Taking the microphone with visible emotion, Kanyari stunned mourners by issuing a full, unreserved apology to his late ex-wife — right at her graveside.
He admitted that his scandals, fame and very public dramas dragged Betty into storms she never deserved.
“I’m truly sorry that my brand, my name, and my drama put you through difficult moments,”
— Prophet Kanyari, during his tribute.
The crowd fell silent as the prophet openly acknowledged the damage caused during their tumultuous years in the spotlight.
