Bisola Aiyeola discusses single parenthood and marriage

Nigerian actress Bisola Aiyeola has shared her perspectives on single parenthood and marriage during an appearance on the ‘In My Opinion’ podcast. Reflecting on her experience raising her daughter alone, Aiyeola stated that single parenthood is a demanding journey and not something she would encourage others to aspire to, noting that the burden of raising a child should not fall on one person alone.

Aiyeola also addressed the dynamics of marriage, questioning the necessity of the institution when domestic and financial responsibilities remain lopsided. She remarked that women often question the purpose of marriage if they must still manage all household and parental duties without support from a partner. While acknowledging marriage as an essential social institution, she emphasized that it is not the core of her life or the primary measure of her personal fulfillment.
