“I Felt Alone and Ashamed” — Maje Ayida Opens Up on Life After Divorce from Toke Makinwa
In a rare and vulnerable moment, wellness coach and media personality Maje Ayida, ex-husband to Toke Makinwa, has spoken publicly about the emotional toll of their highly publicized divorce.
In his heartfelt revelation, Maje admitted that the media frenzy surrounding the split left him feeling isolated, ashamed, and deeply affected.
“I went through a divorce and it resulted in me being in the press a lot. That left me feeling alone… I withdrew from society. I was ashamed of my situation. My self-esteem was affected. I found it very difficult to work.”
While much of the spotlight had previously been on Toke’s post-divorce journey, Maje’s account sheds light on the often-ignored emotional struggles men face after a public breakup. His story is a powerful reminder that healing takes time—and that vulnerability is strength, not weakness.
