Womanizing didn’t help me – Asamoah Gyan reveals biggest regret in life

Ghana’s all-time top scorer, Asamoah Gyan, has revealed that he was a womanizer during his heydays, admitting that the act did not positively impact his life.

While speaking about his life lessons and regrets on Onua TV, the former Black Stars skipper advised the youth against womanizing, using himself as an example.

“Everybody is a womanizer, but womanizing did not help me. I will advise partners to keep their issues between themselves,” he said.

Asamoah Gyan, who had been married since 2013, officially divorced his wife in 2023 after the court annulled the union on October 31, 2023.

He has three kids with his ex-wife, Gifty, who claimed custody of the children, while Asamoah Gyan is obligated to pay child support.

Asamoah Gyan’s divorce case

Edwin Kusi Appiah, the counsel for legendary Ghanaian footballer, Asamoah Gyan, has revealed the main reason why the player filed for a divorce.

Speaking to Kofi TV, Kusi Appiah disclosed that Gyan had been receiving threats from the husband of his now ex-wife that his three children were not his.

The one accusation that broke the camel’s back and set Gyan and his wife on the path of divorce was that the player’s firstborn was not his.

According to him, Asamoah Gyan, upon hearing this statement, gathered evidence and initiated proceedings to have their marriage annulled.

“Asamoah Gyan married his wife in 2013 but had been with her since 2003. He got information that prior to marrying her, the lady had married another man. Their marriage had three kids with the firstborn coming in 2005. Asamoah Gyan told me he was threatened by someone that the children, particularly the firstborn were not his and that they belonged to him (the person issuing the threat).

“That is what forced us to go to court and seek permission to conduct DNA on the kids. Thankfully, the DNA test proved that Gyan was the father of the children and he was really happy with it. Gyan was happy because he loved the children. That is the main reason Asamoah Gyan went to court,” he said.
