Sanna Marin |
Sanna Marin, the Prime Minister of Finland, has announced her divorce from husband Markus Raikkonen after 19 years of marriage. The couple, who are both 37, share a five-year-old daughter, Emma Amalia Marin. They got married three years ago in a private ceremony. Marin took to Instagram to announce their separation, stating that they are "still best friends, close to each other and loving parents." She further mentioned that the family would continue to spend time together, requesting privacy and no further comments on the matter.
Marin recently faced backlash over allegations of partying during her tenure as the Prime Minister. She was caught in a scandal where she was filmed dancing intimately with Finnish singer Olavi Uusivirta in August 2020, but he denied having an affair with her. Last month, Marin faced an election defeat, leading her to step down from her position.
The announcement of Marin's divorce has garnered widespread attention, with many expressing their support and respect for the couple's privacy. The news has also sparked discussions about the challenges of balancing a political career with personal life. Nonetheless, Marin's decision to prioritize her family and personal life demonstrates that politicians, like any other individuals, have personal lives and responsibilities that they must attend to.
Divorce is now a normal thing. Even me that I'm not married yet can never think of marrying an oyinbo o.
