Eric Omondi spoke out about his relationship with Chantal Grazioli saying that she is one of the people who understood and loved him for who he was.

However, they broke up because Chantal got a job as a flight attendant and he could not hold her back.

Chantal got the job after Eric had discouraged her from taking a job at the popular fast food restaurant, KFC, and later she was not successful in finding another job in Kenya.

Speaking to Massawe Japanni, Eric said,

"She understood me very well."

Their breakup was very civil. They each put out a statement on social media.  Eric wrote,

"AS YOU MOVE INTO YOUR NEW PHASE IN LIFE WITH OR WITHOUT ME I WANT TO WISH YOU ALL THE BEST MY LOVE❤️...THE PATHS THAT BROUGHT US TOGETHER ARE NOW FACING DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS AND AS YOU MOVE ON IN YOUR PATH I WISH YOU THE BEST LIFE HAS TO OFFER.

The farewell love note by Eric went on to show that they have parted on good terms.

AS YOU FLY AWAY MY LOVE❤️ MAY YOU GLOW, SHINE LIKE THE ANGEL THAT YOU ARE. I WILL MISS YOU😰 EVERY MOMENT...EVERY SINGLE MOMENT. YOU ARE THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME!!! 

After the post went up Chantal also clarifed that the parting is mutual.

I LOVE ERIC AND I WILL ALWAYS LOVE HIM AND WE ARE OKAY; WE CREATED THE BEST OF MOMENTS TOGETHER, WE SHARED OUR DREAMS AND VISIONS BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY WE SHARED OUR LIVES. AND I WILL ALWAYS CHERISH EVERY SINGLE MOMENT...

I HATE GOODBYES SO IT'S NOT A GOODBYE ITS MORE LIKE A SEE YOU LATER.

I WILL ALWAYS BE HERE FOR YOU ANYTIME, ANYDAY @ERICOMONDI 💞

Eric explained why the breakup happened,

"I was with her for four and a half years, she was looking for something to do. She got a job at KFC and we were like how will it look like?"

Adding,

"Later, She got a job in one of the airlines she was to go for 11 months with no leave, at the time we were very serious. When she called me and said she has gotten the job, I had a moment, I told her don't let go of the job, don't let us run your life, I'm living my life doing comedy and loving it and that is something you want to do. I told her, you go do it and anytime she needs me, I'm here."
