Empress Gifty: Divorce Is A Life Transition, Not A Curse
Ghanaian gospel musician Empress Gifty, who is controversial but vivacious, has cleared the air about the misconception that “divorce” is a bad thing that most Ghanaians hold.
Empress Gifty, a divorcee, says that divorce is a life shift rather than a misfortune.
Speaking in an interview on Channel One TV’s entertainment and lifestyle show dubbed “Upside Down” hosted by both Nana Tuffour and Frema Adunyame, Empress Gifty recounted how divorcing her ex husband has helped her.
According to her, “I have learnt how to forgive. I have learnt how not t insult your husband- even when you are right. I have learnt how to keep quiet. And i have learnt how to pamper a man- because that is all they want”.
Meanwhile, the songstress heaped praises on her mother and aunty, saying that had it not being the duo, she would have lost her focus.
She said, “it was a tough decision. Always going to church and all of a sudden you have to stop, you have to sit home and have memories. But i had the right people around me. When you divorce and you don’t have the right people around you, you would lose focus. So my mother and my aunty called Mama G were there to support me”.
She added, “In our world now, when you go into a divorce, it’s like a curse but you see, it’s a transition of life. It is something bound to happen”.
