Tima Kumkum confirms her second marriage has ended, reveals they separated in April 2025

• Tima Kumkum has confirmed the breakdown of her second marriage, revealing that she and her husband separated on 1 April 2025.

• She disclosed that she initially hid the separation from her children, telling them their father had travelled before eventually explaining the situation to them about six months later.

• Despite the separation, Tima said her estranged husband remains involved in their child’s life and continues to pay the child’s school fees.

The television personality made the disclosure during an emotional interview with actress and TV host Nikki Samonas on Joy Prime, where she became tearful while recounting the impact the separation has had on her and her family.

Before entering her second marriage, Tima Kumkum had spent seven years raising her children as a single parent. She said her children eventually welcomed her new partner and developed a close relationship with him, affectionately referring to him as “daddy”.

According to Tima, the family enjoyed a period of happiness before circumstances began to change. Her husband eventually left their family home on 1 April 2025.

She admitted that she initially struggled to tell the children that their father had left, particularly because of the close bond they had formed with him.
