Actor, Omar Sheriff Captan says celebrity marriages are seen to fall apart more often just because celebrities are in the limelight. He believes marriages including non-celebrity marriages are always falling apart. People don’t see those ones because they are not in the public spotlight.

Omar Sheriff whose marriage has also fallen apart shied away from discussing it when he appeared on Kumasi based KFM to promote his upcoming marriage TV reality show called “ten to bee”.


He told his host; Kwame Scientific the winners of the reality show will receive a cash price of GHC10, 000.00, a car and a fully sponsored wedding.


Auditions for Accra and Kumasi have already been done for the reality show which will be telecast on Viasat 1.

The actor who is also the Creative Director for the show explains the show is to help ten couples looking to get married achieve a successful marriage. Participants will live in a house where they do stuff together, undertake special tasks including debates, and undergo counseling and teachings in the rudiments of marital life.


He is worried the divorce rate in the country is so high and hopes the programme will help curb the growing trend.


Participants should be dating for at least three months to qualify for the show which is expected to become a TV success story. This is the first time such a show is happening in Ghana.
