"The sadness she’s feeling inside her heart is beyond words. It is not easy when you give all your love, support, time, and everything, and in return, you receive betrayal. It is the hardest. 💔💔💔."

prissyannor said:

"I'm tearing 😭😭😭 that much because of this woman, because no one understands her pain, but now is the reflection on her past in the marriage 🤔 and lessons learnt in marriages like such. This is a typical Ghanaian marriage, where our mothers have stayed in pain, claimed as Mrs."

Goddess GH wrote:

"This is so painful to watch. God, please restore joy to this woman. Let her recover everything she’s lost before you call her home."
