Actress Scarlet Gomez speaks on her marriage and challenges of being a public eye

Nollywood actress Scarlet Gomez, widely recognized for her talent and multiple award nominations, including at the AMVCA, is considered one of the top performers in Nigeria.

However, she prefers to keep a low profile and stay out of the limelight. At 32, despite her success, she is often overlooked in the industry.

In a recent interview, Scarlet shared how she manages life as a public figure, admitting that she still finds it challenging to deal with the attention.

She explained, “I’m not going to lie, I’m still trying to get around it. Most times when my fans see me, they think they’re the shy ones, but I’m actually more shy than they think. When I run into my fans, I get anxious, I am sweating, I don’t know how to respond to them, and I don’t want to offend them because these people are really important to me. So in all honesty, I am still trying to get used to it.”

She also opened up about her marriage, expressing how her husband, Temi Gomez, has been her greatest support. She praised him for standing by her through difficult times, including her struggles with obesity.

Scarlet said, “My husband is an amazing man. He is my number one supporter, the love of my life. Temi Gomez, I’m so happy I chose you. No other man matters to me in this world, just him. My marriage stays strong today because of you. My husband is the essence of my existence.”
