The estranged wife of comedian Basketmouth, Elsie Okpocha, has delivered a statement to marriage shamers.
The mother of three posted a warning on Instagram about humiliating unmarried women. Elsie observed that women are stigmatized for late marriage and childbirth.
Despite its beauty, the recently divorced individual disclosed that marriage is difficult and requires effort.
"It’s only in this part of the world that people make a big fuss about a woman not being married at a certain age.
Aunts are frequently asked, "Why are you not married?" Elsie inquired if she planned to marry herself.
She added that, "People even go as far as suggesting that one give birth."
"When a woman isn’t married, it is because she is taking her time or hasn’t found the right one."
Touching on marriage, she said, "Marriage can be as tough as it can be. It demands effort.
A few days ago, the announcement of Basketmouth's divorce from his gorgeous wife, Elsie, rocked the internet.
On Thursday, December 22, the father of four made the announcement on his verified Instagram page, stating that he and his wife will co-parent their children peacefully.
The actor, who did not provide a reason for the divorce, was delighted that the public respected his and his wife's privacy.
The shocking announcement stunned many in disbelief, as it was widely known that the comedian was fond of telling pricey jokes.
"As much as it pains me to bring my personal life into the public space, this is an unavoidable situation."
"After much deliberation, my wife and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage."
"As we move forward separately, we will continue to work together to give our beautiful children all the care, love, guidance, and support they need.
"We humbly ask that you respect our privacy as we navigate through these times. "I'm grateful," he said.
