Family Background

Ini Edo, is from Akwa Ibom state in the south-south part of Nigeria. She is an Ibibio woman from Onna Local Government Area. In Onna, the natives are predominantly fishermen because of its proximity to the Atlantic ocean.

However, the actress didn’t grow up in Onna. According to several reports, she spent parts of her growing up days in Uyo (her place of birth) and Calabar.

Growing up, Ini was the most stubborn person in her family despite the strict upbringing. But the father was still able to keep a close eye on her to make sure she did not derail.

The beautiful actress, though very wealthy presently, was not born with a silver spoon. She had a difficult time growing up but she had a goal which she is obviously achieving now.

Marital status: Is Ini Edo married?

This beautiful actress, has not had a beautiful marital affair so far. She divorced her husband, Philip Ehiagwina, a US based business man whom she married in November, 2018.

Both of them officially got married in a church wedding held in Nigeria. In February of the following year, another wedding took place in Houston, Texas, where her husband resides.

But unfortunately, taking the vows twice did not help in salvaging the marriage as the former love birds got divorced in 2014, just six years after the wedding.

And Ini cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce. Also saying that the distance between both of them did not help too.

But she said she is not regretting the divorce because she had learnt many lessons from it.
