I called Sarkodie out of the house, sat in my car…Yvonne Nelson reveals how she broke the news of her pregnancy

Yvonne Nelson has disclosed how she broke the news of her pregnancy to Sarkodie.

Accordig to her, she was 25, and Sarkodie was 22 at the time, ” I won’t say I was too young to know how to protect myself, but I think I was naive. I was still that tomboy transitioning to womanhood and knew very little about the most important things about women.”

She added ” I knew nothing about safe periods and ovulation and the complexities of the monthly. I grew up with my mother but “vagina” and “penis” were like taboo words in our house The closest she had come to giving me sex education was when she once forcibly opened my to inspect my hymen.”

Yvonne Nelson noted that after that, her mother warned her that if she broke her virginity, she (Mother) would grind pepper and ginger and insert it down there.

“That was in my teen years. I was now much older and more independent, but I still knew next to nothing about my reproductive system and its cyde. I knew, at that age, that I could get pregnant. I tried to abstain as much as possible, and when it had to happen, I protected myself. But I lost my guard with Sarkodie and had to pay dearly,” she said.

Revealing how she broke the news, the actress said “I called him on the phone and said we needed to talk. He still lived with his mother and this was not the kind of news to break in the house. I called him out of the house when I got to Tema, and we sat in my Toyota Rav4. (He drove a Toyota Matrix at the time if my memory serves me right).”

“I sensed the intensity of his emotions when I broke the news to him. I could hear his heart pounding, and when he finally found his voice, he faltered.his message was however, unambiguous. He didn’t want the pregnancy. That would damage him and his career. The only option was to get rid of it,” Yvonne Nelson wrote in her memoir.
