Nigerian dance icon, Kaffy, has shared a deep reflection on her marriage, divorce, and life as a single mother, urging society to stop stigmatizing divorced women.
Speaking about her personal journey, the mother of two explained that being divorced does not disqualify a woman from love, especially when she has healed and worked on herself. She questioned the belief that only “fresh” unmarried partners are fit for marriage, stressing that even two single people today could end up divorced tomorrow.
“Why do people feel like I need to marry him fresh and I need to marry her fresh? Yet both of you are going into the same world where over 70% of marriages have cr@shed. What’s the guarantee?” Kaffy asked.
The award-winning choreographer also addressed misconceptions about romance, noting that many confuse anxiety for love.
“A lot of those butterflies in the tummy are actually trauma responses. Real love brings peace, not anxiety,” she said.
Kaffy revealed that despite the p@inful end of her marriage, she has spent the last decade working on herself while raising her children responsibly.
“My kids even told me to leave if I had to. I know how responsible I am. I don’t sleep around. I don’t do casual stuff,” she stated.
At 45, the dance queen says she is still healing from the emotional toll of her marriage but refuses to see divorce as the end of her worth. Instead, she believes it is part of a growth process that does not define her ability to love or be loved again.
