Renowned Nigerian dancer and choreographer, Kaffy, has opened up about the personal struggles she faces as a divorced single mother.

Speaking in a recent conversation, the 45-year-old entertainer revealed that many men avoid pursuing a relationship with her simply because she has two children.

She condemned the cultural stigma surrounding divorced women, questioning why society often views them as “less desirable,” despite the rising number of marriages that end in separation.

Kaffy further argued that individuals who have gone through divorce and taken time to work on themselves may actually make better partners than people who have never been married.

According to her, true love should be about peace and security, not anxiety or constant worry.

Her words:

“I’ve had somebody tell me because I’m a single mother, I can’t even think about dating me because I have two children.

99% of the people that criticize me about my marriage are either not married today or have left their marriages.

What makes you think that a woman that has been divorced is not even the better candidate if she has worked on herself? What is the guarantee that the two single people today are not both going to be divorced people tomorrow?

Because why are people feeling like, I need to marry him fresh and I need to marry her fresh? But both of you are going into the same data that the world has computed for you.

There are over 70% of marriages crashed. You are part of the 70%.

Real love brings peace, not butterflies. Real love is not supposed to make you anxious. I’m still healing from those anxious feelings… I’m 45, but I’ve spent the last 10 years of my adult life trying to fix it.

My children were looking at us and I’m like, go. If you have to leave, go. You think I’m irresponsible? I know how responsible I am as a woman.

I don’t sleep around. I don’t do casual stuff. I even heard people say after I used him to collect children—my IVF champion—like I don’t understand.”

Professional dancer and Guinness World Record holder Kaffy provided insightful revelations about her dance journey during an interview on Channels Television’s Morning Brief show on Tuesday, January 16, 2024. Kaffy delved into the underlying motivations that fueled her passion for dance.

Her dance odyssey commenced with a distinct objective: fitness and wellness. “When I started, I was doing it strictly for fitness and wellness because I was using it for weight loss, because I was a size 16,” she shared. Kaffy emphasized that she discovered dance to be more than just a means of physical exercise; it evolved into a liberating tool, contributing not only to her physical health but also encompassing a holistic approach to achieving overall well-being.

Dance as a Haven for Mental Health:

Kaffy, reflecting on her journey, revealed that even before she envisioned dance as a profession, it functioned as a sanctuary for her mental well-being. “Before I even thought of dancing as a profession, I always saw it as something to help me with my mental health,” she shared. Growing up amidst the challenges of navigating a split parenting household, dance became Kaffy’s refuge—a space where she could escape and explore her own identity.

Empowering Others through Dance:

As Kaffy delved into the world of dance at the national stadium, she recognized its potential impact on others. “People needed some kind of escape, either for fitness or wellness reasons or just to have a place where they want to be,” she explained. This realization marked the initiation of her journey to empower individuals through dance, creating a space where others could find solace, mirroring the solace she had discovered herself.

Samklef took to Instagram to share photos of the late veteran actor. In his post, he shared his concern on the fact that the late actor received little or no publication pertaining to his death.

Whereas, the American rapper who died was celebrated by all and sundry, including Nigerian celebrities.

He wrote;

“Sad ???? I heard he also died yesterday. But no be Yankee celebrity so I understand. Rip to a Nollywood legend.”

Kaffy took to the comment section where she addressed why this was so and Nigerians shouldn’t be blamed.

In her case, she said that the Veteran actor had no social impact on her life while growing up unlike the American rapper, DMX.

Here’s what she wrote;

“Just because people posted about DMX doesn’t mean it’s fake love. Even a lot of people here saying don’t mind them celebrities etc, DMX was part of their childhood. I am not happy we lost a legend but the truth is he didn’t impact me the same way as DMX did and that not my fault.

We were born to consume more of the west than the motherland. Instead of pointing fingers let’s raise motherland together ????. We all would die one day and trust me not everyone would feel the same way when I am gone too. Some will just discover me. A lot may mourn me but not all definitely loved me dunno ????????‍♀️. RIP LEGEND “
