‘I don’t want public scrutiny’ – Mzbel on why she will never marry

Songstress Mzbel says she will never get married as she does not want the public scrutiny that comes with being married as a celebrity.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Fiifi Pratt on Kingdom FM, Mzbel mentioned that although she has been in several romantic relationships, she has never been married and does not intend to.

She said, “As for marriage, it is a no, although I have been in several relationships and dated multiple times.”

She emphasised, “I have dated several times to the extent that some men even gave me rings, including the ring I have on now. It was given to me by my man when I gave birth. Again, it is not a promise ring but a ring given to me because after a long period of dating, I gave birth for my man.”

Throwing more light on why she does not intend to marry, Mzbel explained that she does not want her peace of mind to be compromised and cited examples of celebrities who got married and suddenly people felt entitled to dictate the kind of lives they should live.

“It is not an issue of I don’t want to be married now. I don’t want to be married ever; I want and love my peace of mind. And if I meet someone who genuinely loves me and wants to be with me forever, we do not have to necessarily get married nor do we have to announce it to everyone through a marriage ceremony.

“Marriage literally is announcing to the whole world that you intend to be with this particular lady or gentleman, and that I think isn’t necessary. This is because once you do that, people would begin to dictate what you should wear and what you can’t wear. Have you not seen celebrities who are married and how people talk about them? I don’t want that,” Mzbel explained.
