Yvonne Nelson has made a lot of revelations in her book that has set social media and the tradition media houses ablaze. A lot of personalities including her colleague actors have commended her for the good job done with the book.
Yvonne Nelson has dedicated a couple of chapters to talk about her relationship. She spoke about marriage, and how she sees marriage now. The ‘Princess Tyra’ star mentioned that, she “prefers a partnership to marriage”.
“After James, I lost the essence of falling in love and believing in a man. My worldview about marriage also changed afterwards, and I prefer a partnership to marriage. I believe in a partnership, having someone you want and not having to sign a contract.”
Yvonne Nelson also questioned the reason behind signing a marriage contract. She doesn’t see that to be love, rather an acknowledgement that the relationship will not work. She concluded by saying “it doesn’t make sense to sign a contract.”
“If you are in love with someone, why do you sign a contract? Signing that contract is like acknowledging that it won’t work and the marital contract cannot save it. You can sign a contract to be responsible for the kids and for other commitments, but you cannot sign a contract to love someone.”
A lot more life lessons are in her book, “I Am Not Yvonne Nelson.” Grab a copy to read for yourself.
