Joseph Mayanja alias Jose Chameleone known for his immense success in Uganda’s music industry has publicly acknowledged the challenges he faces as a father. Despite his stardom, the Leone Island boss admits balancing fatherhood and his career is difficult.
In an honest confession, Chameleone revealed that he is struggling to navigate his roles as a father and a celebrity because his children sometimes judge him, perceiving his actions as a desire to show off his fame.
Fatherhood is very challenging for me. I will be honest with you. Putting showbiz aside, I’m struggling to be a father. My kids sometimes think when I behave in some type of way, it is because I’m a star so they remind me that I’m not a star and I should stop thinking that the world is bowing down for me.
It is a big challenge. I’m actually struggling to be a star and a father at the same time. It is a big deal. But slowly by slowly I tell my kids that as they grow, they will see the reasons as to why I struggle like this, he said.
Jose Chameleone’s admission comes amidst his highly publicized separation from his wife Daniella Atim with whom they share five children; Abba, Alfa, Alba, Amma, and Xara.
The couple’s marriage collapsed, and his wife has since relocated to the US together with the children, seeking asylum from domestic violence.
She has on countless times taken to social media to expose the musician’s past behavior, encouraging women in the same situation to walk away.
