Sensational singer, Tiwa Savage is
certainly enjoying the joy of motherhood. Since she welcomed her tiny
patter of tiny feet, Tiwa has been overjoyed and some might likely say
she shifted all her attention to her tot, Jamal.
In fact, in a recent chat with Saturday Beats,
Tiwa admitted she diverted attention to her child but then she didn’t
allow the love she has for her husband, Ill Bliss to wane.
“Initially when I gave birth to my son,
the attention naturally shifted to Jamal because he would always wake up
every two hours as such, you have to give him all the attention. Child
birth may make your sex life not to be interesting any longer and it may
change your sex life. You may have stretch marks in places you don’t
like but eventually for the sake of your marriage, I would encourage
every woman to look after their husband as well especially after having a
child.
“My husband and I have always been very
good friends before marriage and we are still good friends. You have to
know that you are living for someone else in a marriage so you cannot
make selfish decisions. For example, if I need to make any important
decision in my life, I need to consult my husband because he is the head
of the family. Ultimately, I need to give him that respect because he
has the final say,” she said.
Tiwa said she cannot forget in a hurry a scary experience she had concerning her son.
“The scariest moment I have faced as a
mother was when I was in the delivery room and the doctor told me that
the heart rate of my child had dropped and they had to do a quick
suction to get his heart beating again. My happiest moment as a mother
was the first moment I saw my son in the hospital,” she said.
There were speculations that her fan
base reduced drastically after her child birth. But she shut down the
allegation saying, “Numbers do not lie, since I gave birth, my Instagram
followers have increased to about 1.4 million and I have 1.5 million
followers on twitter. I would actually say that my baby has been a
blessing to me. It has not been easy but I have a handsome son and I
would do whatever it takes and make any sacrifice to give him the best
and that is why I am working hard in my career,” she said.
Tiwa’s brief hiatus during her pregnancy
and as a nursing mother, many would think, provided a vacuum that Jonny
crooner, Yemi Alade, conveniently filled up. Now, Yemi is seen as one
of Tiwa’s greatest rivals.
Tiwa explained that it is only natural for two successful people to be compared but she denied having any rift with Yemi.
She said, “I am aware about the
comparison but it happens in any industry for artistes to be compared
with their counterparts. We have the case of Davido and Wizkid, Beyonce
and Rihanna, among others. It is just natural when you have two people
doing great things. There is actually no beef between me and Yemi.
“I love what she is doing and she also
loves what I am doing. We do not have any collaboration together now and
we are not working on any project but if it happens, God willing, I
would be happy to be a part of it.”
