Accepting the Ugly Truth

One of the saddest days in marriage would be the day that husband and wife realize that they are not attuned to each other, and what was supposed to be a match made in heaven was turning into a living hell. A high profile relationship and the ideal family image do not guarantee that all is well between the man and woman.

After several years into their marriage, Talented Actress (TA) discovered that Her Husband (HH) has been keeping a secret from her. TA discovered that HH has an alleged mistress (AM) whom he has set–up in a flat. AM and HH share the same school and chances are both had been classmates. Thus, HH had met AM long before he met TA. Belonging to the few celebrities who can wave a diploma from a university, HH projects an image of someone responsible.

The marital problem reached a point that TA and HH already consulted a lawyer. However, their family image is very strong and breaking apart their family will have more consequences than a ruined reputation. They have many endorsements that could be affected if they separate. Consumer products are keen on utilizing celebrities that project the ideal as their brand image. Hence, a tumultuous relationship can affect the brand they are endorsing.

Nonetheless, no one wants a broken family, which is so typical of showbiz marriages. Instead of pursuing legal options, TA and HH opted to make their marriage work. In what was perceived as a desperate effort, TA did something drastic to make HH interested.

However, this new situation did not stop the issue. HH and AM are still together. Thus, TA has decided to let things be in anticipation that HH will come back to his senses and remember his vows at the altar. Perhaps, TA has succumbed to accepting a mistress in their lives if she wants their marriage to last.

TA and HH have different backgrounds. While TA was struggling in showbiz to establish a career, HH was living the life of a typical student in a private school. As TA fretted over her career direction, HH was probably mulling over where he would work after completing his degree. Although HH is a celebrity in his own right, he always seems to have his foot firmly anchored in his private life. As time passed, HH realized that he could not achieve a certain level of conversation with TA, who has spent her whole life in the crazy world of showbiz. Thus, they probably could not achieve the quality communication that HH had expected.  

Some people think that the truth can be hidden with a little cover-up and decoration. But as time goes by, what is true is revealed, and what is fake fades away. -Ismail Haniyeh
