Speaking first about his failures and how he failed in marriage, Jim Iyke said:

JIM IYKE: I've failed so many times it's ridiculous, but nobody sees it. I've had a failed marriage, and I have three beautiful kids, and nobody knows. How are you going to know? You can't follow my pattern. Even people that live in my space don't know how I move. I have PAs that don't know where I am. I keep everybody on their toes, that's how I roll. My level of unpredictability has to stay true to me. I hate to be figured out. Once you figure me out, I have nothing else to offer.

"What happened with that marriage? Did you learn anything from that marriage, and what caused it to fail?"

JIM IYKE: I caused it to fail. I'm not the one that will sit down here and berate anybody for my mistakes. The first thing, they say 'to boss up, own up'. There is a part of me that would take the easy route out. Everytime I did something mediocre in my life, I always did it when I was emotional. Because I'm extremely proficient in being deliberate and being strategic about everything I do. So everytime I failed, it was because I got emotional, and then I became mediocre, then I appealed to the smaller man in me - the superficial part and the part that wasn't emotionally intelligent. I suffered a loss. My mum is like my best friend, my co-partner, my business partner. When I lost my mum, I couldn't find my feet for years. There's a lifestyle there, there's a spirituality, there's a connection that I lost. And I just wanted to live my life outside of the world. Because the mistake was already made. It took them 72 hours to tell me I had lost my mum. I had to take charge and I forgot to grieve. Just when I was getting over it, my woman was pregnant with my first son. Then I had quiet space, there was nobody around me, there was nobody to take care of anymore, and the grief hit me. The loss hit me. I didn't know how to stand. I couldn't sleep days on end. I was irritative. I wasn't the loving man she met. I lost my sense of humor, I lost the lion in me, I lost the leader in me. I just gave myself to the elements, and she suffered for that. After a while she said "I can't find who I married," and we parted as friends.
