Controversial Nollywood actress Esther Nwachukwu has stated that the caring nature of married men is the reason why she would consider dating one if presented with the opportunity.

Listing more reasons she would jump at the offer to be the side chick of a married man, Esther Nwachukwu told The Punch “I am not dating a married man but if I see one, I will date him.

“They (married men) are less stressed and they take care of women better than single guys. If a married man has a girlfriend, he would take care of the girl. But, single guys have divided attention; they are always jumping from one woman to the other.”

Asked if she didn’t nurse any fear of being disgraced or attacked for dating a married man, the actress said, “It depends on how one handles it. One just has to respect the boundaries, and don’t interfere in his marriage.

“As a ‘side chic’, one should not call him when he is at home. As long as he is taking care of one, one does not need to blackmail him with his family. It is when one disrespects the family that it becomes dangerous.

“Whether I date a married man or not, a side chic will date my husband. It is normal. It is the nature of men to cheat. The important thing is for him to respect me.”
