Actress and reality TV personality Victoria Iye, also known as Vee, has declared why she no longer thinks marriage makes sense.
She emphasises that marriage is merely a set of promises that can be broken and that it is not a type of insurance.
Speaking on Clout Africa recently, Vee said, “Love and the institution of marriage doesn’t always coexist. I always say to my friends that, being married is not a form of insurance. It’s just vow and people break their vows everyday.
“I want to be in a place where I feel secure. Personally, I don’t feel marriage is all in all. Maybe it is because I am young and I haven’t experienced true love per se. I have only been in relationships. I haven’t settled myself to be with someone I really feel is my soul mate. For now, the concept of marriage really doesn’t make sense to me.”
Recall that AY Makun and wife Mabel makun marriage crashed recently after 20 years.
The comedian confirmed the development in a post on his Instagram page on Sunday.
He said he had reached a stage where he could no longer entertain the public with “deep personal family issues.”
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 blame 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 travelling faster than the truth. But my painful truth will eventually beat away all the lies.”
