'The only regret I had was my first marriage' Mercy Aigbe's estranged husband Lanre Gentry.


In a 2015 interview with Encomium Magazine, Lanre Gentry, who has now been accused of battering his wife revealed that his biggest mistake in life was his first marriage. He called his marriage to actress Mercy Aigbe a blessing at the time but we guess he is not feeling so blessed right now as his wife is said to be determined to leave him.

See excerpts on the interview below;

Was there any step you took in the past that perhaps called for regret.
The only regret I had was my first marriage. I regretted my first marriage because, when I wanted to marry, my father told me the lady I brought home wasn’t okay. He said I shouldn’t go on with the marriage. But as a young man, I went contrary to my dad’s wish. And the whole thing ended in a deep regret. But to God be the glory, my father will always say there is no regret in any marriage that has produced children.
Initially, I had it in my plan that two women would not have children for me. But man proposes, God disposes. So, that’s the only regret I have in my life. But as God would have it, I have been rewarded with another fantastic woman. As of today, I am very happy with what God has done for me in that aspect.
That means getting married to Mercy Aigbe is a blessing to you?
My wife is a serious blessing to me. We have been together for 12 years. So, I don’t regret having her as my wife. Mercy is a kind of person that really wants her home to work. She wants her marriage to stay. No matter any obstacle, my wife will say, “Lanre, this is my home, and I am not ready to leave. Nobody can pursue me out of my marriage to you.” And my daddy loves her. Everybody in my family loves her. She is also a lovely human being. She is not what many people think of actresses because she always stands by me. She is very homely. She is not wayward and she takes really good care of me. That’s what I can say about her.

The couple split following a blown out fight over a former benefactor of Mercy, a lady name Opemiti aka Queen Slayer who is said to be having an affair with her husband.
