oscar winning actor Lupita Nyong’o shared that she decided to publicly announce her separation from her boyfriend, Selema Masekela, to avoid telling people about the breakup “one at a time.”
The couple, who had been together since 2022, announced their breakup on Instagram 10 months into their relationship.
Speaking about why she decided to take to social media to share the news in October, Nyong’o said in a magazine interview: “Honestly, the thought of having to update people one at a time was going to be heartbreaking. I had made the decision to share the relationship with the world and I wanted to make the decision to share the end of it with the world. She knew that announcing it or sharing it with the world would mean there would be a reverberation and she would have to deal with that. There is a time to be open and there is a time to not be open, and I chose that time to be open,” she said.
The actress stated that she intends to be much more secretive about her private life in the future. Nyong’o added: “I’m happy with what I did and I don’t want to do it again. “I don’t want to share that part of me anymore.”
