Veteran Nollywood actress Mistura Asunmo, popularly known as Iya 2D, has revealed why she encouraged her husband to take a second wife — a decision rooted in her dedication to her acting career.
In a candid interview on Kunleafod TV’s YouTube channel, published on Friday, August 29, 2025, Iya 2D explained that she made the bold suggestion to preserve her marriage while committing fully to her work in film. According to the actress, her passion for filmmaking was made clear to her husband before they tied the knot, and he initially supported her ambition.
However, as her career took off, filming schedules frequently kept her away from home for extended periods — sometimes over two months — which began to cause tension. “He thought filming would only take a day,” she said, “but it could last for weeks or even months.”
To prevent the strain from damaging their relationship, she advised her husband to marry another woman — a step she eventually embraced, as it gave her the freedom to pursue her career without guilt or conflict.
