Exclusive: I Don't Think I Am A Good Wife -Helen Paul

 

Comedian Helen Paul

 The petite entertainer, who has two lovely sons she refers to as her best friends, praised her husband’s patience.

She said: “It has always been God’s grace because we don’t have room to keep marriages. In fact, I don’t think I am a good wife because sometimes I go to shows and forget that I am married then I get back late and begin to ask what are we eating. My husband will say, ‘Well I cooked something and I remained for you.’ 
“It’s just luck if you have a good man that is your friend, count yourself lucky. Not just about celebrities; it’s about how our mothers have trained these boys. Sometimes, boys will go and be playing ball and girls will be in the kitchen with their mum, so it depends on the home they come out from because if they should look at it me, I should be out of marriage but God wants me in. So, I thank God that Uncle Femi is my daddy and friend.”
Helen also advised young people getting ready to settle down to marry their best friends.
She said: “All that we seek is in the bible because I still need marital advice for myself. What I tell people is marry your friend not fake friends, don’t marry in a hurry. The fact that I married young doesn’t mean you will marry young but just know in your heart that the bible said we should be fruitful and multiply.
“I know as a wife you have to be submissive and patient. I do not go in the same car with my husband while going to church on Sunday because we both have different temperaments while driving. If am driving, I chose who I don’t want to give space, he too gives whoever he want to space (to cut in). You know the way we drag the road as if it’s our father’s property but if we are in one car we will be fighting. My husband is also a good cook.
“The young ones should just pray once they see the red light while they are still dating. Also take note of the family factor because both of you might be doing well and once family gets involved, that union is ruined.”
