Monday, December 8, 2025 - Nigerian gospel singer Shola Allyson has shocked many with a rare, honest revelation about her marriage
During a new interview with Oyinmomo TV, the 54-year-old
singer — known for her classic love album Eji Owuro — said she
is still married but no longer lives with her husband.
According to her, the fairytale many people describe in
marriage has never been her reality.
“I’m married, but I’m not in my husband’s house. We live
separately,” she said.
When asked if she ever experienced genuine love — especially
since she sang one of Nigeria’s most iconic love songs — Shola explained that
older generations misled many into thinking love alone guarantees a happy home.
In her words, “We lied before. Those older than us didn’t
inform us that it’s tough. They made us believe that so long as you both love
each other, you will live happily ever after, but it’s a lie. That’s not the
experience I have. I didn’t have the experience of living happily ever after. I
did all I could to make it work.”
Her confession has already started stirring reactions online
as fans say they didn’t expect such a vulnerable revelation from the singer.
