Suzanne Emma, the former wife of veteran Nollywood actor Emeka Ike, has opened up about the alleged abuse she endured during her marriage in a candid discussion with media personality Chude Jideonwo.
In the interview, Suzanne disclosed instances of physical abuse, recounting a time when the actor reportedly battered her and, in a weakened state, blamed her for the ongoing mistreatment. She further accused Emeka Ike of abusing her even when their child was hospitalized, asserting that she endured the ordeal despite having relationships with individuals beneath her social status.
Expressing confidence that her side of the story would come as a shock to her ex-husband, Suzanne stated that Emeka Ike was convinced she would never speak out about the issues in their marriage.
This revelation follows Suzanne’s 2015 court application to dissolve their marriage, where she accused Emeka Ike of persistent physical and verbal abuse throughout their union.
Recently, Emeka Ike garnered attention on social media as he shared details of his previous marital struggles, alleging false accusations of domestic violence that led to the loss of his properties and access to his children. He blamed the turmoil in his personal life for his absence from the spotlight in previous years.
After parting ways with Suzanne, Emeka Ike entered into a relationship with a South African model, publicly acknowledging the romance in 2019. A year later, the couple hinted at the anticipation of their first child, with his partner sharing a photo of her baby bump along with a heartfelt caption.
