Singer Irene Ntale’s sister and manager Sandra Ntale Byenkya Akiiki might not celebrate her second wedding at her home in Muyenga Bukasa this month after allegedly estranging from her lover Shem Byenkya last week.
Snoops intimate that the once loved-up couple is on the verge of breaking up. Sources say that the bitter split emerged after Shem converted to Islam a few months ago. Since then the two lovers have been bickering at their home in Muyenga-Bukasa.
Last week, Sandra involved her family members to sort the matter so that they can salvage their relationship.
An insider revealed that in-laws of Shem have supported his wife’s departure after he converted to Islam.
The family members revealed that they are Anglican and as such would not accept Shem’s new faith.
Shem’s decision to convert to Islam sent shock waves through Sandra’s family and she is said to have packed all her belongings to live with her singing sister Irene Ntale’s who resides at Kisugu.
Sandra and Shem wed in church in 2016 whereby his new Islamic faith has left the marriage null and void.
Meanwhile, we have learnt that the couple used to feud over Sandra’s dedications to managing Irene’s music career and neglected her marriage.
It is said that Sandra would spend most of her time moving with Irene Ntale to different music events leaving Shem to brave cold nights. However, we have not yet gathered how Shem’s family is handling his new-found faith of Islam.
Shem is a son to Former Hoima woman Member of Parliament, Beatrice Byenkya Nyakaisiki.
