Ghanaian actress and movie producer, Yvonne Nelson, has disclosed in her newly published book ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’ that she got impregnated by a rapper based in Tema in 2010.
She added that the man refused to accept responsibilities because he was not ready for a child.
The versatile actress captured in chapter 8 during the launch on Sunday, June 18, 2023, that she, out of shame decided to abort the child by taking concoctions from a friend but to her surprise, the substance could not work as second test showed she was still pregnant.
Obviously, the actress succeeded in aborting the baby later as she has no child of thirteen years.
“one of the most regrettable mistakes in my life. If the clock of life could be rewound to my younger self, I would keep it”, she said in her book.
ABOUT THE BOOK
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.
The launch night saw many industry stalwarts, media personalities, businessmen and politicians including, Kobby Kyei, John Dumelo, Adjetey Anang, Mustapha Abdul-Hamid and Becca.
