Michael Essien cheated on his wife with me - Princess Shyngle reveals

Gambian actress Princess Shyngle has says she dated Michael Essien while married to his wife Akosua Puni, claiming she is not 'technically ' involved with the football star.

The actress, who is now based in Ghana, revealed she was in an amorous relationship with the former Chelsea star for a year.

The sexy actress has been chronicling personalities she dated and appears the former Real Madrid and AC Milan man was not left out of the tall list.

“I dated him. I had no idea he was married. I had no reason to ask him because I never saw wedding ring on his finger and there were obviously no pictures of him and any woman on a social media so I assumed that he was a single man,” she revealed on the Delay Show

When asked if she was still in a relationship with Essien she answered in the negative. “Technically, no! What happened was I got to know that he was married and that was a deal breaker for me. Obviously we were out in public which was a dumb move and I got contacted by some people that he was married and then I decided to google and I found out that he was really married,” she said.



Essien is currently married to Ghanaian entrepreneur Akosua Puni.

He has announced his retirement from international football.
