Bona Mugabe Is Divorcing Her Husband

Robert Mugabe’s daughter Bona Mugabe has filed for divorce from her husband, Simba Chikore.

According to reports, the marriage of Bona Mugabe and husband, Simba Chikore, is ending. The Herald reports that Bona filed for divorce, citing a total breakdown with no prospects of restoring their union. The papers were filed on March 7.

In 2014, Bona and Simba tied the knot at her father’s home in Borrowdale, Harare. The wedding was the talk of the country and social media and was attended by thousands. There were also African heads of state, government officials, and high-level dignitaries in attendance.

In the filed papers, Bona stated that they had lost all love and affection for each other and had been living apart for nine months. She also cited Simba’s activities outside their marriage as a reason for the divorce. She also sought custody of their three children, aged seven, five, and two. And US$2 700 monthly maintenance per child until they “attain their majority or become self-sustaining, whichever occurs first.”
