Contrary to the claims, the footage showed Tiwa Savage discussing a past phase of her life, including the backlash she faced in 2021 and her relationship with her son.

There was no mention of pregnancy, nor any reference to Young Jonn in that context.

Instead, the singer spoke about her personal growth and her bond with her 10-year-old son, Jamil, following her 2018 divorce from music executive Tunji Balogun.

As the story gained attention, neither Tiwa Savage nor Young Jonn issued any statement to support the claim.

With no credible confirmation and no evidence in the video, the rumour has now been widely regarded as false.

She explained that childbirth affected her emotionally and professionally, admitting she struggled to bond with her son after learning she was expecting a boy instead of a girl.

The singer added that her body changes after childbirth, and losing a major Pepsi campaign deepened her struggles, although she now describes her son, Jamil, as her best friend.
