Basketmouth’s estranged wife says she’s been blocking people asking her to ‘return’ to ex-husband

Elsie Okpocha, the estranged wife of Nigerian veteran comedian, Bright Okpocha, popularly known as Basketmouth, has a word for netizens who offer unsolicited advice to her to return to her marriage.

In a video for her Instagram talk series titled ‘Elsie’s Thoughts’ posted on her Instagram page, the realtor reminded the public that they had no idea what caused the separation in the first place.

“I don’t know why a woman would post a picture or a video of her living her life and you’ll go under the comment section and you’re seeing things like ‘go back to your husband’s house, I know you’re not happy’. How do you know that?

“Why would you think a woman would wake up and decide to leave her marriage just like that? No, it doesn’t work that way! Trust me, both parties would have tried to work it out, and at the point where it’s not working out, they go their separate ways. That’s how it works”.

Elsie continues, “It’s nobody’s business” adding that instead of focusing on the woman, “why not go to the man involved and tell him to go back to his wife’s house?”

She says she has been “blocking such entitled people” on social media and that she would “continue to block more people.”

In December 2022, Basketmouth announced on his official Instagram page that he and Elsie, who got married in 2010, were getting a divorce after 12 years of togetherness.
