September 15, (THEWILL) – Media personality, Toke Makinwa, says she would have stayed and compromised in her marriage with her estranged husband, Maje Ayida, if they had a child together.
She got married to fitness entrepreneur, Maje Ayida, in 2014, but the marriage was dissolved in 2017.
Toke stated that she would have become one of those women who stayed in their marriage for their children.
“Sometimes I feel a lot of women stay in unhealthy marriages for the children’s sake. For the longest, you hear so many women say things like, ‘the marriage is done but I only stay for my kids.’
“And I’m going to be honest here, if I have had a kid while I was married, I may have been one of those women. Because I also had the trauma of losing both parents at the age of 8. I was adopted, I have a great life which I’m thankful for but there were times that I wondered what life could have possibly been like if that didn’t happen.
“So, for the sake of my children, I may have had to compromise just because I would have wanted them to have their parents together. I may have been one of these women. So, I’m not even judging anyone right here.”
