I don’t trust my husband 100%, says Toyosi Etim-Effiong

Toyosi, the wife of Daniel Etim-Effiong, the Nollywood actor, has shared her thoughts on trust in their marriage.

During an episode of her podcast, the film star asked Toyosi if she trusted him 100% after seven years of marriage.

Toyosi’s response was straightforward “no” after which they both laughed.

She explained that while she doesn’t fully trust Daniel, she’s confident he will always keep her informed about his activities.

The YouTuber also emphasised the importance of communication in their relationship.

“Do I trust you 100 percent? No, but I trust that you will always keep me in the loop,” she said.

“Maybe not keep me in the loop. I have spent these years with you, I know you to a large extent and I am getting to know you better.

“I think that you will do your absolute best to honour your vows and honour what we have. But I am also aware that, I do not want to say anything can happen, but things happen more or less.

“And I feel like if anything ever happens, I would know.”

Daniel and Toyosi tied the knot in November 2017. They welcomed their first child – a girl — in January 2019.

In 2021, the lovebirds announced the birth of their son. In March, the couple celebrated the birth of their third child.

Honey Berry, one of the mothers of Portable‘s children, appears to have found love again.

Berry, who was previously in a relationship with the controversial singer, had a public spat with him in January 2023.

She also said she wished she had met him “before the wrong person” and thanked him for bringing “immense happiness” into her life.

“It’s Monday. I want you to know that you are the love of my life, that your soul and mine are the same, and I will love you a million lifetimes from now! You have no idea how happy you make me, sweetheart. I will spend my life making you as happy as you make me,” she wrote.

“I love you so much. We share such an amazing, pure, and true love. Tonight, you have my heart overflowing. I wish you were here so I could cook for you and watch a movie together.

“Sweetheart, I cannot wait to be holding you again. I love you, baby. I love you from the very depth of my soul. I wish I had met you before the wrong person.”

Four dating tips for single mum

Published

on

By

Dating as a single mum isn’t like dating as a spinster.  This is why you must go in with some intimate advice from other single parents who’ve dated with success, and know what to expect.

We’ve done the leg work of gathering this information so all you have to do is sit/lie down, relax, and have a great read:

1.  Timing is key

Is now the right time for you to start dating? Is a question only you can truly answer. It’s important to make sure you’re over your ex and at a good place emotionally, financially, etc.

You may think a new partner can help you with these things, but it’s important that you figure them out for yourself before making a decision to share your life with another person on that level.

The perfect time to start dating as a single mum then is when you are content with your life you are ready to let a new person in.

In the same vein, you have to consider your child/ren as well.

Seeing someone (dating) can be addictive and time-consuming. Remember, this time, you are not the only one going into a relationship; it’s you and them. Does he understand your need to prioritise your kids from time to time? Is it the right time to introduce another prominent figure to them?

Does he like and respect your kids, and vice-versa?

The last thing you need is to add pressure to your life causing you or your children to suffer. Remember dating should be a fun, blissful, and positive addition to your world.

If it’s not, then something’s not right.

2. Make your expectations clear

It’s important that you plainly spell out what you want to get from your return to the dating scene. Are you looking for a life partner?

Or just friendship and fun?

Take a definite decision in your mind, and share it with your date. It’s vital you have a definition from the onset; besides, he will appreciate you being up-front and honest.

This, however, is not to say it will always end up the way you plan.

You might be in the market for a fling and end up with Mr. In good times and in bad, till death do us part or encounter a date with varying dating objectives.

Clear expectations and definitions are a good start if you’re looking to date as a single mum.

3. Be upfront but not a tell-it-all

You will need to share with your date any important factors in your life, including that you have children.

They are not ‘baggage’ as some people provocatively refer to them.

They are an extension of the wonderful package that is you.

But just names and ages are fine to start.

No need to bear all the details such as childcare arrangements and their father.

It’s just not the kind of stuff a possible partner will want to hear at a go.

Stick to the headlines and save the details for later if your relationship becomes more serious.

4.      Set your priorities straight

Keep in mind, that dating as a single mum is not going to be the same as when you were a teenager.

Take time to consider how it will fit into your current life.

You can’t swan off when you like or spend hours chatting on the phone when you should be helping your kids with their homework.

Meeting someone you really like is a heady sensation; not even being a single mum can change that.

But don’t leap headfirst and then get frustrated that your home commitments are holding you back.

Keep your priorities foremost in your mind. In fact, a simple formula is a parent first, partner second.

Remember, if all goes well you could in no time be nurturing a relationship between your partner and your kids.
