He shared that at first, it was just him, his mom, and his brother. Later on, due to his brother's bad habits, his mom took him to court and got him emancipated.

At that point, it was just him, and his mom left. Since then, his mom tried to be strict with him. She felt she was too lenient with his brother and so she decided to keep him off the streets so he wouldn't turn out like his brother.

Eniko was about seven to eight months pregnant when she found out. She was having breakfast one morning when she received a DM on her phone. She opened the DM and just lost it.

She called him immediately, asking him how he could let such happen and humiliate her like that as everything was on social media.

It was a lot for her, but she wasn't ready to give up on her family at the time as she wanted her son to grow up knowing his dad.

Years later, the couple is still married and happy together. Eniko opened up that she is glad it happened because he is a better man now because of it.
