'I'M TECHNICALLY STILL MARRIED TO BLOSSOM CHUKWUJEKWU'- EX-WIFE MAUREEN ESISI. (PHOTO).


 ‘I’m technically still married to Blossom Chukwujekwu’ – Ex-wife Maureen Esisi


Maureen Esisi has insisted that she and Nollywood actor, Blossom Chukwujekwu are “technically” still married, despite their marriage crashing in 2019.


She maintained that they were not officially divorced, as she didn’t sign any legal documents.


Featuring on a recent episode of ‘The House Chronicles’ podcast, Esisi accused her ex-in-laws of encouraging their separation, despite advising her against exiting the union earlier on.


She said, “I would call his mum, she would give me reasons why we cannot divorce. She would say, ‘It [divorce] is not of the Lord. Don’t worry, he would get better.’ And then, magically, he said he was done. And the same you guys [in-laws] that were telling me every year to stay, how come your son comes up to you that he’s done and surprisingly, you throw God out of the way?


“My separation happened way before it became public. I’m not divorced by books. Technically, we are still married. When you say you’re divorced, it means you’ve signed papers, right?”


 Blossom Chukwujekwu got married to Pastor Ehinome, at Christ Embassy in June 2022, three years after his marriage to Maureen Esisi packed up.
