On the day Patience’s husband died, she was shooting a movie on location. Upon hearing the news from her family that he had died and that they had put him in a mortuary, she stopped shooting – strongly despite the wishes of the movie producer, but Patience didn’t care. She took her needed time off and eventually came back to finish the movie – but in the end, she did right by her husband and was by his side even after he had gone.

She never re-married. Everytime she talks about her husband, she says that she misses his companionship and how they worked as a unit to raise their children. He’s alive forever in the heart of Patience and her children.

Her Children

Patience Ozokwo reportedly has 3 biological children, and 5 adopted children.
