Nia Long insists that marriage is not a “priority” for her.
The 41-year-old actress welcomed son Kez 8 months ago with boyfriend Ime Udoka.
She also has an adorable 10 year old son Massai from a previous relationship.
But she told Essence magazine that despite the negative feedback she gets from people, she is content where her life is right now.
“Marriage is not a priority for me,” she told the publication. “I’m
not saying I’ll never do it; it’s just not where we are as a family.”
“I’ll be at home with my man(seen below), having a perfectly loving time, and I’ll see all these comments on some site about how wrong I am for not being married. I don’t feel less loved or less loving because I’m not married.”
Nia recently reconciled with her own father after years of estrangement which has made her view life differently.
“I’m a lot calmer,” Nia explained. “Less clingy and demanding. When Ime has to be gone for long stretches at a time, I took it as an opportunity to nest.”
“I worked hard to have the career I wanted, but I’ve also been deliberate about my personal life. None of this is a mistake.”
