Fashion designer and social media personality, Veekee James, has opened up about her experience as a newly married woman, giving fans a humorous glimpse into what married life has been like for her.

Veekeee James has been married to Femi Atere since February 2024.

In a lighthearted interview with Pulse Nigeria, Veekee described her marriage so far as fun, exciting, and very sweet, noting that she hasn’t had to deal with any serious surprises—except one unexpected but hilarious discovery.

She said,

“To be honest, married life has been fun and exciting and very sweet. So I wouldn’t say there has been any surprises."

But just as fans settled into the fairy-tale description, Veekee threw in a dose of reality.

She stated,

“Apart from the fact that now, you can just be lying down with somebody on the bed and the person can just fart for no reason and you are like aaahh. What is really the problem?”

She added with laughter that her husband even intentionally opens the duvet just so she can “take it in,” describing it as both “disgusting” and one of the little surprises that come with marriage.

Veekee shares real-life moments

While many fans view celebrity marriages through the lens of perfection, Veekee’s honest and funny confession is a reminder that real-life marriages come with quirky, human moments too. She said, despite the surprises, she’s loving every part of her journey as a wife.

“It sounds disgusting, right? But these are the things that happen in marriage and that I can call surprises. Aside from that, it has been amazing.”

"There's a difference between dating and marriage" - Marriage counsellor

A marriage counsellor, Sade Opanuga, has reacted to Veekee Jame's complained about her husband farting at random and making her 'enjoy' the flavour.

She noted that before marriage Femi might not have farted in the presence of his then fiancee. He would have been maintaining his steeze before her. But the moment they are married, he has the freedom to be himself and does it as it comes. She said:

"I have always told my clients that there is no how you will know every habit of your fiancé or fiancée during courtship. Some traits that would be unveiled during marriage. But for a husband or wife fart in the presence of their partner means they are comfortable with each other. Unless the man is a tyrant, and in that case, Veekee James won't be laughing when talking about it. It has become a fun thing between them. That's why I always tell people there is a difference between courtship and marriage."
