Personal life
Renowned actress, Patience Ozokwor, married her late husband, Emeka Ani, when she was 19, in an arranged marriage.
According to her, her parents forced her to get married at such a young age despite many bids at the time, for unknown reasons but probably influenced by the polyandrous family she was born into.
Despite the difficulties in her marriage, she persevered and in 2000, her husband passed away. Before his death, Patience Ozokwo’s late husband became her true partner. According to Patience Ozokwo, she still misses her husband many years after his death.
The famous and most loved entertainer has three biological and five adopted children who all share her name. Her son owns a music company in the United States and is passionate about the entertainment industry.
She also has a daughter who is also well versed in the industry, but neither of them has attempted to break into the Nigerian film industry. Her son and daughter are now married.
