Kenyan actress and radio presenter Jacque Nyaminde, popularly known as Wilbroda, has shared insights into the intricate dynamics that culminated in the end of her marriage with her child’s father.
In an exclusive interview with a local publication, Wilbroda delves into the complexities of her personal journey, shedding light on significant aspects that contributed to the strain in her relationship.
A pivotal revelation revolves around Wilbroda’s realization that her frequent visits from relatives, especially her sisters, unknowingly strained her marriage. She candidly admitted, “My sisters were always at my house. I didn’t see a big deal with it until later on after we broke up; he mentioned it to his friend.” The continuous presence of her relatives created an overwhelming environment for her then-husband, who eventually expressed his discomfort to a friend.
Acknowledging her oversight, Wilbroda admitted, “I didn’t see that. Looking at it now, I’m like, I contributed to their coming. I went overboard. I enjoyed their company but it cost me.”
Reflecting on the changes she has implemented since then, Wilbroda revealed that she now refrains from entertaining visitors unless they come at her invitation. Emphasizing the importance of personal space, she highlighted the need for mental preparedness when hosting friends or relatives.
The interview also focuses on the challenges of co-parenting, with Wilbroda openly discussing moments of contemplating raising her child alone due to difficulties in maintaining a friendship with her child’s father. She admitted, “I can’t say we are friends (with my child’s father). At times you throw everything, and you say, ‘you know what, I’ll never call you again. I’m going to do this alone. Catch me if you can, but I’m gone.'”
Wilbroda also hinted at anger issues being a contributing factor to the relationship breakdown, recounting instances where her child’s father displayed extreme anger. This ultimately led her to make the decision to opt out of the relationship for the sake of her well-being.
The interview provides a glimpse into the complexities of Wilbroda’s personal journey and the valuable lessons she has learned along the way, offering a poignant narrative that resonates with many navigating the challenges of relationships and parenting.
