Dakore Egbuson-Akande may be married to the son of a billionaire but according to the actress, it doesn't make married life any easier! In a recent interview with Enquirer spilled the beans about the challenges in marriage, plans for more babies, and a possible Nollywood come back.
How old is your daughter now?
She is almost two and to see this helpless little baby now growing amazingly is so interesting. She has started talking gradually, she calls me mama. Let me tell you, it is not easy to be a mother.

No, it is very difficult because I almost had to put Dakore the actor in a separate world. I had to put that on pause so I could focus on being a wife and a mum so now I’m coming back and I thank God for my fans who had been so supportive and patient.
I really hope through me they will understand that a woman can have everything, but not at the same time.

How many more kids are you planning to have?
I don’t know. I am just enjoying having a baby. She is just two years, so I am not in a hurry. God knows my baby means the world to me. She inspires me to want to go back to work. I don’t mind if she ends up an actress. She can do whatever she wants to do in life. I will only encourage her.
That means your husband is not telling you not to act anymore?
No! He never did.
The news was that your hubby and father -in-law asked you to stop acting, how true is that?
You know what, I’m hurt because I’m also a journalist. I studied journalism at the University of Lagos (Mass Communications) so I know what I’m supposed to do if I hear a rumour or have a story. All you journalists needed to do was to call me to verify the story but nobody reached me.
But we heard it was part of the conditions your father in-law gave if you must marry his son?
It’s totally false and has no iota of truth. If that was a condition, I would run the other way and not marry Olumide.
So now that you have started acting, will you still play romantic roles?
I have to consider my husband before taking any role these days. I will not do romantic roles as I used to back in the day. Though, if I get a role that is good and positive, maybe I could act. I am now a mother and a wife. I just have to be more discerning about them.
Don’t you feel threatened by the new faces in Nollywood?
Why should I? The truth is I can’t be threatened by any new faces regardless because I am Dakore and unique in my own way so also are they. And we should be happy for them because we need new faces too to grow. It can’t in anyway affect my market value because everyone has their style.
How is your husband coping now that you are back?
He is doing very well. I must commend him. He understands the nature of my job and he has been very supportive, he is my greatest fan ever. My husband is a very confident man and he understands it’s my job so he is not jealous that I am in the limelight.
