Nkiru Sylvanus\u2019 failed marriage adds to such a list.<\/p>\n

Nkiru Sylvanus is a Nollywood actress who had made a name for herself in the movie industry with movies like\u00a0A Cry for Help<\/em> (2002), Love in Bondage<\/em> (2002), Green Snake<\/em> (2003), Egg of Life<\/em> (2003), Queen<\/em> (2004), What a Mother<\/em> (2005), and Final Tussle<\/em> (2008). Aside from her acting career, Nikiru is also a politician. One of her biggest fans is the ex-governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha. During his time as governor of the southeastern Nigerian state, Rochas appreciated her effort by appointing her as his Special Assistant on Lagos State Affairs. She moved on from that post and was later appointed as the former governor\u2019s Special Adviser on Public Affairs.<\/p>\n

Amidst her illustrious career, the actress has been involved in a lot of controversies, especially ones that involve her love life. She was famously in a love triangle that included her colleague, actress Oge Okoye, with a man named Stanley Duru. That has since ended as the actress now appears to be very much single.<\/p>\n

What We Know About Her Alleged Marriage To Stanley Duru<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nkiru Sylvanus may be a private person but aside from her acting career, her involvement in controversies has continued to make headlines. The news about her marriage to a man named Stanley Duru surfaced in 2014. The two reportedly lived together as a couple for five years before they called it quits in 2019.<\/p>\n

Nkiru’s alleged husband Stanley Duru is a Nigerian businessman. He is based in the Netherlands where he carries out most of his businesses. Stanley is an Igbo man who hails from Imo State and so far, he has been married twice and has also been divorced twice. Stanley is not in any way as famous as both the wives he was previously married to but he has twice managed to get married to two of Nigeria\u2019s finest actresses.<\/p>\n

As a matter of fact, Stanley is ever in the news only when it relates to matters that concern his famous ex-wives. He married actress Oge Okoye in 2006 but the marriage was annulled in 2013. It is not clear how the business mogul met Nkiru but according to information on various news channels, the two were lovers for a long time before tying the knot in 2014.<\/p>\n

Why Nkiru Sylvanus and Stanley Duru’s Marriage Failed<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Sources have it that the pair were lovers long before Stanley Duru left her for another Nollywood actress, Oge Okoye. Nkiru further mentioned that she would not mind being a second wife as she is deeply in love with the business mogul. After his marriage to Oge failed in 2013, the pair then decided to make their relationship public and along the line, they got married. They had their traditional marriage on December 27, 2014, and their white wedding happened on December 31, 2014. Both occasions were attended by only family members and close friends as they chose to make it a low-key event.<\/p>\n

Five years into their marriage, Nkiru and Stanley began to find faults in themselves. It was in 2019 that the couple separated and their divorce was finalized in 2020. The failure of their marriage was credited to a lot of issues, including infidelity.<\/p>\n

Nkiru Sylvanus’s marriage to Stanley Duru severely strained her relationship with her friend Oge Okoye who felt cheated and manipulated. Oge also accused Duru of being an alcoholic.<\/p>\n

Nkiru further received lots of criticisms for allegedly snatching her colleague\u2019s husband. The actress was, however, quick to debunk such claims by stating that she and Stanley were lovers before he got married to Oge Okoye and that when he got married to her, they broke ties and only got back together after Stanley and Oge\u2019s marriage ended.<\/p>\n

Did Nkiru Sylvanus Have Children With Stanley Duru?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nkiru’s five-year marriage to Duru did not produce a child. Some fans and close pals felt it was one of the things that caused their union to end. Currently, Nkiru has no child of her own. Duru, on the other hand, has two children from his previous marriage to Oge Okoye. His first child was a boy born in 2006. His second child was a girl born in 2013. She was named Crystal Okoye.<\/p>\n
