It’s easy to blame everything and everyone except ourselves for wounds inflicted on us as we journey through relationships. The healing we earnestly yearn for only begins when we end the conflict within ourselves and it seems Konshens finally understood that.

On Wednesday 4th of December, the Jamaican dancehall artist penned an emotional piece on his Instagram detailing events that led to the separation between him and his wife Latoya Wright. This is the second time this year that Konshens and his wife have parted ways. The emotional piece touched his fans and Kenyans were among the first people to empathize with him as he embarks on the journey of becoming the best version of himself.

Their first split earlier this year, was dubbed as a publicity stunt by his critics to promote his new album. A few weeks later the two rekindled their romance until now.

His post…

You will wake up and grow up when she is already gone. All she ever did was - Bring me the greatest happiness only rivaled by the birth of my kids. She stuck by me no matter what and who going against me. Stopped me from committing suicide countless times after I got broke and was financially unstable. Counselling me when the world unleashed its wrath upon me. She put up countless messed up situations that she shouldn’t have to endure to begin with but she did with such class, protecting my image publicly and still maintained respect for me. She loves my daughter like her own and taught her how to be a lady. She transformed my mindset financially showing me the way I was handling money all those years was totally wrong. My perfect match spiritually and physically. She partnered with me in business and LIFE. Yet I still found so many ways to burn it all to ashes. This is what happens when little Jack gets a QUEEN.

This is a message to all men, get out of your own way and look at your life, look at what is really important and don’t make God take back His blessing. I am not seeking sympathy and yes I had to post this because I wanted to vent. I have extremely few friends but none of them had the audacity to tell me that these girls I have been chasing out here are only out to sabotage my relationship, my family, my life.  Just like how we don’t talk about feelings, we never talked about the time I got broke. All we do is lie to each other how we are young, rich and excellent womanizers. We hide our true feelings and pretend we don’t need anyone else other than ourselves. All we ever truly do is think of self! We try to act like we are great in other areas while all we are doing is losing and worst of all losing the people who matter the most.
Thank you very much @latts for giving me the best years of my life. Sorry I damaged what we had. I will mend my ways and become a better person and no matter where you go in life, I will always be a call away, watching and hoping you find real happiness with someone deserving but I will be ready and waiting if you ever call.
To all ladies I am NOT available and I don’t want anybody. I am not trying to depress anyone on my timeline, I just had to say this publicly so that everybody can know what kind of a clown I was and for men who are still ‘entertaining’ other shenanigans  to wake up and smell the coffee before they cause irreparable hurt in  their  relationship. I will focus on my music , my career , releasing new songs soon ,work extra hard , focus on my kids , my mental health and grow as a man leaving this boy life alone.


Konshens and Latoya celebrated their second wedding anniversary recently. They got married at a private beach ceremony in Miami, Florida in November 2017. The couple, who have a son Liam, had been dating for six years. This time, it doesn’t seem like a stunt, the dancehall star promised to work on his mental health and become a better human being. It is tough staying married when you’re a public figure. Never say never, anything can happen, they might work things out in the end.
