A couple of days ago, actor Kalu Ikeagwu and make up artiste Ijeoma Eze’s romantic pre-wedding photos was online and went viral. In a recent interview, the handsome actor who will quit the bachelorhood on the 25th of June in Enugu shared his unromantic sides and how he proposed to his girlfriend during a funeral.
” I proposed indirectly like I said earlier and I put her on the spot. Immediately it occurred to me that I cannot let her go, that she is a keeper and someone I cannot afford to loose. At my uncles funeral, when we were about to start the funeral. I was speaking with one of my uncles when she came to me to collect my car key and I held her by the waist and told my uncle that she is the one I want to marry. He looked at me and said, “are you sure? I said I was very sure. He turned to her and asked her if I was her choice and she shyly said Yes,” he narrated.
Talking about his unromantic side, the actor said, “I am very shy when it comes to these kind of things. That was very manipulative of me because I chose to kill two birds with a stone. I wanted to tell my uncle how serious I was and I also wanted her to say how serious she is about me in front of my uncle. To me that was more important than any romantic proposal. I am not romantic. I am boring if that’s how you and many others see me. No apologies whatsoever. I may learn in the marriage. She is not that Romantic herself.”
The excited groom-to-be also revealed he has a step daughter, thus his new family will give their nod before he accepts any film script, “I have a step daughter and I keep asking my wife-to-be which of my movies has she seen. If it’s the one I was a bad guy or the ones where I am a good guy. So I thought about this question you just asked and I realized that I am like a role model to my family. My family would have to inform the roles I take on from now wards. I might not be going naked in any movies anytime soon. I don’t think I will give up being a bad guy in movies so far as it teaches something. But if will be vulgar, I would hands off.”
