Her ex, she claims, would always beat her at the slightest provocation and blame his behaviour on his upbringing.
She explained how she once posted a photo of herself wearing his sunglasses after he gave her a black eye and everyone was drooling and praying for her kind of life, not knowing that she was suffering in silence.
She went on to say that his mother was somehow supporting his behaviour because she would always warn Alex not to upset him.
“I almost got married last year. I mean I was proposed to but I chose me. I chose life. How can I be with someone that hits me?
“He always tried to show the world that we had a perfect relationship but I had a black eye and wore his expensive shades to cover it up.
“I can remember my caption when I posted that picture “Rich and getting it”. I had comments like “show us the way, cut soap for me, you are the fashionista”.
“My dear your fashionista was covering her shame. I could have chosen to stay with him, won’t my children have to constantly watch their mum being hit?
“What kind of effect will it have on them? Will they be traumatized? Will they become bullies? Will they learn to hurt others?.
“There are relationships where people are free to be happy. I wanted that. I wanted a happy family so, I sacrificed my unhealthy relationship before I sealed it.
“I saw the signs and did what I to do on time. Andre’s mother is also a bully. She will constantly tell me to treat her son like a king so he won’t be upset and hit me.
“He will but me for disagreeing with him, for complaining about his late nights, for smiling for too long, for not making fresh meals three times a day, for wanting to go out with friends…”, part of her post reads.
