Media personality Toke Makinwa has spoken about being single and childless at age 40.
The former On-Air personality, who turned 40 late last year, in a recent episode of her podcast admitted that if she had gotten married for a second time, she might have gotten a divorce.
Revealing why, Toke Makinwa said she has come to realize that life’s lessons never end.
The media personality stated that despite being single and childless at 40, she doesn’t allow herself to wallow in pity. Rather, she chooses to focus on her accomplishments and the love she is surrounded with.

Toke expressed how grateful she is for her journey and her current position, listing her numerous accomplishments. In her words:
“I am 40, I am single, and I am childless. I said it, and I didn’t die, and that always made me tear up. I used to feel like, how am I 40 and I don’t have a child? How am I 40 and I single? How am I 40, and I am alone? Listen, if I am completely honest with you guys, if I had gotten married again, I would have been divorced. Because the lessons never stop.
I am grateful for the journey, I am grateful for where I am at, and I am grateful that I am 40. I look at my life like I am 40 and a boss, have built an empire, am one of the most resounding voices in Africa, have a love of family, and am in great health. I love what I do, and I am not waking up miserable, thinking that I am still here.
You need to sit with your truth, and when you do so, you can’t shame the shameless”.
Toke Makinwa was once married to fitness expert, Maje Ayinde but the marriage crashed in 2016, after two years on the grounds of adultery.
She once opened up on her failed marriage, lamenting how she was blamed for her marriage failure even though her ex-husband fathered a child with another woman. She said people had different versions of what they thought her marriage was, which left her traumatized as she was the victim.
