Popular Nigerian comedian, Ay Makun has confirmed rumours of issues in his marriage to his wife, Mabel Makun.
The couple were said to have ended their union but details were a bit sketchy. AY has now confirmed that his marriage is facing tough times.
In a cryptic post on Instagram, the entertainer explained why he will not patronize the media with his family issues despite “lies about me in all these blogs are traveling faster than the truth.” He maintained that he had a grown up daughter whose mental health must be protected, implying that he would not spill the details of his marriage issues in public for the sake of his kids.
He posted thus:
“Many people believe that staying silent simply means that one is incapable of dealing with issues. Projecting a negative narrative against someone who is not struggling to defend himself doesn’t mean he is weak. Some of us are just logical enough to understand the difference between opinions, values, beliefs, and facts.
The personality and ability that I possess simply confirm that i have reached that stage in my life where I can not be entertaining the public with deep personal family issues. They just might be too much to handle concerning the individuals involved. Not even when I have a grown-up daughter who has access to social media. Her mental health needs to be protected from seeing things she can not be proud of online.
Yes! Without compromising my family, i have found myself doing some things that i am not proud of today. It is one thing to watch my friendship/ marriage of 20 years slip off my hands, but it’s another thing for the parties involved to understand how to appropriate the blames in a space that is designed for most women to always play the victims and win. I can tell you for free that no one is completely INNOCENT enough to cast stones.
Presently, I am loving the way that lies about me in all these blogs are traveling faster than the truth. But my painful truth will eventually beat away all the lies.”
Rumours of their crashed marriage have circulated the internet for days with hints that Mabel may have moved out of their Lagos home.
