Award-winning gospel musician Herty Borngreat has revealed that her extended absence from the  music scene was a deliberate decision to focus on raising her nine children and pursuing her personal development.

Speaking about her hiatus on Onua TV’s ShowTime, the singer explained that motherhood became her top priority as her family grew. According to her, dedicating time to nurturing her children was more important than maintaining an active music career during that period.

Herty disclosed that she is now a mother of nine and wanted to be fully present in their formative years. 

“All my nine children were born through natural childbirth. It wasn't an easy journey at all, and there were moments that tested my strength and resilience. Balancing motherhood with ministry, music and other responsibilities came with its own challenges, but by God's grace, I was able to navigate them,” she said. 

The gospel artiste noted that although she stepped away from the spotlight, she never abandoned her calling to ministry. She continued serving through church activities and other forms of Christian outreach while focusing on her family.

However, she was quick to acknowledge the support she has received from her husband, Bishop Daniel Borngreat, whom she credited for helping her raise their children. Herty disclosed that together they are raising seven girls and two boys.

Known for hit songs such as Bebree and her collaborations with Ghanaian stars such as Sarkodie, Herty assured fans that her passion for gospel music remains intact.
