During an appearance on Mac G’s Podcast and Chill, Gugulethu Khumalo, better known as Berita, discussed her former husband, Nota Baloyi.
The singer explained why she quit the marriage, which began in 2020 during Lockdown:
“I left because my ex-husband was showing a certain level of rage and anger that I’ve never experienced before. The last incident of rage that happened was when I called the therapist, and the therapist was like, this is dangerous, someone is going to die in this house.”
“At some point, I took a break from working to see what is happening in my household.”
Berita further revealed what inspired her latest single, Peace of Mind.
“Peace of Mind is really about me getting to a point of getting my peace back, and hoping that my ex-husband also finds peace. I don’t think he is at peace; when I left he wasn’t at peace. I desire peace for him,” she said.
“I got to realize that I don’t think he was the right person for me, and I don’t think I was the right person for him as well…”
