‘I’M NOT COUPLE GOALS, I HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS’ SARAH KABU EXPLAINS WHY SHE LEFT HER HUSBAND SIMON

Bonfire Adventures co-founder Sarah Kabu has disclosed hidden details of her failed marriage to estranged husband, Simon Kabu. In an emotional interview, Sarah confessed that her marriage has been on the rocks for a long time, and the things they have been showing on social media are only the good moments but she has been through pain while married to Simon.

“Seventy percent of what is in social media are blissful and beautiful good times we have had, but we’ve also had our bad times, which we don’t show on social media. Sometimes when I meet people and they tell me that I inspire them and we are a couple goals, but maybe at that time I’m going through issues and problems myself. I would meet some very simple couples who are inspired by me, and they tell me they look up to me. I wished I could have that simple life, peace of mind, and simple love. Sometimes I sit back and wish I were them,” she said.

Although her marriage has hit a snag, Sarah says that she believes in marriage as her parents’ union lasted for over four decades. She says she decided to call it quits after becoming sick of faking happiness in the name of ‘couple goals.

“I believe in marriages, and I know people whose marriages are working. Before I came out and said I do not want to be in the couple goals league anymore, I realised that sometimes you can lie until you lie to yourself. You could find that you are crying or going through a difficult time, but you have to smile for the cameras and assume things are okay. I don’t want to live a fake life anymore.”

Sarah pointed out that she became fed up with Simon and had resorted to a peaceful separation, but things took an unusual turn when it turned out to be of public concern. “We have been having issues for over 10 years and my new year’s resolution was to break away from marriage problems. I started discussing with him, a peaceful separation and co-parenting, but I would not want my marriage to inspire other marriages to break. They are things we should not have done, but we screwed up. Don’t fake things. You cannot lie to yourself. If things are not working, speak out.”

Sarah’s in-depth revelation about her marriage comes days after claiming that her children had been taken away forcibly by Simon as one of the many reasons that led to their separation.
