I’m Tired Of Being Celibate- Actress Alex Okoroji

Actress Alex Okoroji told Saturday Beats that she's tired of being celibate and ready to have se.x.

Alex broke up with Ghanaian actor, Omar Captan a few months after they got married.

On how long they dated, the actress said "I can't really tell you how long I was married. Sometimes, you won't realise that a relationship is over until it is actually over. It was shorter than 18 months technically,"

Alex who is blessed with a baby girl talked about being a single mother.

She said "You tend to be more self-sufficient. I'm playing double roles; being the dad and mum at the same time. It's a little challenging but at the same time, it's good. Sometimes, separation is not always a bad option."

When asked if she wants to get back to her ex, Okoroji said "No. I don't think so. I think he has moved on and I've moved on as well. So, I'm not thinking towards that direction anymore. I think the most important thing is for us to remain parents to our child. I'm not interested in being a couple. I just want everybody to play their roles. That's all. You can never stop being a parent, be it a father or a mother to your child, but you can stop being a wife or a husband."

The actress said she's not in a relationship at the moment. According to her, "I'm married to my work. My focus at the moment is working on my purpose and building on my career. I was distracted for a long time. At such times, you get married, have a child and focus on your child, but when that is out, I have another focus. Right now, my focus is on my child and my career. Every other thing is by the way."

Alex told the newspaper that she has been celibate for a long time and she's ready for sex.

"I've been separated for so long but a lot of people didn't know until recently that it came out in the papers. So, I'm absolutely done with my break, but I'm not in a relationship. I've moved on since then. It's possible to be on a break, and at the same time be focused on your work. You may not be in a serious relationship with someone but then, you are having a casual relationship with someone or you are seeing someone once in a while.

"I'm very open to dating but I'm not in a relationship with anybody. Right now, my focus is on my work but that doesn't mean that if somebody that I like or get along with comes, I won't give attention. I'll definitely be open to that. So, I've gone past my break."
