Ghanaian media personality Afua Asantewaa Owusu Aduonum has confirmed that she is separated from her husband, Kofi Owusu Aduonum, but says the marriage has not officially ended.
Speaking during a TikTok Live session on April 1, 2026, Afua clarified growing public speculation about her relationship status, stating simply that she is not divorced but separated.
She explained that she is currently focused on healing and adjusting to the changes in her personal life.
The media star, who rose to national and international attention during her 2023 Guinness World Record sing a thon attempt, said the realities of living abroad exposed cracks in the relationship.
According to her, the distance made it difficult to maintain emotional and physical closeness, while also affecting the level of public support she expected.
Afua also indicated that she felt let down at certain moments, particularly when she faced criticism on social media. She suggested that her husband did not publicly defend her during those periods, which added to the strain.
The couple had previously drawn admiration from many Ghanaians during her rise to prominence, with their bond often highlighted as a source of strength throughout her record attempt.
However, questions about their relationship began to surface after her second attempt in 2024, when Afua posted a series of messages online that many interpreted as hints of trouble in the marriage.
Her latest comments now confirm that the couple are living apart, bringing clarity to months of speculation.
