The actress whose marriage crashed, and has since
refused to remarry, told Punch that she is now ready to give marriage a
chance.
She said, “If marriage comes along, yes I will consider
it. Then, I used to say that I didn’t want to get married again because
of the stress involved.
“Now, I have had a rethink. But I can’t marry a poor
man. Some people will say I shouldn’t say that, but I am a blunt person.
For someone like me, there is no love without money. I am a celebrity
and I am expected to maintain a certain lifestyle, which is expensive.”
“I have a lot of responsibilities . As a breadwinner and
celebrity , how do you expect me to marry a poor man? Where do you
expect us to start from?
“I am not ready to add any man’s problems to mine. I
don’t need the man to be very rich, but he must be able to feed himself
and me. You don’t even have to cater for my other responsibilities.
“We all have our defects. When you keep looking for an
ideal man, a good one will pass you by. I just need a man who is
responsible for himself first before me. Once he is hungry for success,
every other thing will follow.
“The kind of man I want in my life has to be more
successful than me. When I bought my personal assistant a car , people
said I didn’t want her to marry. I told them that I don’t expect her to
marry someone who does not have a car as well.
“You say what you want out of life; we shouldn’t deceive
ourselves. It is a choice to die in poverty and I have chosen not to
die in poverty. I cannot flow with someone who wants to die in poverty.”
