Actress Jackie Matubia has revealed details about her past relationship with her ex husband Kennedy Njogu. She stated that the major reason behind their split was because he forced her to be a house wife.
Matubia asserted that Njogu wanted to confine her in the home while he provided for their needs. Jackie was however not of the idea. She explained,
“I was married to a man who ensured I never had to ask for anything—he always provided. But there was a downside.
He wanted me to be a stay-at-home mom, which conflicted with my personality. I’ve always been the type to work and pursue something for myself. Being confined at home just didn’t align with who I am.
Matubia acknowledged that some women were comfortable with being housewives but it didn’t suit her.
“Being a housewife is a wonderful thing for many women, but not for someone like me. I have ambitions and a vision I want to achieve. That’s where the friction began,”
Matubia however highlighted that Njogu was supportive throughout their marriage and provided her with everything she needed. She said,
“He was very supportive. He bought me a car, we lived in a beautiful home, and he provided for everything, even the smallest needs. But I felt unsettled. I had this deep desire to work and not put my life on hold for someone else. I wasn’t at peace knowing I had paused my dreams,”
