Nollywood star Jim Icke talks about how his marriage fell apart due to delayed grief.
Speaking on the Tea Talk podcast, Jim Ike revealed that the loss of his mother affected his marriage.
The now divorced actor also revealed that he tried to suppress the pain he felt at the time because of the culture in Africa where men hold back pain and are seen as wimps if they let it out. He added that he was not grieving properly, which led him to fight for the wrong things.
He also said that his ex-wife tried to help Jim, but he expected Jim to reciprocate the same love. Jim also revealed that he had remarried and intended to enjoy his married life. He also revealed that although his marriage is over, he now understands himself better, wiser, and much more successful.
Jim added that anyone who comes into his space now must come correctly, according to his own terms.
