Nollywood actress, Mercy Johnson, has launched her own website as she celebrated her birthday as she clocked 34 on Tuesday.

In a series of post on Instagram, Mercy shared beautiful pictures of herself as she thanked God for adding another year to her age.

She also recounted how difficult it was for her to lose her mother so soon.

“I never expected to lose my mother so soon, and so suddenly, but it happened, life happened.

“No one can teach you how to cry with every fiber of your being and when exactly to stop crying.

“As long as we still have life, we will smile again, laugh again, love again and be born all over again…

“Thank you everyone for your love and support. Happy birthday to me,” she wrote.

When you look into the coming year, you never plan for the worst. You always expect that life will have a way to make itself better…. Sometimes, like this past year has taught me, there are other plans… life simply happens. I never expected to lose my mother so soon, and so suddenly, but it happened, life happened. No one can teach you how to cry with every fibre of your being and when exactly to stop crying. No one can truly teach you how to properly mourn a loss or fill up the empty painful, endless hole that death leaves. No one can….No one has that power but God.. Soon, you learn how, How to draw strength from the eyes and the smiles of those that love and truly care for you, You learn to find peace in the breaths you take when you wake up and in even in the taste of pepper soup. Sometimes you even learn from a comment or two or fifteen thousand. You learn how to cherish the great memories you shared, the laughs, the tears, the prayers, the victories. You learn that yes, life happens and yes sometimes we are powerless to change our circumstances. But as long as we still have life, we will smile again, laugh again, love again and be born again… Thank you everyone for your love and support. Happy birthday to me! 🥂 Jewelry @bland2glam Stylist @didiekanem Makeup @seun_williams Hair @ellaemmanuell Photography @timi.idowu www.mercyjohnsonokojie.com

Mercy celebrated her seventh wedding anniversary on Monday to her husband, Prince Odianosen Okojie.

Early this year, reports made the rounds that she was experiencing turbulence in her marriage after she deleted pictures of her husband from her Instagram account.

Speaking in an interview with Punch, she said: “There was absolutely no problem between my husband and me. I only deleted the old pictures on my Instagram page. They were old so I deleted them to post new ones.

“I am not letting my husband go. Even when he is angry, I would beg him. You see these beautiful rings that he has given to me, I am never returning them.”
