Mabel Breaks Silence, Confirms Split From Comedian AY Makun

Entrepreneur Mabel Makun has officially confirmed the end of her marriage with comedian AY Makun after speculation surrounding their relationship circulated earlier this year.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2008 and share two children, had faced rumors of marital troubles, particularly heightened when they unfollowed each other on Instagram.

These rumors were compounded by Mabel’s previous allegations of threats to her life.

On Sunday, AY Makun hinted at the dissolution of their marriage, stating that his “20-year-old friendship and marriage” were slipping away.

She appealed for privacy and respect, particularly for the sake of their children’s mental health and well-being, while dismissing false reports circulating on social media.

Mabel wrote: “I want to express my sincere gratitude for the supportive messages that I have received from everyone.”

“However, my silence should not be misunderstood and also the father of my children whom I have been with for some years deserves a certain level respect and privacy from me and all the concerned parties. Most importantly because of our children whose mental health and general well-being should be prioritized.

“Many lies have been peddled against me and attack orchestrated on the social media space but I will honour my kids with my silence and not address any of these lies.

“Although my dreams of a lifelong marriage has taken a different direction now, I’m committed to moving forward with grace and resilience. I have faith in a brighter future for both myself and the children. Despite the rumors or opinions, I find comfort in the belief that all will be well.

“While it’s unexpected for things to end this way, I quietly ask for guidance from my faith as I step into this new chapter of life. Also as we navigate this change, I ask for your help in creating an atmosphere of respect and understanding. This is a challenging period, and I ask for privacy and consideration as we (my ex-husband and I) find our own path forward.”
