'Kaka never betrayed me,' she said. 'He treated me well, he gave me a wonderful family, but I was not happy, something was missing.
'The problem was, he was too perfect for me.'

He said:
'I stayed single for a year, trying to assimilate the situation and dealing with it as a Christian, talking to the pastors, because the Bible tells you not to get divorced and I was there, getting divorced.'
