Zwai Bala’s Wife Mel Reveals Reasons That Led To Their Divorce
Mel Bala says she was tired of fighting
It has been over 5 months since Musician Zwai Bala and his wife Mel announced that they will be divorcing after a 17 year relationship. They confirmed the separation last year in a statement that detailed the course.
Speaking to Gareth Cliff on CliffCentral recently, Melanie spoke openly about the split.
“We were together for 17 years and who you are when you meet at 20-something is a lot different to who you are when you are 40-something. You grow. You change. You evolve.”
She said after the relationship became strained, she knew that they had to be mature about it and not stay when they were unhappy.
“It is about saying are you able to bring the best out of a person and when you are no longer able to do that, you should be mature enough to say: ‘You know what? Neither of us wants to be unhappy. I don’t want you to be unhappy.'”
She said that the two will still cross paths for many years as their children grow up and she didn’t want to “spend a lifetime fighting”.
In a statement at the time, the couple said the decision to split was “mutual” and it was the only comment they would give on the matter.
