Sophia Momodu Reveals What Happened After She Had a Child Out of Wedlock
Sophia Momodu has shared how people treated her after she became pregnant outside marriage.
Entrepreneur Sophia Momodu has opened up about the stigma she faced after becoming pregnant out of wedlock by a global superstar.
She said the experience pushed her to find her voice.
Sophia is a pastor's daughter.
Getting pregnant outside marriage was particularly difficult because of what society expects from Nigerian women.
She was mocked and faced intense negativity.
Although she was famous and popular, she struggled to have her own voice.
The negativity around her story drowned her out for a long time.
Being a pastor's daughter with a child outside marriage was considered a major taboo in Nigeria.
An aunt once told her that someone advised her to stay silent about it.
Black women are not supposed to talk about such things, she was told.
But sharing her experience publicly changed things.
When she spoke about it in South Africa at radio stations, she realized she was not alone.
Many women came to her and said the same thing had happened to them.
