To move forward, he made the painful decision to let go of his ex-wife, recognising that she was using their children as pawns.
Despite missing his kids, he has been unable to reconnect with them and has chosen not to talk to them.
Determined to rebuild his life, he initiated plans to relocate to a new country, beginning the process in July and securing a visa by September.
Now settled in this new land, the man is starting afresh and finding happiness in his new chapter. He has decided to get married again and looks forward to expanding his family with more children.
In his words:
“I share custody of two kids with my ex-wife. Unfortunately, she set me up during a visit to see the kids (confirmed by a judge at the magistrate court), leading to unnecessary restrictions.
"The situation escalated, involving the police, and I was remanded, later attending court on bail. After 8 months of navigating criminal allegations while the divorce was ongoing at the high court, I was finally vindicated, gaining my freedom.
"To move forward, I decided to let go of my ex-wife, who was using the kids as pawns. It was a painful decision, but I believed it was best for the children. Three months after the case, I initiated my plans to japa.
"The process started in July, and by September, I had secured a visa. Now in the new land, I am starting afresh. Do I miss my kids? Yes. Do I talk with them? No. Have I tried to reconnect? Yes. What now? Life is beautiful, and I'm happy to begin anew. I am getting married again & looking forward to having more kids.
"Despite the challenges, I remain hopeful that someday, I will reconnect with my children and provide them with the best as their father. There are some things of life one just doesn't need to bother themselves about, particularly those things that may sap your energy and yank your freedom off you. Life is not as difficult as it may seem.”

Couple reunites 23 years after divorce
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Grace Migliaccio and John Hironhavr who broke up with each other after a short romantic affair had an amazing unexpected reunion 23 years later. They had earlier met in the United States during a party in 1984 but were forced to divorce each other after John’s visa expired in the US.
When both couples met again in 2007, they learnt about their divorces in their respective marriages, so they started another relationship, eventually leading to their reunion. Grace said after their first break up, they never forgot each other. Even after losing contact with each other, John had once gone as far as to track Grace down by calling an international directory in the U.S.
Both Grace and John said that love is worth taking a chance on, especially for those who had earlier experienced a loss in love; they said it is normal to come back to see if they feel the same way for each other again. “Know that it's never too late to find where you're supposed to be and who you're supposed to be there with”
