Toke Makinwa Reveals In Upcoming Auto-Biography That She Used To Bleach Because Her Ex-Husband Likes Fair Skinned Girls

Toke Makinwa is getting ready to launch her tell-all autobiography, ‘On Becoming’.
In it, the controversy plagued celebrity, who separated from ex-husband Maje Ayida after he impregnated his ex during their marriage, reveals some of the harrowing, emotionally draining experiences she went through in her marriage.
In an excerpt, she admits that she used to bleach her skin to please her husband. Maje dated fair skinned Anita before her and she could realise that he preferred her colour to his.
“Anita had been the standard I had to live up to. I had lightened my skin at some point – Anita was half Lebanese and half Ibibio, and Maje made me feel like he preferred her lighter skin.” she wrote.
Toke dated Maje for eight years before the couple got married at a private ceremony in 2014, but then broke up in sensational fashion a year later, when it emerged Maje had impregnated Anita.

Another excerpt from the book, which would be released on Sunday, tackles that moment when she discovered her husband had impregnated his ex.

“I got on my knees in front of him, my voice calm as I can make it. “Maje, you can’t keep lying. What is going on?”
He walks away, leaving me there with my heart in my hands. I see him pacing, like he is having a private conversation. Then all of a sudden, he walks back to the living room, looks straight into my eyes and says, ‘She’s pregnant’.
I fall to the ground. My head….
‘What’s she having?’
‘A boy,’ he says.
‘How long have you known?’
‘I’ve always known…. It was what I thought I wanted,’ he says.
