Award-winning singer Akothee has stated that she intends to get artificial insemination in France. The mother of five expressed her desire to conceive one more child before going through menopause in a social media post.
“I have something for kids. I miss something and I don’t want to get pregnant at 45. I will be going for artificial insemination here in France,” she said.
Following recent breakup with her boyfriend Nelly Oaks, Akothee announced that she would undergo artificial insemination because “it looks like a partner won’t be possible soon.”
She added that she wanted a drama-free baby with her sixth child. “When you see me pregnant, don’t be shocked or ask me who the father is. Do what you want to do in this life, it’ s your life,” The 39-year-old mother of three daughters and two sons stated.
She gave birth to her two sons, Oyoo and Ojwang, from two distinct relationships in addition to her three daughters, Vesha Shalian Okello, Celine Dion Okello, and Prudence Apundo, during her first marriage.
Akothee has previously recalled how she first met the man who is the father of the older of her two boys back when she was a Mombasa cab driver. Later, while they were living overseas, her Swiss soul mate left her, forcing her to return to her native country. She claimed that the man made her an offer of Sh1 million for child support.
Additionally, Akothee dated a Frenchman, with whom she had her fifth child.
