Since celebrities don’ t often date themselves, when they start dating, it attracts a lot of attention from their followers.
Having a private life is one of the difficulties that many celebrities face and can’ t live without. Despite efforts to maintain a private life, their problems somehow always end up on social media.
While famous people have been able to maintain their marriages and relationships and keep them private, others have had no control over it, which ended up on social media and caused a lot of drama for Ghanaians.
The entanglements that caused some drama on the timeline are highlighted in this article.
Medikal and Derby
Ghanaian entertainment fans were shocked to learn that Medikal and Deborah Vanessa, aka Sister Derby, split up in 2018 after repeatedly professing their love to the public. Derby, who is in her late 30s, was able to lose Medikal to up- and- coming actress Fella Makafui of YOLO fame who is in her 20s.
Sister Derby was predicted to be doomed by Ghanaian social media users prior to their abrupt breakup, but she has refused to heed their advice to this day. According to our cultural expectations, they believed that their age difference alone was a strong indicator that the relationship wouldn’ t last.
Their split caused a lot of drama on the timeline and was popular for several weeks.
Shatta Wale and Michy
Many Ghanaians were drawn to Michy and Shatta Wale because they were such a lovely couple. They had a baby boy named Majesty during their roughly 8- year marriage.
It’ s a shame that this lovely relationship ended about two years ago. Despite appearing to be so taken with Michy, Shatta Wale kept sending people to visit him and make appeals on his behalf.
Sarkodie and Yvonne Nelson
In the recent weeks, these two have given us a lot of drama, and more is still developing. In her recently published memoir, Yvonne Nelson made the claim that she had an affair with Sarkodie, became pregnant for him, and then had the child aborted.
Sarkodie released a 3: 16 second audio track to explain what happened with Yvonne Nelson because he did not like the fact that he was exposed.
The lyrics read ” You can’ t just play the victim and paint a picture that she was just looking for love” from all her previous amorous relationships, part of the lyrics went.
“I’ m not gonna sit here and lie, we had a thing. First I thought you were cool till I had a hint, ” he sang in English before stating in Twi that he thought he had gotten a good girl only to realise there were others in the queue after him.”
The chorus to the song is translated thus: “If you don’ t love me, leave me. Why are you pestering me? What is meant for me you have gone to give to Kwame. I have become teary.
“If you don’ t love me, leave me let me be. Someone else is longing to be with me, when you were leaving me you failed to notify me. Baby girl don’ t try me.”
He also add that He did not ask Yvonne Nelson to abort the baby and that it was her sole decision.
He asked her to keep the baby but she chose her education above the baby,
She declined his offer to have her examined and instead chose the abortionist her friend had recommended. Yvonne had also recently tried to get them to discuss the incident, but he refused to agree to her terms.
She waits to see how these revelations turn out as the drama continues.
Elikem and Pokello
Despite being regarded as a ” power couple, ” their marriage only lasted two years.
Elikem Kumordzie and Pokello Nare, the lovebirds from ” Big Brother Chase, ” rose to the status of relationship envy, especially after the former popped the question to the latter live on stage at the 2014 Vodacom Ghana Music Awards (VGMAs).
In an interview sometime in 2020, Pokello discussed the reasons their marriage fell apart ” Elikem is not ready to be a husband and unfortunately, after 4 years of trying to be patient with all his transgression, I just couldn’ t do it anymore” .
Afia Schwarzenegger and Lawrence Abrokwa
One of the ugliest and most scandalous divorces in Ghanaian celebrity history is that of Afia and Lawrence.
Afia Schwar and Lawrence’ s marriage flourished for about a year in an admirable display of love and romance before Lawrence caught her in the act sharing their bed with another man, recorded their naked bodies, and then let the world in on the secret!
Social media, in the same way, saw their dramatic breakup, which led to Pokello moving to Zimbabwe with their son Tristan.
