Yvonne Nelson's memoir sparks controversy: everything she said

Sat, 24 Jun 2023 Source: Island Reporters

In her new memoir, Yvonne Nelson discusses her Pregnancy, Abortion, Iyanya, and Tonto Dikeh.

Yvonne Nelson, a prominent Ghanaian actress, is at the center of a heated debate following the publication of her revealing memoir "I Am Not Yvonne Nelson" in Ghana on Sunday.

The incendiary memoir has sparked controversy on social media, with differing opinions. Others censure the actress for portraying herself as a saint while disclosing intimate details.

In her autobiography, Yvonne Nelson discusses a variety of captivating and occasionally bitter experiences from her life. She makes shocking revelations, including the fact that her alleged father, Mr. Oko Nelson, is not her biological father, thus she bears the incorrect surname.

Additionally, the 37-year-old actress reveals her purported pregnancy by Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie and subsequent abortion. In addition, she discusses her ex-lover Iyanya's rumored relationship with actress Tonto Dikeh.

The internet has been abuzz with conversations about Yvonne's revelations, resulting in the book selling out rapidly.

Iyanya responded to Yvonne's allegations by posting a cryptic message on Instagram: "Wow, Na Love I Love, Na trust I trust. So Breakfast did belle full me."

Using lyrics from Jay Cole's 2014 hit song "No Role Modelz," Ghanaian rapper Sarkodie also weighed in, presumably sending subliminal messages that Yvonne is shallow and undeserving of redemption.

Victoria Lebene, a Ghanaian actress-turned-businesswoman, has accused Yvonne of portraying herself as a saint by revealing personal secrets in public while the controversy continues to escalate.

Lebene emphasized that everyone has their own stories and experiences with other people, but not every detail should be made public.

Christabel Orji, one of Yvonne's supporters, criticized the critics for their duplicity and suggested that if they wrote their own memoirs, they would not receive the same level of attention, fanfare, and book sales.

Another social media user acknowledged the significance of mental health and commended Yvonne for her fortitude in sharing her story, expressing hope that it would inspire and mend the hearts of many.

Yvonne's autobiography, "I Am Not Yvonne Nelson," provides a view into her intriguing life story, showcasing the actress' unapologetic candor and willingness to share the truth.

The book provides readers with an intimate look at her encounters with notable celebrities, leaving them eagerly anticipating the complete account of her experiences.
