## Thando Reflects on Marriage to Siyacela
Thando candidly shared the reasons behind her decision to part ways with Siyacela, admitting that her youth and naivety played a significant role in their union. She explained that marrying young had left her ill-prepared for the challenges of marriage.
“Initially, he was good; he’d bring me lunch at school,” Thando said in her statement. “But he’s always been controlling. He isolated me from my friends, and I wasn’t allowed to talk to boys at school. Eventually, I wasn’t allowed to go to school and didn’t finish matric. I was young and naïve, deeply in love, and knew nothing about marriage. My mother was against this marriage, but I forced my way out. I just didn’t know any better.”
