Tiwa Savage looked back on her previous marriage and spoke openly about the impact it had on her outlook. According to her, being the first and only wife did not shield her from pain.
She stated:
“I was a first wife, where did that get me? I got married as the only wife, but here we are. I’m tired of being heartbroken; maybe I’m getting it wrong. Maybe I should try being a second wife.”
But Tiwa was quick to clarify that the statement was not a declaration of interest in polygamy.
To avoid any misunderstanding, the singer emphasized that she does not want to become a second wife.
She explained:
“It’s not my choice, though. I don’t want to. I wish I could tell my truth, but I will be dragged.”

Netizens react to Tiwa Savage's interview
Legit.ng compiled the reactions of social media users below:
@Clarissa Davis:
"I think I'd be better in a second marriage because I'm older. I was my ex-husband's second wife. He's on his third. Seems happier. I'm still looking for who I'll spend my golden ticket (the golden years) on. We were very young, grew up together, in that marriage. Now I know what I want and need out of a partner"
@Christopher Kezie Ikeowa:
"A time comes in one's life that he should face reality and push aside all the fantasies playing in his brain. That's wisdom"
@Folasheyi Aremu Adewole
"Tell tiwa to dp me, I got something for her"
@Muideen Babatunde Eleniyan:
"Where ever you found your peace is your home being the first, second or only one is not the thing now"
@Kyoko Lo-Ha:
"It’s not for everyone, but those who can do it…. It’s beautiful. What I don’t get is people having more than one child and talking about a spouse can’t love more than one spouse. How you loving all them kids? "
