Reality TV star and entrepreneur, Ka3na Jones, has shared a deeply emotional post about the realities of raising her child alone following the death of her husband, Mr. Jones.
Taking to her official Instagram, the former Big Brother Naija housemate bared her heart, admitting that she has never been able to get used to being a single parent. She wrote:
“I don’t believe I can ever get used to being a single parent. This sh!t is hard. They say it gets easier with time… LIEEEES! The anxiety, the grief, the responsibility, the sacrifices… they only grow.”
In a raw and unfiltered reflection, Ka3na expressed how no one could have prepared her for losing her husband so soon after marriage. She continued:
“Nobody ever tells you, ‘Hey Katie, this amazing man you’re about to marry only has five more years to live, make every second count.’ Or, ‘Don’t rush into having kids… he’s going to die and leave you a widow and a single mother in your prime.’”
Despite the pain, the reality star said she wouldn’t change anything about her journey because she can’t imagine her life without her daughter. Ka3na further revealed:
“Would I have done anything differently if I knew? Honestly, no. Because I can’t imagine my world right now without my baby girl. I Miss Mr. Jones every passing day.”
However, she admitted to sometimes feeling angry, exhausted, and overwhelmed. She confessed:
“But am I angry sometimes? Tired? Worn out? Yes.
“Do I wish someone would just look at me and say, ‘Katie, take a break… I got this’? Absolutely!!! I. Am. Tired.”
Ka3na, who lost her British husband, Mr Jones in May 2023, has been candid about her grief journey on social media, often sharing how much she misses him while navigating the challenges of solo parenting.
