This thing kills slowly and silently in the midst of the loud selfishness of people. I feel like someone is kicking me in the chest every time I think about what my husband and Enhle have done. But I now have to be strong for my son.
Affairs of the heart should not be taken lightly, much like physical abuse. People should think and really consider the pain they inflict in marriages and other relationships. The mental space is a fragile one. Let’s stop normalising mental pain.
So I have something very painful to say. Enhle Mbali Mlotshwa and my husband Justice Huni have been having an affair for years. They have been keeping this secret and this year they finally decided to tell me. They decided to tell me because they wanted her to join our marriage.
I know some of you are thinking that this happens to everyone. Well that’s the problem right there. My first thought was what if they have given me an HIV or an STD? I’m scared to go and get tested. This thing they have done has truly messed with my head.
