In a heartfelt testimony delivered at a recent church service, Sharon, wife of Nollywood actor Shawn Faqua, shared her inspiring journey of overcoming a painful divorce in 2023 and rediscovering love through faith.
Nollywood Life earlier reported that actor Shawn Faqua married Sharon traditionally in grand style on Friday, October 17, 2025. A-list actors and celebrities in the entertainment industry, including Ebuka, Stan Eze, Kate Henshaw, and others, graced the event.
In a new video seen by our correspondent, Sharon opened up about the devastating moment her previous marriage unraveled. “In 2023, my life took an unexpected turn,” she said. “My ex-husband woke up one morning and declared he no longer wanted to be married. Despite no major issues, the shock was overwhelming. I held tightly to my faith to survive that heartbreak.”
Guided by Pastor Tefa to connect with Pastor Monica, Sharon found strength through spiritual support and prayer. “Weeks later, I attended a service where Pastor Winston addressed the pain of divorce,” she said. “That message spoke to my soul, and I vowed to God that I’d share my testimony to uplift others.”
Though initially reluctant to speak publicly, Sharon embraced the call to share her story. “I hesitated, but I understood God’s purpose for me,” she explained. “Whether it’s divorce, loss, or hardship, God’s healing power is real, and I’m proof of it.” Sharon’s testimony has sparked widespread admiration on social media, with many praising her courage and faith.
