So quick! Bala Ranks divorces toubab wife after three weeks of marriage

Just three weeks after they tied the knot, Bala Ranks has divorced his second wife, Yasmin.

The couple met online in August 2014 and quickly started dating before they got married on the 14th December at the Sanchaba Mosque.

Yasmin, who lives in Bristol, England, told What’s On-Gambia that they were planning to register their marriage both in The Gambia and UK until when she received a ‘divorce text message’ from the famous singer.

She said: “I travelled back to England on Christmas Eve and started to plan for our second wedding, everything was okay and we were talking about the arrangements over the phone. I even bought a dress and ordered our wedding rings. On Monday, 5th January, he started complaining that I never ask about his family, a very small misunderstanding occurred and he wouldn’t answer my calls.”

The English girl continued: “He became very nasty and this went all week. He sent me a text to say Yasmin I divorce you and he is telling everyone that he is scared of me.”

Yasmin started visiting The Gambia in 2002 as a tourist. She was a huge fan of Bala Ranks and they started chatting after she liked his Facebook page.

When asked if she was aware that the singer is married with children, she responded: “I knew he has another wife. I was okay with that at the time. I met the wife. I had no problem with it.”

According to Yasmin, she is returning to the country in March 2015, but said she has no plans of reconciling with Bala Ranks.

“It is difficult now to give the marriage a second chance. I feel like a fool. What are people going to think of me?” she said, adding “Everyone I know in The Gambia, and I know a lot of people, cannot believe the way I have been treated.”

The couple’s short-lived marriage was kept under firm wraps by Bala Ranks. According to Yasmin, the Baadinya hit maker told her never to share any of their photos on social media.

What’s On-Gambiawas unable to reach Bala Ranks for his response.
