Reggie Zippy, the popular UK-based Ghanaian musician, recently took to social media to express his frustration over what he describes as ongoing “torture” from his ex-wife, Edith Ward.
In an emotional Facebook post, the musician lamented the difficulties he continues to face after their divorce—particularly regarding his children and his efforts to mend their strained relationship.
“Maybe when I speak Twi or any other Ghanaian language, her amazing mother, step-sister, and aunties will have the courage to tell her to stop turning my children against me—despite every effort I’ve made to make things right after our divorce,” Reggie Zippy wrote, hinting at the deep challenges he has faced in trying to restore a peaceful and respectful co-parenting environment.
The musician expressed that despite his attempts to reconcile and be a positive influence in his children’s lives, he has encountered ongoing resistance, particularly in terms of the relationship he shares with his kids.
This emotional turmoil, he said, has been compounded by what he believes to be “parental alienation” and “character assassination.”
“Feel free to mock and vilify me. At least I spoke the truth of my reality before my last breath. It gets to a point where a man has no other choice but to speak his truth before dying in silence due to parental alienation and character assassination,” he shared, suggesting that the pressure of being silenced for so long had finally pushed him to speak out publicly.
Despite these personal struggles, Reggie Zippy emphasized that he remains at peace with his own life. However, the continued attempts to sabotage his relationship with his children have left him feeling helpless.
“I am alright with my own life, but the continual sabotage of my children’s love for me—despite all efforts to salvage and protect the peace and calm—seems to always blow up in my face,” he confessed.
The musician also reflected on the impact of these ongoing issues on his legacy, expressing concern that false narratives would be spread about him after his passing.
“The lies and fabrications that would be spewed against me when I am gone make me want to tell my own story and history before it’s too late—because I don’t have anyone to publicly defend my name apart from Sally Mann and some of my immediate relatives,” he stated.
