Nigerian comedian, actor and film producer AY Makun’s estranged wife, Mabel has confirmed split from her husband.

Mabel made the confirmation in the early hours of Wednesday, April 10 via an Instagram post.

In the post, Mabel expressed gratitude for supportive messages and acknowledged that though many lies and attacks have been orchestrated against her on social media, she will honour her kids with silence.

She also stressed that her estranged hubby deserves a certain level of respect and privacy.

The statement read in full:

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the supportive messages that I have received from everyone.

However, my silence should not be misunderstood and also the father of my children whom I have been with for some years deserves a certain level respect and privacy from me and all the concerned parties. Most importantly because of our children whose mental health and general well being should be prioritized.

Many lies have been peddled against me and attack orchestrated on the social media space but I will honour my kids with my silence and not address any of these lies.

Although my dreams of a lifelong marriage has taken a different direction now, I’m committed to moving forward with grace and resilience. I have faith in a brighter future for both myself and the children. Despite the rumors or opinions, I find comfort in the belief that all will be well.

While it’s unexpected for things to end this way, I quietly ask for guidance from my faith as I step into this new chapter of life. Also as we navigate this change,I ask for your help in creating an atmosphere of respect and understanding. This is a challenging period, and I ask for privacy and consideration as we (my ex-husband and I) find our own path forward.

I wish him the very best in his journey as well.

God bless us all,

Mabel
