Mabel Makun, the wife of Nigerian star comedian Ayo Makun, also known as AY, has addressed some of the misconceptions spread about her and her husband after their marriage ended.
There have been rumors that the movie actor and his wife split up over alleged adultery.
In a message posted on his Instagram page on Sunday, AY acknowledged that his marriage has ended but will not entertain the public with personal family concerns.
The comic confessed that he has found himself doing things he is not proud of, and it is heartbreaking to see his 20-year marriage and friendship slip away.
In addition, three anonymous female celebrities have been implicated in the failed marriage.
In an Instagram post, Mabel requested the public to respect her and her husband’s privacy in order to prioritize their children’s mental health and well-being.
She acknowledged that numerous lies had been spread about her on social media, but she would not respond because of her children.
Mabel stated that this is a difficult time for them and asked with the public to be considerate and private.
She wrote, “I want to express my sincere gratitude for the supportive messages that I have received from everyone.
“However, my silence should not be misunderstood, and also the father of my children, whom I have been with for some years, deserves a certain level of respect and privacy from me and all the concerned parties. Most importantly, because of our children, whose mental health and general well-being should be prioritized.
“Many lies have been peddled against me and attacks orchestrated on the social media space, but I will honour my kids with my silence and not address any of these lies.
“Although my dreams of a lifelong marriage have taken a different direction now, I’m committed to moving forward with grace and resilience. I have faith in a brighter future for both myself and the children. Despite the rumors or opinions, I find comfort in the belief that all will be well.
“While it’s unexpected for things to end this way, I quietly ask for guidance from my faith as I step into this new chapter of life. Also as we navigate this change, I ask for your help in creating an atmosphere of respect and understanding. This is a challenging period, and I ask for privacy and consideration as we (my ex-husband and I) find our own path forward.
“I wish him the very best in his journey as well. God bless us all.”
