  • Afrobeats queen Tiwa Savage has stirred social media after revealing her readiness to becoming a second wife, saying most of the men who approach her are already married or in their 50s.

Nigerian music superstar Tiwa Savage has stirred a wave of online reactions after revealing she’s open to the idea of becoming a second wife, saying most of her potential partners are now either married or in their 50s.

Speaking candidly on the Air Service Podcast in the United States, the 45-year-old Afrobeats icon shared how her views on love and relationships have evolved over time.

“If I meet somebody who can really marry me, they are either in their 50s or already married. So, I don’t know… maybe I can be a second wife,” Tiwa said with a laugh.

The “Somebody’s Son” crooner went on to explain that she wouldn’t be a difficult co-wife if such a situation ever arose.

“I think I can get along with the first wife, and she’s going to love me because I’m not going to be troublesome. I’ll be going on tours, I’m not going to stress you. I’m very respectful. I know you’re the first wife, and I would accord you that respect,” she added.

Her comments have since gone viral, drawing diverse opinions from fans and critics. Some praised her honesty, while others questioned her openness to polygamy — a topic that has recently gained attention in Nigeria’s celebrity circles.

Just days ago, veteran comedian Ali Baba defended polygamy, arguing that it helps reduce cheating and fosters peace in homes.

Tiwa Savage, who was previously married to music executive Tunji Balogun (TBillz) from 2013 to 2018, shares a son with her ex-husband. Their marriage ended following mutual accusations of infidelity and emotional strain.

Since the split, Tiwa has remained focused on her music career, performing on international stages and cementing her reputation as the Queen of Afrobeats.

Her latest comments, though humorous, have reignited discussions on modern relationships, age, and cultural perceptions of polygamy in the entertainment world.
