Mavin Records boss Don Jazzy has shared a lighthearted theory suggesting that wedding cake choices are why modern marriages fail more often than those of the older generation.
In a video posted on his Instagram page, the music mogul compared the long-lasting fruit cakes used by parents in the past to the fragile options favoured by couples today.

Don Jazzy explained that in previous generations, parents made alcohol-infused fruit cakes designed to last for a full year so they could eat the remains on their first anniversary.

"You know, back in the days, our parents, like when they get married, they used to, like, the cake. They used to make like this fruit cake. They would design the cake, and then they would cut some, they would serve some for the guests, and then they would leave the rest of the cake for like one year."
The producer further mentioned that current marriages might be struggling because people now use butter ice cream cakes or even giant plastic displays that lack the endurance of traditional recipes.
"So maybe that is why your people's marriages are not working because people don't leave that cake, that alcohol fruit cake thing for one year and eat it in the next year."
The music mogul ended his video by jokingly acknowledging the absurdity of his observation, stating that he didn't know if his theory was valid.
"I don't know. Maybe I'm high. I didn't smoke sha."
Reacting to Don Jazzy's post, Tiwa Savage playfully asked:
"Is that why they said 'you can't have your cake and eat it too' ๐ค๐ค๐ค"
Fans found the theory both hilarious and surprisingly thought-provoking, with many engaging playfully with the idea.
