Samklef, a music producer and blogger, has opened up about his previous affections for singer Simi, admitting why he never asked her out despite having deep emotions for her during their early days as struggling musicians.
In a recent social media post, Samklef admitted that he considered asking Simi out when she was going through a breakup with her ex-boyfriend, Lekan, but opted against it to retain a professional connection and prevent jeopardising their working dynamic.
Samklef also said that, despite his friendly gestures to Simi, her family mistreated him, leaving him with a bad taste in his mouth. However, he has forgiven them and moved on.
Simi is now happily married to her colleague, Adekunle Gold, and they share a beautiful daughter named Adejare.
Samklef’s candid revelation has sparked a conversation about unrequited love, professionalism, and the complexities of relationships in the entertainment industry.
In his words: “I ❤️ SIMI. I almost ask her out o! When she break up with her ex lekan for experience that year But I had to keep it professional make e for no spoil business…Adekunle help me greet your wife for me. Life is it not that deep. 😂
