Despite carrying the financial burden, she said his employment status never changed how she viewed him as her husband.

According to her, the way he conducted himself at home made his position clear.

“The first few years, I was doing everything. But you would never know. Not because of what I did, but because of how he carried himself,” she said.

For the TV host, being unemployed did not automatically make her husband less of a man.

She explained that he remained involved in the home, took decisions with her, showed interest in her work and maintained his responsibilities.

“Money is important, but that’s not what makes your husband a husband. It’s the ability to lead,” she said.

She added that her husband prayed for her before she left home and consistently demonstrated qualities that gave her confidence in him.

“When it comes to the house, he takes decisions, we discuss,” she added.

@SOFTLIFETOBY stated:

"One thing I learnt in my younger days is that you will instantly become less attractive to your woman once she discovers she can’t trust you to lead the relationship or when she realizes you don’t have your shii together and it doesn’t have to be financially"

@ashman_babane reacted:

"The respect you give him is what's keeping the balance, if you've ridiculed him, call him liability, remind him how he's useless and less of a man. I bet you won't see the best side of him. The only thing he'll be thinking is how to snap out of such bondage. Respect your man & see Wonder's"
