Ghanaian media personality, Afua Asantewaa, has retracted her previous statements supporting long-distance relationships.
In a video shared on Instagram on June 10, 2025, Afua Asantewaa, who is currently based in the United States, admitted that she once believed long-distance relationships were easy but not anymore.
After spending time in the U.S., Afua Asantewaa said she has realised the challenges such relationships present and no longer recommends them.
“I used to think long-distance relationships are very easy. Those were the exact words I used to say some time back. I thought it wasn’t a big deal. You could be talking with your partner until I experienced it.
“Let me ask: is it some sort of measure you guys follow or is it some divine strength that you guys have that enables you to stay apart for a long time? It is difficult,” she said.
The sing-a-thon contender’s post has since sparked numerous reactions online.
While some netizens support her stance, others argue that long-distance relationships can work if both partners remain committed and faithful.
