You’ll Run Away From Ghana If We Show You Your Father – Family To Yvonne Nelson
The ripple effect of Yvonne Nelson’s ‘I and not Yvonne Nelson’ memoir has reportedly culminated in the hospitalisation of the actress’s mother leading to a strong-worded caution from the family to Ms Nelson.
To this end, Mr Amoako, a cousin close to Yvonne Nelson’s mother, Madam Margaret, has disclosed that if Yvonne Nelson finds out who her father really is, she might decide to leave the country for good. Mr Amoako can be heard discussing the strife that Yvonne’s book’s publication has brought about in their family in an audio clip that is making the rounds online.
In the video, Mr Amoako further alleges that he possesses knowledge of Yvonne’s father’s whereabouts. However, if they were to disclose this information and make Yvonne aware of her father’s identity, she may decide to leave the country. “Yvonne needs to exercise patience. In her attempt to disgrace her mother, people on social media are freely making derogatory comments about our family,” he shared.
He also added that Yvonne Nelson risks ostracization from her family due to certain details contained in her book.
“Auntie Maggie, I am very close to her, but for the past few weeks since the release of her book, the family has been disgraced and has triggered several meetings in the family.
“I am very close to Yvonne Nelson’s mother, because of the issues, she has been admitted to hospital for high blood pressure and we fear for what is likely to happen. There are some instances where Yvonne had to be patient,” he lamented.
He added that while the actress “thinks that she would be disgracing her mother, in the long run, it is the family that is affected. People are running down the family on social media. It has gone as far as becoming something of a curse,” he stressed.
I Am Not Yvonne Nelson is an explosive and riveting account of a young woman who sets out to discover herself but finds out that she has been living with a false identity.
The drama and the twists and turns of this moving story have all the markings of a spell-binding movie script, except that the protagonist, who is an actor, is contending with a reality that intermittently soaks her pillow with tears.
Uncharacteristic of an autobiography, the author comes to her audience stark naked. The book opens the door widely into the life of the author and exposes the good, the bad and the ugly sides, not only of her life but also of the make-believe world of celebrities.
