The Nigerian singer and songwriter made the candid remark during a recent appearance on the American podcast Lip Service, where she discussed her personal life, relationships, and dating challenges.
According to the Afrobeats star, her romantic options have become limited as she grows older, with potential partners often being in their fifties or already committed.
“I’m like a sugar mama, but I don’t want to be,” Tiwa Savage said. “If I meet somebody who can really marry me, they are either in their 50s or already married.
So, I don’t know. Maybe I can be a second wife. I think so. I could be a second wife.”
The Somebody’s Son crooner went on to explain that if she ever found herself in such a situation, she would not be a troublesome co-wife, stressing that she values peace, respect, and independence in her relationships.
“I think I can go along with the first wife, and she’s going to love me because I’m not going to be troublesome,” she said with a laugh.
“I’m going to be going on tours, and I’m not really going to stress you. I’m very respectful. I know that you are the first wife and would accord you that respect.”
Her remarks have drawn widespread reactions online, with fans and commentators offering mixed opinions—some praising her honesty, while others expressed surprise at her openness about polygamy.
Tiwa Savage, who shares a son with her ex-husband, music executive Tunji Balogun (popularly known as TBillz), was married in 2013 before their split in 2018.
Their union ended amid mutual allegations of infidelity.
