In the wake of celebrity divorces and cheating scandals, their marriage is worth celebrating and a source of motivation for the youth and would be married couples.
In celebrating her husband who turned a year older 7 weeks ago, she wrote this on her Instagram page: "My love for you grows and grows forever. Even after 40 years of marriage, I am always discovering new reasons to love you. You’re an amazing husband and I feel so lucky".

Nana Ama McBrown and Maxwell Mensah
On August 5, 2016, Nana Ama McBrown tied the knot with her boyfriend of many years, Maxwell Mensah at a strictly by invitation ceremony. Two years into their marriage however, there were speculations of trouble in paradise as many begun to predict collapse.

One person who was very optimistic about the collapse of the Mensah's marriage was George Lutterodt. On Adom FM’s Entertainment Hall hosted by Mike 2, he said the marriage lacks the biblical foundation which mandates the man to be head of the family. The couple welcomed their first child in March 2019, after trying so many times.
