Speaking in an interview with Saturday Beats, Christabel Egbenya noted that she doesn’t see anything wrong in conducting a paternity test.
The actress also urged women who might have had an extramarital affair to open up to their husbands as some men don’t mind keeping the child.
She said;
“I don’t see anything wrong with conducting a paternity test. It is not always because the person suspects infidelity. There have been instances where children were changed and given to different parents at the hospital.
“If you did something (extramarital affair) outside and got pregnant, and you feel you need to open up to your husband, go ahead and talk to him. There are some men that might be comfortable with such situation, and won’t mind the woman keeping the child. It is wrong to hide such information from one’s partner.
“If the man wants to undertake the raising of the child; that is fine. After all, men go outside their marriages to have kids, and come back to plead with their wives.”
Egbenya also urged married men to cut off irresponsible friends who might want to lead them into getting into extramarital affairs.
She added;
“You should cut them off. It is marriage we are talking about; not dating.”
