I get many questions because he does not respond to queries. So I want this role to end with this interview. Anybody who wants to know anything about him, kindly ask him. When I go on TV to talk about my music and people ask about him, I end up in a dilemma, not knowing what to say. I don’t want that anymore.
So let’s get it out of the way then. What was going through your mind watching the expose’ on TV?
There was a power blackout in my home on that day. And I did not watch it. Still haven’t.
Not even a teeny weeny bit curious?
I deserve to save my data bundles for things that entertain me. And this is in the least bit not entertaining. Why would I watch it? I already know what was on it because everyone told me about it. And it is a sad story.
Were you shocked by the allegations?
Not in the least bit. I had gone through so much with him that I was just indifferent.
When you have gone through so much, stretched beyond your limits as a human being, you easily snap. I was not shocked. I was not expecting anything better than that.
But you have children together and lived together at some point…
You know what? I can’t really tell what life with him was like. We were both very busy people. Technically, we lived together for three years, but in reality that could be just one year.
I was always at my mum’s place having ran away for one thing or the other. When it all blew up, we were living separately, but hadn’t decided to end it.
Did the relationship end completely after the story broke?
I did not leave him immediately. It didn’t feel right to me to leave him in the mess. So I held on a little longer. And I had to forgive him. When I saw he was stable enough, I decided to leave. He had changed and become a better person but in my heart nothing would stop me from leaving.
