Almost a year to their very public spat that nearly
saw not only the end of their marriage but also
his life, Teebillz has for the first time spoken
about how things would be different if he and
Tiwa Savage could have done it all over again.
He was speaking as a panelist at Mind the Gap X,
a love and relationship class for single, married
and divorced people organized by Pastor Wale
Adefarasin and life coach, Lanre Olusola.
‘If I have the chance of doing my marriage over
again, l will put God first and not have an
elaborate wedding,’ he said.
He went on to describe the tendency for men to
want to be in control of the relationship as wrong.
‘It’s the 21st century and as men, most of us
want to live like we are the lords of the marriage.
You’re a partner. It’s about our weaknesses, we’re
here to help each other.’
The couple, who had an extravagant traditional
wedding in 2013 before topping it up with a
destination wedding at the Armani Hotel, Dubai in
April 2014, broke hearts and the Internet last year
when Teebillz went on an Instagram rant.
In that rant, he accused Tiwa Savage of infidelity
and subsequently attempted to take his own life.
Few days later, the singer released a 45-minute
interview where she revealed that she only had
been pretending to be happy as her husband was
a drug addict and irresponsible father.
The couple have reportedly been undergoing
intense marriage counseling by Lanre Olusola.
And those counselling sessions must be working
as Tiwa and Tbillz have been seen together at
events; she was also on hand to support her
husband as he spoke at this one.
