A Nigerian mother of three children tells the story of how her husband flew to America for cancer treatment, only to fake his death and start a new life with another woman.
Dr. Gbadebo Adeoye, a relationship advisor, shared the tragic tale on his Instagram page after receiving an anonymous account from the woman.
The woman explained that her husband used their home as collateral and sold all their possessions for his medical care in the U.S., but refused to let her go with him.
How I found out my husband faked his death, remarried in America
“My husband was taken to the US for cancer treatment. He won’t allow me to go with him. His sister went with him. Despite being told that he had passed away and was buried in America, I later found out that he was alive and married to another woman, and had sold everything we both worked for, leaving me and my three kids with nothing.
“However, I have come to accept the situation and have chosen to focus on the positive aspects of my life. I am grateful for my children, and for the fact that we have a roof over our heads and are living with my supportive sister in Badagry. I also recently got a job, which has enabled me to move back to Lagos and start afresh.
I have decided to let go of the hurt and pain that my husband’s actions caused me, and instead focus on building a better future for myself and my children. I am confident that with hard work and determination, we will be able to overcome this difficult situation and come out stronger on the other side. In 2017 they sent me pics of his funeral to fool me. I almost walk into the bush.”
After the treatment, he contacted his wife to say he might not make it, and soon after, news of his death arrived. However, she later discovered that he had deliberately left her and their children to begin a new life with another woman.”
