Being a public figure is difficult because one has to deal with these failures in the public eye. For Minnie, these are her divorce and the end of her business venture with The Mansion.
Minnie addressed the allegations peddled against her and said as long as her family and friends know the truth. This after many speculated that the end of her marriage was due to infidelity allegedly on her part.
“When people over-sensationalise, over-dramatise, create lies about you, it’s one of the most painful things because I can’t shut from the rooftops to everyone and explain my truth. At the end of the day, I also feel as though I don’t need to. As long as my close family and friends know what the truth is and what is going on, those are the relationships and those are the people that I feel I owe an explanation to. Everyone else will just figure it out when they figure it out,” said the actress.
She then said her marriage ended way before she announced it, “People need to understand that when a marriage ends, it doesn’t end at the announcement or the day before the announcement, it ends long before that.
“By the time I announced, I had gone through a lot of the processes already. At the time of the announcement, it felt like a really big relief and a weight off my shoulders,” Minnie added.
She further stated, “I never imagined getting divorced. I always thought that I would raise my kids how I was raised. I just felt like for me, timing was off, I felt like I didn’t know myself. Furthermore, I went on to further lose myself in my marriage.”
“I think the failure part is on my part from not being able to pick up what was right for me at a time before I went all the way… You know, in relationships you always know, when you look back, you’re like ‘that was a red flag, and that was a red flag… you’re a red flag!’ I’m not pushing the blame in any way, shape, or form but you’re either a red flag and you’re not acknowledging it or they have red flags and you’re not acknowledging it.”

Minnie told Zimoja Lezinto, that she cannot wait to get her surname back, “I can’t wait to get my surname back, although I changed it on all my social media platforms. But it’s not official yet.”
They both addressed the allegations, “We have been made aware of various allegations regarding our divorce circulating on social media since yesterday. All the allegations made are false, damaging, and malicious. Fabrications of such a damaging manner are both unnecessary and hurtful in a matter that is already sensitive to us,” said the former couple.
