Austin Faani, the husband of Nollywood actress, Chacha Eke Faani has been receiving praise from netizens for standing by his wife during her tough times.
Kemi Filani reported that the Nigerian filmmaker and director had opened up on what it’s like living with a mentally ill partner
While speaking at the Meticulous People Foundation Outreach, a foundation that deals with mental illness, he opened up on the many sacrifices he made for his wife.
Austin recounted an incident when Chacha Eke broke the mirror in the House because she felt people were creeping out of it.

A clip of Chacha Eke testifying in a Church, and appreciating her estranged husband, Austin Fanni for sticking with her despite her mental struggle, surfaced online.
In June, the actress announced her separation from her husband and father of her four kids, Austin Fanni.
Detailing why she left her marriage, Chacha Eke said she chose to quit while she was still alive rather than leave as a corpse.
However, while testifying in the church, she revealed that she is back with her husband again, and thanked him for sticking with her during her trying mental health state”.
