Yvonne in her memoir, ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’ which was launched on June 18, 2023, narrated how she found out her ex-boyfriend, Iyanya, was cheating on her with Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh.
Recall that in June, the famous Ghanaian actress made the headlines, following the launch of her book, ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’ where she made quite a number of bizarre claims.
She disclosed her affair with Sarkodie and her relationship with Iyanya in Chapter 10 of the memoir, accusing him of cheating on her with former colleague, Tonto Dikeh and other ladies.
Iyanya had promised to share his side of the story after the allegation levelled against him but he decided to stop days later.
He said at the time that while many may desire a fitting response from him, he would also be criticised for slut-shaming if he made a statement.
A few months later, Iyanya claimed that after the book was released, his love interest (at that time) became skeptical about dating him.
