“He confessed to cheating, then started eating his food while I was on the floor crying.” — Toke Makinwa
Right after he confessed to cheating, he started eating his food while I was on the floor crying
I was honestly not ready for the depth and breadth of the conversation I had with her.
From her divorce to seeing both her parents laid into the ground on the same day. She lays it all out.
I am amazed how she turned the ‘pressure of scandal’ and fed off it.
Toke Makinwa talks about everything:
Losing both parents as a child.
Growing up with foster parents.
Her marriage.
The cheating.
The divorce.
Her relationship with the church.
The questions about her lifestyle.
How hard she works.
And so much more!
The Phenomenal Toke Makinwa: From Pressure To Power!
“I wish my ex-husband had walked up to me to say ‘Girl you know I’ve done something’. I mean, I tell people, regardless of what you guys saw play out in the media, that was my guy. That was my friend. Many years have passed and sometimes you have this moment where it’s still unbelievable because at that time I was young, but I fell hard in love with this guy.
He was the best thing that ever happened since sliced bread. Nobody could tell me otherwise – This was my friend. So to go through that sort of betrayal, nothing compares, there’s absolutely nothing I can say, you know, to explain the things that went through my head.
“There were no hold hands, or baby can I tell you something, or I’ve wronged you, it wasn’t that. It was all lies. So, it went from, ‘It’s not true, it’s not true’, to ‘Okay, I’ll confess and it’s true’ and that was it.”
“And right after he confessed and told me that had happened, he still asked our chef to give him food, and he still ate while I was on the floor crying…”
She shares with me, the greatest lessons all of these experiences have taught her and how she grew from pressure to power in the midst of all of this.
This conversation left me excited, intrigued, inspired, and in awe.
Thank you, Toke, for sharing with such an open heart, and with power and clarity.
You are iconic.
