Fran, the estranged British wife of actor, Yomi Fabiyi, has said that the actor didn’t marry her in order to get his green card.
Before now, Yomi Fabiyi had announced
via his social media pages that he was divorcing Fran, whom he had been
with for about four years.

The actor stated among other things that
the main reason he was separating from his wife was because they could
not agree on where to live together as husband and wife.According to Fabiyi, the plan they had
before marriage was that his wife would move to Nigeria but she later
developed cold feet and this led to a crack in their relationship.

He posted on his Instagram page, “It’s
so sad that a lot of people never give me the benefit of the doubt. Only
a handful think it is right to respect my freedom of choice. I have
been unlucky in life, most of what I do normally have opposite
impression irrespective of my positive mindset. I cannot help it and
will rather prefer to continue to be as real as possible, I am used to
being misinterpreted my entire adult life. I never aim to hurt anybody
in words or actions before them or behind them. I am never raised that
way. Hopefully Fran accepts my proposition to end this marriage now as I
cannot continue this way, I am not happy anymore as we edge close to
the 4th year anniversary. Fran is such a beautiful woman, supportive and
wish I come live in England, take up employment and study. I have used
her documents to renew my normal visa only, so no question she is not
willing, I never said that. With all humility, if she never promised me
she was coming to take up employment in Nigeria and live with me, maybe
we might not have secured the dating. I have made it abundantly clear I
am not prepared to live abroad as my career was just gathering shape
then. I am focused on my career and keeping my fans and admirers
entertained. I have an absolute right to do whatever makes me happy
provided it is nothing criminal, illegal, immoral or anti-social. I am
NOT interested in the reason two adults came together. It’s crude and an
uncivilised thing to do for me. I hope to find true love again while I
push for a hitch-free divorce as soon as possible. I will be fine guys.”

Both friends and foes had insinuated that the actor married his oyinbo wife in order to legalise his stay in the UK.
However, when Saturday Beats placed a call across to Fran in England, she sounded unhappy about the divorce but seemed to have resigned to fate. She told Saturday Beats
that she was very sure her husband did not marry her because of a green
card. When asked if she was still in love with her husband, she replied
in the affirmative.

“I am still in love with my husband but
we cannot keep living this way. I wish there was another way we could go
about it but there is none. It is true that I agreed to relocate to
Nigeria after marriage but plans changed and I cannot relocate from
England. I understand that my husband cannot also move to England but we
cannot keep living like this for the rest of our lives. I am very sure
that he married me because he loved me and not for any green card. If he
wanted a green card, he could have married a British-Nigerian or any
other race,” she said.
