I Can Marry Man Above 60 – Actress Linda John

Nigerian actress, Linda John has said that age is just a number and she has no issues settling down with a man who is above 60 years.

In a recent interview with The Sun, Ms. John said she prefers older marriages because experience has taught her that they last longer than younger ones.

The bold and beautiful thespian, however, said such a man must meet certain conditions.

She listed the conditions to include maturity, kindness and sensitivity.

She said, “When it comes to marriage, age is just a number. I have seen younger marriages break up in less than a year and I have seen older marriages last longer.

“So, yes I can marry someone above 60 that is mature at heart, kind and sensitive. When the heart beats in the right direction, everything falls in place,” the Benue-born actress said.

The actress recounted how she pulled out of a movie role because the director connived with the make-up artiste, costumier and production manager to frustrate her on the set because she refused to sleep with him.

“The conspiracy was too much that I later removed myself from the job. I didn’t even have transport money to go back to my base. I had to call my elder brother to send some money over,” she recalled.
