Afrobeats queen Tiwa Savage has put an end to years of speculation surrounding her relationship with fellow superstar Wizkid, confirming in a recent interview that their bond is rooted in respect and friendship rather than romance.
Speculation about a possible romance between the two intensified after the release of their hit collaboration “Fever”. Their undeniable on-screen chemistry, stage performances, and frequent public interactions led many fans to believe they were secretly involved.
Matters escalated when Tiwa once revealed in an older interview that she had been in a private relationship with a well-known figure who preferred to keep things discreet while still openly flirting with others. The public quickly connected the dots to Wizkid, sparking endless headlines and online debates.
Addressing the issue directly, Tiwa Savage clarified that Wizkid was not the mystery partner she referred to in the past. Instead, she praised him, emphasizing that their relationship is one of mutual admiration.
“Shout-out to Wizkid, I love and respect him,” she said. “The celebrity partner I said I dated wasn’t Wizkid.”
Her statement officially dismisses the long-running rumors and confirms that their closeness is purely platonic, built on artistry and friendship.
This clarification highlights how easily the lines between artistic chemistry and real-life relationships can blur in the entertainment industry. While the fantasy of a Tiwa-Wizkid romance may have fascinated fans, the reality is a strong professional bond and enduring friendship.
With the speculation finally addressed, fans can focus on celebrating the two stars for their remarkable contributions to Afrobeats both as individuals and as a dynamic duo in music collaborations.
