Adjetey Anang's wife Elom has admitted that she once pressured her husband to give up acting out of concern that she would lose him to fame. Adjetey Anang is a well-known actor from Ghana.
Elom Anang describes how her desire to the actor at the start of their relationship almost caused her to be selfish in Chapter 10 of Adjetey Anang's autobiography, "Adjetey Anang: A Story of Faith, Imperfection, and Resilience".
Elom claimed that she attempted to persuade her husband out of it because she was worried about losing him to fame.
She confessed in the book, "When I realized I was attracted to Adjetey, I decided to be selfish because I was afraid I might lose him to acting."
Elom continues by saying that Adjetey took her advise to heart and chose a different course, but it did not turn out well for him.
"As a result, I actually made an effort to talk him out of it by telling him, among other things, that acting didn't pay well. He actually paid attention to what I had to say before behaving in a totally unrelated area for a time. He didn't like the new direction I was pushing him, though," she recalled.
He began working for a packaging company, but it quickly became apparent that he wasn't suited for that. He was clearly receiving results, but his life didn't seem to be fulfilling him, she explained.
