The decision to take a break from my marriage was not one made easy and not one I anticipated making but I have been so unhappy. I realise that I need to go on a journey of self discovery before I make any type of commitment to a man even if it is the one that I married.

I finally agreed to sit down with Adrienne to talk about everything that has transpired over the past couple of months. Appearing on a talk show to discuss the break down of my marriage is not one that I wanted to do but I trust that my sister will make me feel comfortable enough to share my experience.

I'm not the only woman in the world to go through it so maybe I can shed some light on how to get through it.

"This interview is going to be a special one as it features one of the women that I admire most in this world." I smile at Adrienne's kind words. "She is a model, an entrepreneur, a sports personality and a mother... she is Jasmine Hunter."

Adrienne starts clapping as the camera pans to me and I smile softly while fighting back tears because it's been a long while since someone complimented me like that. These days I am always been insulted by the public but my sisters have stood by my side no matter what which is why I am so grateful for them.

"Thank you for that kind introduction."

Adrienne nods her head, "How are you?"

"How am I?" I let out a small laugh as I try so desperately to stop my tears. "I'm surviving."

"Mmm..."

"I am trying to figure out my next steps without going out of my mind because the reality is that life goes on despite all the crazy shit that we go through." I bite down on my bottom lip. "I still have a daughter to care for, a house to tend to, a career that I am reviving and all that while I am pregnant."

My sister sighs deeply as she prepares to ask me the dreaded question and I give her a nod letting her know that it's ok to ask me all the questions.

"It was revealed that your husband, Darius Hunter had been cheating on you for a number of years and had been engaged in a pretty long affair." Adrienne pauses for a moment as we soak in those heartbreaking words. "How did that make you feel when it was first brought to your attention and how has it changed your marriage?"

"Loyalty was never something that I feared despite infidelity being a big thing with these basketballers. I had seen it happen to some of my friends who were and are still married to their husbands but it never crossed my mind that my Darius would do that because we had such a good relationship." I bite down on my bottom lip. "We were not the boring couple or the couple that never spent time together. I was always following him around the country with our daughter but still making sure that we had our solo time together so that news devastated me."
