Nigerian Afrobeat icon, Tiwa Savage has set social media ablaze after revealing she’s open to being a second wife.
The award-winning singer shared her views during a chat on the American podcast Lip Service, where she spoke candidly about love, marriage, and respect in relationships.
Tiwa explained that many of her admirers are either older or already married. Rather than dismissing the idea, she admitted she wouldn’t mind being a second wife, as long as the relationship is built on peace and mutual respect.
In her words, she said:
“I can be a second wife, but I will do it with respect. I believe the first wife will also appreciate that, and she’s going to love me, I won’t stress her.”
She emphasized that her goal in any relationship is harmony, ensuring no one feels hurt or disrespected.
While some fans praised Tiwa for her honesty and confidence, others slammed her statement, calling it controversial. Many questioned why she would even consider such an arrangement, especially given her role as a role model to younger fans.
This isn’t the first time Tiwa Savage’s personal life has made headlines. She was married to music executive Tunji Balogun, with whom she shares a son. Their marriage ended in 2018 amid rumors of infidelity.
Tiwa’s openness has divided fans online, sparking debates on whether society should embrace second-wife arrangements or stick to conventional marriage rules.
