Mike Mondo’s relationship
In a conversation with his girlfriend Shiko Nguru on their podcast “Untitled With Shiko and Mike,” the couple shared stories about the journey with their previous partners.
Mike revealed that he stayed in a toxic relationship primarily for the sake of his children. He admitted that the relationship was so volatile that he once considered taking his own life as a way out of his struggles.
“The scariest part about my previous relationship is the fact that I had the capability of taking up my own life just as a solution to everything that was happening in my life,” Mike confessed.
Despite the toxicity, it was the thought of his children that prevented him from making a tragic decision.
“My only worry was my kids. I was like if you jump, who is gonna make sure they have everything they need? That is what made me stop. However, If I did have children then I wonder if I would have stopped, ” he explained.
Mike also feared that breaking up would mean losing access to his children, especially his secondborn.
“Also, my biggest fear was if I broke up with this person would I have access to my children? For my firstborn, I didnt have that fear but for my secondborn, that was my biggest fear. I also knew the kind of person I was breaking up with…
“What I hate is the fact that after this type of breakup, labels keep being thrown around like this person is this and that… I wonder why these break-ups can’t be smooth. I mean it’s not working, so si iishe tu hivo?” he said.
