At 35, Yemi Alade is Still Single and Doesn’t Have a Husband

The singer is single and has never been married before. Ever since Yemi Alade entered the spotlight through her 2014 hit song, Johnny, she has become one of the most popular female artists in Nigeria and across the African continent. Her constant busy life and desire for freedom have left the talented music star searching for her soul mate. Since her rise to stardom, the singer focused more on her blossoming career instead of finding love for herself.

At 35 years old, many people are married with children, but for Yemi, her choice is to follow her passion and establish herself in the music industry. As one of the most successful female artists in Nigeria, Yemi Alade’s public life has been of interest to her many fans. However, it has been a thing of mystery when it comes to her love life and her dating history.

According to the songstress, she barely lived in her house until 2020 because of her tight work schedule. Yemi revealed that she enjoys being alone and has no marriage plans yet. Being single might be her personal decision, but that doesn’t mean the singer hasn’t been having suitors. In an Instagram update, Yemi said that while in Kenya, she was offered 20 cows by a Masai so she could marry him.

More so, a trip to her Instagram page would show you that despite her decision of ruling out getting married anytime soon, the singer has never stopped getting woos from her male fans. Nonetheless, Yemi has been in a few relationships, though yet to be confirmed, fans can’t wait to meet the man in her life.

There is also wide speculation that the Johnny singer might have dated someone in the past, but the relationship didn’t work out, which inspired her 2014 song, Johnny. The singer has recently made the news following her loved-up photos with the famous reggae/dance hall musician, Patoranking.
