At one point, I regretted that decision, but after that, I was like, ‘Oh wow, thank God I chose my path’. I didn’t talk about it to the press; this is the first time I am saying it.
“I left him because of the battery. For me, infidelity, yes, but it isn’t enough for you to let go of your man. But, if it’s battery, I advise any woman to, in fact, not take any of their property and run for your life because they will never stop.”
