A man, named Hassan Mamba Lemmy has recently narrated his peculiar relationship with his wife, Maombi Jeannette, who was his high school teacher leaving netizens conflicted.
Lemmy disclosed his relationship with Maombi his wife in an interview with Afrimax English detailing that their relationship was not ordinary as his wife had taught him in high school.
Lemmy noted he was 12 years younger than his former teacher, making it even harder for him to approach her adding he was taken by her whilst in school.
"I kept wondering if she and I could be together. I knew I would face much competition," Lemmy revealed.
When he finished school, he made his vision clear to Maombi and was excited after his proposal was accepted.
"I was surprised. Of course, at first, I did not believe him, but I could not hold back when I saw how serious he was. His genuine care and affection broke through my defenses like magic, and I wanted to be with and love him," Maombi said.
Despite backlash from the people, the couple held on to their love. Five years later, they are still together and even have had children together silencing and shaming their critics.
"His love is different. He gives me freedom and loves me unconditionally. I have been in other relationships with older men who wanted to take advantage of me until I met Lemmy," Maombi said.
Netizens have since given their conflicting opinions regarding Lemmy marrying his high school teacher. Some of the comments are below:
@bokaletlotlo8220: She is not as old as his mom unless his mom had him at 12, loves knows no age
@bensonastrasser-williams7028: Beautiful, age is just a number. God bless your union
@julietadams3821: As a Retired Teacher, I would have never thought of doing such a thing! I would never have invited a student to come to my home to be tutored...
