Veteran Nollywood actress Bukky Wright has opened up about her romantic aspirations, declaring her desire to remarry despite five failed marriages, in an interview published on July 10, 2025.
The 57-year-old, known for roles in films like Sango and Out of Bounds, shared her reflections with a lifestyle magazine, emphasizing that her past experiences have not diminished her hope for love. Wright, who has two sons from her marriages, attributed her divorces to youthful decisions and incompatible partners, a narrative she has explored publicly over the years.
Her first marriage ended in the early 1990s, followed by four subsequent unions, with the most recent concluding in 2022. Wright, who has since focused on her acting career and business ventures, including a clothing line, expressed optimism about finding a compatible partner, citing emotional maturity as a guide.
Colleagues like Faithia Balogun have praised her resilience, while fans on social media admire her candor. The actress, who remains single, plans to take a deliberate approach, avoiding haste, and has ruled out cohabitation without marriage. Her statement has sparked discussions on love and perseverance in Nigeria’s entertainment circle.
