“I Don’t Mind Being a Second Wife” — Tiwa Savage Sets Internet on Fire with Bold Marriage Confession
Reportage Format:
Nigerian music superstar Tiwa Savage has stirred massive reactions across social media after admitting that she is open to being a second wife.
During a candid conversation on the American podcast Lip Service, the Afrobeat queen discussed love, marriage, and respect in relationships. Tiwa revealed that most of her admirers are either older or already married, and she wouldn’t mind joining such a union — provided there is peace and mutual understanding.
In her exact words, Tiwa 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.”
The singer explained that her priority in any relationship is harmony, adding that she would never want to cause emotional pain or disrespect anyone involved.
While some fans praised Tiwa’s honesty and maturity, others criticized her for promoting polygamy, arguing that her statement could send the wrong message to her younger fans.
This revelation adds another chapter to Tiwa’s ever-controversial personal life. The “Somebody’s Son” crooner was previously married to music executive Tunji Balogun (TeeBillz), and they share a son. The marriage ended in 2018 amid public controversy and infidelity rumors.
Her comments have since sparked intense online debates, with many Nigerians questioning whether modern society should normalize second-wife arrangements or continue to uphold traditional monogamous ideals.
