Veteran Nollywood actress Shaffy Bello has opened up on her love life, revealing she once dated younger men.
However, she said that the era of dating younger men was while catching fun, adding that time has passed.
In a recent interview, she however expressed readiness to get married again but to a mature man.
She explained that her current priorities have shifted towards seeking mature, meaningful connections.
“I’m no longer in that fun zone,” she said, stating clearly that any future relationship must align with her values and stage in life.
Shaffy said that while she remains open to the idea of getting married again, she has completely ruled out dating younger men.
“I have dated a younger man,” she said, “but I was having fun—and fun times are over. That season has passed.”
The actress emphasised that her current outlook on relationships is shaped by maturity and life experience. While the thrill of younger love may have once appealed to her, Shaffy now seeks deeper connections grounded in shared values and emotional stability.
“I’m in a different phase now,” she stated. “I want something meaningful, not just exciting.” The mother of two made it clear that, moving forward, compatibility, respect, and shared goals matter more to her than age or aesthetics.
