Popular Kumawood actress and screen siren, Portia Asare, has shared a deeply personal and emotional story about the hardships she faced during the early stages of motherhood.
In a touching video shared on her Instagram on November 30, 2025, the actress disclosed that she was left without a home shortly after childbirth.
Holding back tears, Portia Asare recounted the intense challenges she navigated as a new mother.
She boldly revealed that after being discharged from the hospital, she had no roof over her head and was forced to sleep in hotels with her newborn child for an extended period.
“There were times I had to sleep with my children in hotels, and I didn’t want anybody to know. I had to hide myself in places where nobody would notice,” she emotionally stated.
The actress explained the immense difficulty of having to move from one hotel room to another for three months, carrying all the necessary postnatal items she needed to heal quickly, along with her newborn’s basic necessities, all while breastfeeding.
“Imagine giving birth to a baby who is breastfeeding, and I had to sleep in hotels for three months. During this period, I was moving from one hotel room to another.”
Portia Asare noted that she never imagined she would share this difficult chapter of her life.
She was motivated by a desire to encourage her fans, particularly women, who may be facing similar silent battles.
The style influencer urged her followers to have faith in God and believe that their challenges are temporary and that there is “light at the end of the tunnel.”
“I never imagined that a time would come when I would share this to encourage people that whatever they are going through, they are not the only ones facing such challenges, as others are also experiencing similar difficulties. …There will be a day and a time when you will smile at the storm and say that this far we have come by grace,” she concluded.
