The marriage scandal: that akward moment when celebrities are in the deep.

Celebrities are after all human and their social standing should never mislead them into thinking they are supernatural.

The manner in which musician Mathias Mhere’s matrimonial issues with his wife Susan have been handled leaves a lot to be desired.
The transitions that Zimbabwean societies have gone through have left no formula as to how one deals with matrimonial issues

Cases of infidelity have been known to be dealt with in accordance with people’s culture, with the involvement of aunts and other family elders expected to bring finality and mutual understanding.
This week, however saw the popular gospel musician’s life becoming a living drama that kept Zimbabweans’ eyes and ears open to see and hear how the musician would handle the case.
The publication of a thread of intimate WhatsApp messages between his wife of six years and Mhere’s close friend Gift pointed to a great degree of infidelity.
Questions were raised pertaining to who might have leaked the messages, with many fingers pointing at Mhere himself.
But why would Mhere — a religious young man — wash his dirty linen in public and choose to have his marital issues dealt with in the media?
To many, he is the victim and has received sympathies from music lovers.
Some are even waiting for a chance to get to meet Susan so they can give her a piece of their minds.
It seems the world sympathises with cheated spouses in spite of their own shenanigans.
But if at all this is true and not fabricated, the simple prediction is Mhere, like any other celebrity, will suffer torture due to the “I am important attitude”.
Celebrities worldwide try by all means possible to prevent their private lives from getting into the public domain and it is shocking that in this part of the world they freely dish the information to the prying paparazzi.
