South African rapper, Kiernan Forbes, popularly known as AKA, has broken the silence after the death of his fiancée, Nellie Tembe.
The
rapper’s fiancée had died earlier this month after she fell from the tenth
floor of the Pepper Club Hotel in Cape Town.
AKA paid lobola to Nellie’s family in March after the duo
got engaged in February this year.
Speaking on the demise of his heartthrob via a statement,
which he posted on his verified Instagram page, the rap artiste said that he
had lost ‘the love of his life.’
He wrote, “I have lost the love of my life… and every day
feels like a mountain to climb. I miss Anele, so much, and I’m heartbroken at
the unfulfilled life we had planned together.
“The tragic loss of Anele has taken a great toll on me,
emotionally and psychologically. Insinuations and innuendos made on my
personhood have made it even more difficult to process and the strain our
families have taken is unspeakable – which is why at this time, I choose to
retreat to honour my journey, praying that the moments of stillness may bring
me closer to some clarity.”
AKA seized the opportunity to thank his friends and family
for supporting him during these trying times.
“I wish to convey my gratitude to all the people who have
supported me during this difficult time in my life; my mom, Lynn, and dad, Tony,
Bab’ Moses and Ndabezitha, my brother, Steffan, my family (both Forbes and
Tembe), my heartfelt gratitude to you all.
“To my business associates, political leaders, industry
peers and elders, friends and my neighbours, thank you for rallying around me.
Last but not least, to my incredibly loyal fans, the MEGACY, your collective
love and support have brought me much comfort.”
The rap artiste pleaded with the public to respect his
privacy at this period as he mourns.
“As we undergo this painful journey, I have entrusted my
team to handle all of my affairs in the public domain, including all my social
media platforms. Please respect our privacy as we go through our grieving
process, and please continue to keep our families in your prayers. Love &
Blessings Kiernan Forbes,” he said.
