I’m watching my 20 year marriage slip away – Comedian AY confirms split from wife Mabel

Popular Nigerian comedian Ayo Makun has confirmed rumors that he’s split from his wife Mabel Makun following inconsolable differences.

The comedian took to his Instagram page to address the reports as he said that he was mindful of reacting so as to protect his daughter.

He stated that though the media space was more inclined to see women as victims, he was not the only guilty party in the situation.

Ayo said that he wasn’t fully innocent but other parties, presumably his wife Mabel, were not also blameless.

He however said he was enjoying see the narratives that painted him as a bad guy.

He wrote:

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.
