According to the actress she wanted to marrry for the right reasons and not due to societal pressures.

“I wanted to be sure that I was married for the right reasons that stemmed from societal pressure,” she said.

“Even before I got married, the pressure was there for years, but I just turned a deaf ear.

“Like I always say, I will marry the man of my dreams and not the man society dream for me.
