McBrown discusses marital issues and how her divorce from Maxwell Mensah happened

"Nana Ama McBrown is a public figure, so she has no private life. No public figure has a private life. It is not a secret. It is the truth. That boy (Maxwell) is too young to marry that woman (McBrown).
"That guy has a good future, but not with Nana Ama McBrown. Nana Ama McBrown needs somebody whose age is ahead so she can live better. You can't live a hypocritical life like that."

The counsellor claimed that Maxwell could not make decisions in the marriage due to his young age. He added that the age gap had made the actress responsible for directing the marriage.

Counsellor Lutterodt's remarks about McBrown's marriage came after Afia Schwarzenneger and her ex-husband Lawrence Abrokwa's messy divorce.
