Gospel minister Ernest Opoku Jr. has expressed his regret over his past relationships with younger women, acknowledging that it has severely damaged his reputation.
He laments that false narratives about him have been circulating, largely due to his ex-girlfriends’ inability to keep their mouths shut after their breakups.
Opoku’s remarks were prompted by the controversies surrounding his involvement with popular actresses Tracey Boakye and Nayas. Both women have consistently shared intimate details of their relationships with Opoku, as well as the issues that arose during their tumultuous love affairs, which were plagued by prolonged misunderstandings and eventual breakups.
Opoku, a devout gospel singer, is deeply troubled by the damaging impact of these claims on his reputation. Each time Boakye and Nayas make public statements about their relationships with him, his name is further tarnished, dragging him through the mud.
“The women I once dated are immature. If they had not broadcasted all our escapades, nobody would have known anything. Personally, I haven’t made my private life public. They were the ones going about telling the world such stuff. They are so immature. They make these statements and now people judge you and start to perceive you in a certain light. It was so embarrassing,” he told Delay.
Ernest Opoku, however, said out of the many relationships, he only has two kids with two different women.
According to him, his second child was from his failed marriage and he still plays an active role in the lives of each of his children.
“I have two kids. My firstborn is 15 years and my secondborn is 12. I had my first daughter before my failed marriage. I do go to the US to visit my second child, the other time, I even went with him on a trip to the United Kingdom. At times I am with my daughter in Ghana. I am very much present in their lives,” he stated.
