Somizi Mhlongo, a South African media personality, recently spoke out on the topic of side chicks and the role they play in the breakdown of marriages or not. He took to his social media timeline to share his thoughts on the matter, and his words sparked a lot of discussion among his followers.
This comes after Enhle Mbali’s conversation was leaked, where she admitted to using protection with someone’s husband.
According to Somizi, when a side chick is exposed by a wife for causing problems in the marriage, the focus should be on the loyalty of the husband rather than the actions of the side chick.
He made an analogy of a situation where a husband cracks a boat and water starts coming in. Would the wife blame the water or the husband when the boat sinks? The husband is the one who allowed the situation to happen, not the water, he argued.
The wife can’t blame the water for board wrecking.
One could say that the wife has a choice to make in this situation. She can either stay and try to fix things or leave her cheating husband.
However, he pointed out that the wife cannot control the actions of the side chick. Instead, it is the husband who needs to be held accountable for his infidelity.
While Somizi acknowledged that the side chick is not entirely blameless in the situation, he stated that she has less to lose and therefore does not care about the consequences of her actions.
You can’t tell the side chick to leave because the wife has no control over her.
In conclusion, Somizi’s message is clear: the focus should be on the husband’s loyalty in a marriage, rather than on the actions of the side chick.
It is the husband who needs to be held accountable for his infidelity and not the side chick. The wife has a choice to make, whether to stay and fix things or to leave the cheating husband. It is important to remember that the side chick is not the cause of the problem, rather, it is the husband’s actions. The husband had a choice to stop or continue with the relationship.
Somizi did not mention any names due to the sensitivity of the conversation.
