BasketMouth’s ex-wife offers advice to women amidst cheating husbands
By Jennifer S. Kuwanta
Entrepreneur and former spouse of BasketMouth, Elsie Okpocha, delivers a powerful message urging women not to internalise blame for their partners’ infidelity.
Drawing on the recent example of Cardi B, who openly shared her pain on Instagram Live after facing betrayal from her husband Offset, Elsie emphasises that a man’s decision to cheat is independent of the woman involved.
Elsie reflected on the perplexing scenario of successful, funny, and attractive women like Cardi B experiencing infidelity, asserting that, in reality, 80% of the time, a man’s infidelity has little correlation with the qualities of his partner.
She dispels the notion that being beautiful, intelligent, and adept at domestic skills can prevent a man from straying.
Encouraging women not to shoulder the blame, Elsie advises against self-criticism and emphasises the importance of choosing a kind partner. She advocates for marrying someone considerate, even in moments of indiscretion, ensuring that the partner avoids causing humiliation and disrespect.
In sharing this empowering message on her Instagram, Elsie Okpocha addresses a common struggle faced by women dealing with infidelity, shedding light on the need for self-worth and the significance of selecting partners who prioritise mutual respect.
