In December 1976, his family experienced a significant change when his parents separated. His mother took on the responsibility of gaining employment and raising the two sons alone, which led to the family facing financial challenges and eventually living in housing subsidized under Section 8, a program designed for low-income families.
The financial constraints, exacerbated by his mother's ability to secure on limited full-time employment, compelled Hayman to become independent at the age of 17, when he moved out to start his own journey.
