Ghanaian jazz queen Stephanie Benson is inspirational in so many ways. Managing a successful career with five children while intentionally nurturing her marriage of decades can not be an easy feat, but she makes it look effortless.
In an era where marriage has been made so unappealing to the youth with so many horrible examples everywhere you look, Stephanie Benson and her husband John Benson have broken the mould.

Unlike the likes of Tracey Boakye who are trying so hard to make their marriages look beautiful to their haters while there is clearly fire on the mountain, the Bensons seem to have gone past frivolous aesthetics and are truly happy with each other.
What might the secret to their marital longevity be? Some have maliciously attributed it to the fact that her husband is caucasian and therefore comes without all the drama and polygamous mentality a lot of African men are prone to. But there are so many real examples of why that is fallacious.
From all accounts, it is obvious that the two of them intentionally put in the work to make their marriage flourish. And a good marriage is not necessarily devoid of misunderstandings. According to Stephanie Benson, her husband worships the ground she walks on, and for that reason, she would choose him every day no matter how angry she is with him.

The “All About Love” crooner celebrated her husband John on her social media with a video of them both gushing over each other with the caption “No matter how bad it gets or how angry I am with him, I know my heart will always be safe in his hands. He worships it everyday and for that reason I will always choose him. 🥰”.
The lesson here is choosing each other no matter the circumstances and being intentional about making our significant others feel special to us everyday.
