Popular Nigerian singer, May D, has opened up about his marriage to his Swedish wife, which ended during the tumultuous period of the COVID-19 pandemic. The singer made this revelation during an appearance on the Honest Bunch podcast, where he shared intimate details of his life and the events that led to the dissolution of his marriage.
May D recounted how his relationship with his then-girlfriend blossomed, with her making frequent visits to Nigeria to see him. Their love story eventually led to marriage, and the singer moved to Sweden to be with her. During his time in Sweden, May D became a stay-at-home husband, taking care of their child while his wife pursued her career and was often away at work.
However, the global COVID-19 pandemic marked a turning point in their relationship. According to May D, he found himself stuck in Nigeria due to travel restrictions, unable to return to Sweden. The separation and uncertainty brought on by the pandemic created tension in their marriage, ultimately leading to their divorce.
He shared his thoughts on the challenges of being a stay-at-home husband, describing the sacrifices he made to keep their family intact. Reflecting on the experience, he admitted that the circumstances surrounding the pandemic amplified the difficulties in their marriage, making reconciliation impossible.
