Kampala — Media personality Sasha Ferguson has effectively confirmed the end of her marriage to Canary Mugume, using a powerful public statement that has shifted the narrative from rumours of reconciliation to serious concerns around domestic abuse.
In a response shared via her social media platforms, Sasha dismissed suggestions that she could reconcile with her estranged husband, stating emphatically that “they don’t beat a pregnant woman and no woman should ever accept that — pregnant or not.” The remark has since gone viral, widely interpreted as the clearest indication yet that the marriage is irretrievably broken.
Unlike previous public breakups marked by vague explanations, Sasha’s remarks introduced a grave dimension to the separation. By referencing violence against a pregnant woman, she reframed the conversation from marital discord to moral and legal boundaries.
In the same response, Sasha accused unnamed individuals of spreading falsehoods to assassinate her character and justify “wrong being done in broad daylight,” warning that people who knowingly play victim despite the truth are “very dangerous to be with.”
Though she did not explicitly name Canary Mugume in the allegation, the context and timing left little doubt in the public eye about whom the remarks were directed at.
No Reconciliation on the Table
The comments appear to put to rest weeks of speculation about possible reconciliation between the two. Earlier silence from both parties had fueled rumours that the couple could resolve their differences privately. However, Sasha’s firm stance suggests the chapter has fully closed.
Observers note that her language was not emotional but resolute, signaling finality rather than negotiation.
As of publication, Canary Mugume has not issued a public response to the claims or to Sasha’s statement. His silence has drawn mixed reactions online, with some calling for accountability and others urging restraint pending further clarification.
A Broader Message
Beyond the personal fallout, many have interpreted Sasha Ferguson’s words as a broader message to women enduring abusive relationships. Her insistence that violence is unacceptable under any circumstance has resonated widely, especially among women and advocacy groups online.
“She didn’t just end a marriage,” one social media commentator noted, “she drew a line many women are afraid to draw publicly.”
Moving Forward
Sasha has since emphasized self-reliance, resilience, and working for her children, noting that even when responsibilities are ignored, dignity and safety must come first.
As the story continues to unfold, one thing remains clear: with a single sentence — “they don’t beat a pregnant woman” — Sasha Ferguson has firmly closed the door on reconciliation and reframed the end of her marriage as a stand against abuse rather than a celebrity fallout.
