Society has pushed many into early and quick marriages, for fear that their time for marriage is ripe and if it’s not ‘now’, then it’s ‘never!’<\/p>\n

This is a stereotype that has forced majority of youths to start their own families at a tender age, which they eventually regret; either because they were never prepared for it or that they later discover love never existed.<\/p>\n

Kenyan renowned music producer and businessman, Tedd Josiah confessed to have been pushed into the same school of thought, by society, which saw him bear two children with a woman he later abandoned.<\/p>\n

The confession<\/h2>\n

Up and close on Grace Msalame’s NTV show, Unscripted with Grace,\u00a0<\/em>the widow revealed he once settled in marriage only to later discover that this was not the woman he loved.<\/p>\n

I was in a space where I wasn’t ready to be a family man. I was breaking people more than I was building them and everything that I had built was false. You know how you grow up and you are told you are supposed to get married and live in a certain way. I was just ticking boxes and then I realized I don’t even love this person.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Unfortunately, even though there was never love, the relationship bore them two kids – unknown to many – who are now all grown-up and teenagers and who we might never get the privilege of ever meeting.<\/p>\n

During the 2007\/2008 political clashes in Kenya, the music producer sought refuge in the UK, leaving behind his baby mama and their two children.<\/p>\n

This kept haunting him every time and he promised to come back and clean his mess, which saw him fall in love with his late wife, Regina Katar.<\/p>\n

Second marriage<\/h2>\n

Tedd and Regina got blessed with a dear baby Jay Jay who has been under the care of her dad-mom and who I must admit, is a true replica of her mom.<\/p>\n

I realized I wanted a second chance, I really wanted it. Now we have a bond with my kids, all three of them. I love them to bits. They spend a lot of time with me at home but because they are in their teens, I isolate them from social media because it can get a bit rough.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
