Veteran Ghanaian actress, Julie Juu has spoken candidly about her decision to relocate to the UK and leave Ghana, describing it as one of the best decisions she has ever made.
Julie Juu, a famous ‘Cantata’ actress has lived and worked in the UK for more than a decade. She shared her story about her stay in the UK at the Party in the Park event recently held in the UK.
She clarified that the initial intent of her first trip abroad was to see her kids as she was unable to attend their graduation ceremonies for personal reasons.
However, she said the comfort and care she received from her children upon her first visit drive her to relocate as she was also grieving her husband’s sudden death.
While she was away, she disclosed that her two biological children and other wards were taking excellent care of her, meeting all of her demands in terms of food, housing, insurance, and other necessities.
“After my husband, Nana Bosomprah, passed away, I felt incredibly lonely and sought solace in my children’s company. You know it is not easy to lose your husband suddenly,” she said. “I was so happy being with them that I decided to stay.”
“I have not regretted at all. I believe if I were living in Ghana, by now I would have been weak and frail with a wrinkled body. At the moment even if I stopped working my children will take care of me,” the actress said in interview with Zionfelix which has been shared on Instagram.
Julie Juu brought up the obvious contrasts between living in Ghana and living overseas, pointing out that she is living a very comfortable life free from difficulties.
She only returned to Ghana last year to celebrate her ten-year anniversary of being abroad.
