According to Bolanle Ninalowo, his infidelity affected his marriage. He had to make amends after realising he had lost control over his wife.

The actor said this on an old edition of Chude Jideonwo's visual podcast. He noted that his wife eventually started to perceive him as an outsider in their home.

He said:

"The years when I was feeling too young and cheating all day, breaking her heart and everything to the years when I wasn't there and pursuing my dreams.
"But I forgot this was a human being that was taking records and taking experiences of her life as well. So, I became somebody that she didn't recognise anymore. At some point, I couldn't call her to pick up my call. The woman I had control over, I had no more control because she outgrew me."
