Life in the limelight tends to be blissful, but on the flip side, harsh. A journey of happiness characterized by marriage is one that we all yearn for. However, for the celebrities, it has its downsides following job pressure, hype and image influence.
Nearly half of these fail to sustain their unions because of wrong intentions and the poor choices they make
Abbas Kubaff and Baby Gangsta
The marriage between rappers Abbas Kubaff and Baby Gangsta did not last for long as they separated less than 10 months after their vows on November 14, 2008, in front of 70 friends and family.
The problems might have started when the controversial rapper Abbas defied the honeymoon tradition and headed to Gilgil the next day for a concert which flopped.
Betty Bayo and Victor Kanyari
Betty Bayo shot to limelight with her 11th Hour hit single, which rocked the gospel industry earning her nods to several accolades.
Few people knew or even bothered about her relationship with controversial preacher Victor Kanyari until his TV antics were revealed.
After denying that she was involved in any of his theatrics, she dumped him and the two are now separated.
Mercy Myra and Attitude
A while back, this is what US-based rapper Attitude stated. “And for the record, what a big fat lie she’s been telling you guys!!! We are not divorced…not yet….Fast forward, Mercy Myra was the one smiling. She couldn’t hide her joy when her marriage shackles fell off, something which she described as an end of a chapter in her life.
Nazizi and Vini Leopold
The first lady of rap music got married to her hubby Vini Leopold at Jamia Mosque in 2008, and after few months, the couple had bought land and built a house in Lamu. However, as fate would have it, the two separated for more than a year before deciding to end the marriage.
