Ghanaian singer Wendy Asiamah Addo, well-known as Wendy Shay, has revealed the real reason behind her decision to stay single, pointing to deep-rooted trust issues shaped by her fast-paced rise to fame.
During an interview on Joy Prime, the ‘Ghana Boys’ singer stated that her experiences in the entertainment industry have made it difficult for her to easily trust people.
“I’m single, well, because I feel like when I came to the industry, things happened so fast that it’s sometimes hard for me to trust. I have trust issues,” she said.
Wendy Shay explained that her journey in music has influenced the way she views love and relationships, shaping her expectations for a future partner.
“I’ve grown to understand that there’s more to life than appearance. I’m really such a soul-fixed person. He has to be involved in my vision, and he needs to understand where I’m going because I need someone to understand the work I’m doing,” she noted.
The singer emphasized that anyone she dates must appreciate her profession and not feel threatened by her stage performances.
“When I go on stage and I’m twerking, he needs to understand that it’s show business. I know men are very jealous, so he has to understand that what I’m doing is part of the work, and I’m just doing what I’m supposed to do. When I come home, I’m your woman,” she said.
Wendy Shay also highlighted the importance of spiritual connection in any relationship she considers meaningful.
“I also need someone who will be there for me spiritually. Be my head, cover me with prayers. I’m not really so fixed on money because I believe in building something together,” she disclosed.
