Controversial Nigerian relationship expert, Blessing Okoro, recently expressed her views on married men who have children outside of their marriage with their mistresses and choose to keep it a secret. In her discussion with Arise TV news, she argued that some men do this as a way to maintain peace in their already existing marriage.
According to Blessing, these men have children with their mistresses as a gesture of love, especially when they cannot offer them marriage anymore. By having children with them, they aim to provide something for their mistresses to hold onto, proving their love and commitment. However, to avoid chaos or disruption in their married life, they decide to keep the children a secret.
When asked about the potential effects on the children involved, Blessing suggested that there are numerous factors that can influence a child’s upbringing, and it is essential to acknowledge the reality of the situation.
Additionally, Blessing urged mistresses to respect their men’s decisions when they choose not to take the children home, understanding that it might be for the sake of preserving the peace and stability within their families.
