Musician and TV personality Akosua Agyapong has spoken up about the growing trend of Ghanaian celebrities avoiding unions within the entertainment industry.
In a discussion on Graphic Showbiz, she disclosed her unhappiness with the situation. She stated that celebrities partnering outside the profession tend to have more successful marriages.
Akosua pointed out that celebrity couples often meet difficulties due to the shared fame. This, she says, leads to problems of distrust, anxieties, and doubts.
Having experienced this firsthand in her previous marriage to performer Amandzeba, she outlined the entertainment profession could bring about these obstacles.
“When both partners do the same work, trust issues arise. The constant public attention makes doubts inevitable, regardless of trust,” she said.
Agyapong put into words that marrying outside the industry might foster more guaranteed and enduring partnerships. She also reinstated that the continuous public scrutiny within the entertainment space could affect the trust level of celebrity couples.
“I have observed for a very long time that celebrities enjoy their marriages and also stay together for a longer period because their partners are not also in the limelight.”
She cited examples such as Sarkodie, Stonebwoy, Okyeame Kwame, Edem and Kojo Antwi to buttress her above statement.
