His lover Priscilla (Jackie Appiah) provided him emotional and financial support. Priscilla who is not rich and works as a seamstress, is always being bashed by her colleagues Evelyn (Roselyn Ngissah) and Angela (Victoria Lebene Mekpah) because of her love and unflinching support for Thompson. Her faith in him becoming successful in God's time is very strong and he does within a year.

They get married, are happy and expecting their first child, when Thompson receives pictures that show Priscilla with another man. This gives him the impression that she is cheating and leads to the collapse of the marriage. Evelyn introduces her boyfriend to Priscilla at some point.
