No wonder they split!
Janet Jackson made a lot of changes during her marriage to Wissam Al Mana, but in the end, she "felt like a prisoner," according to Us Weekly.
Her brother Randy claimed the billionaire businessman was verbally abusive, but it was also the singer's attempts to fit into his lifestyle that increasingly wore her down. "She felt hidden from family and friends. Her life was sheltered," a source dished to the mag.
Michael Jackson's little sis found love with her Middle Eastern beau after her breakup with longtime love Jermaine Dupri, and he was everything she was looking for during that period of her life.
"He swept in at just the right time. He bailed her out and whisked her away to the Middle East. Janet lived a very lavish life with him. His money could afford them a lot of privacy, which was what she craved. Janet was never very maternal before, but that changed with Wissam. He really wanted a baby and she was ready. She realized she found the right guy," the source added.
Al Mana wanted a "traditional wife that stuck to Muslim traditions," and the songstress realized she was never going to be that person.
“Janet felt like she couldn’t be herself anymore. Janet felt like her music was suffering and she resented Wissam. She couldn’t settle down and be what he wanted. She put her foot down and said no. Janet wanted to get her life back," the insider revealed.
At least she got her adorable baby boy Eissa out of the relationship!
