Influencer and wife of singer Paul Okoye, Ivy Zenny, has advised women not to make marrying a wealthy man their ultimate life goal.
Speaking in a video shared on Instagram, Zenny revealed that she had already become a millionaire before beginning a relationship with the music star.
She argued that wealth should not be the main reason for marriage, noting that a partner’s riches remain their personal assets.
According to her, women should prioritise marrying someone who is generous rather than focusing solely on financial status.
While acknowledging that marrying into wealth can provide advantages and create opportunities, she stressed the importance of women achieving financial independence themselves.
“This is my take on the idea of marrying a rich man, and before you try to come for me, I was already a millionaire before I met this man. Get your facts right. To be honest, marrying a rich man should not be anybody’s primary goal. Because why should your primary goal be marrying somebody else because they are rich. at the end of the day, its their money not your money.
“I’d rather say you marry a generous person. But do not get me wrong, marrying rich is a good add-on. It can open doors of opportunities for you, but as a woman, get rich!,” she said.
