In a bizarre turn of events, a couple in Harare's high-density suburb shocked neighbors by hosting a party to celebrate their separation after the wife, Marvellous Mercy Kudzara, was caught cheating six times with different men.
John Kapita, who had been married to Marvellous for five years, said he had finally reached his breaking point after repeated infidelities. Despite the circumstances, the two decided to part ways amicably and mark their separation with a festive gathering, complete with music and dancing.
Speaking to H-Metro, John revealed that the separation was a way to reclaim his peace and dignity.
"My wife has been cheating on me several times with different men," said John. "At first, I forgave her considering that we had lived for more than two years without being blessed with a child. She later conceived, and our child is now one-and-a-half years old, but she continued cheating."
John explained that the decision to celebrate the separation was mutual and intended to signal a peaceful resolution.
"We sat down and agreed to separate peacefully, and that is why we played music to let our neighbors know that we have finally found peace," he added. "I allowed her to collect everything, and I am prepared to start a new life."
Marvellous made her exit using a truck provided by one of her lovers to move her belongings, adding another layer of drama to the unusual split.
Neighbors and John's workmates expressed concern for his mental health, with one colleague saying, "We are worried about John following his separation with his wife of five years. He might take his life because it is not normal for a man who has been cheated on to behave that way. We are checking on him daily."
Efforts to reach Marvellous for her side of the story were unsuccessful.
The couple's celebration of their separation has sparked debates among locals, with some questioning whether such a public display was appropriate, given the circumstances. Meanwhile, John appears ready to move forward, determined to rebuild his life after the tumultuous marriage.
