A high court in Lagos, Nigeria has rendered the first marriage of star actress Stephanie Okereke to footballer Chikelue Iloanusi, null and void. The judge told the actress who had gone to court to divorce Chikelu, that the marriage never existed, so she can’t seek a divorce, only an annulment.

According to the judge, the marriage between Stephanie and Chikelue wasn’t valid because at the time they got married, Chikelu was legally married to another woman in the US.

Stephanie and Chikelue had a secret registry wedding some years back but they broke up less than a year later. Now going from the court’s judgement, Stephanie is not Chikelue’s ex-wife, she was never legally married to him. So when she marries Linus Idahosa her current fiance, it will be her first legal marriage.
