Veteran Nigerian musician Baba Fryo has reacted to the collapsed marriage between 2face Idibia and Annie Macaulay.
He recently attributed their divorce to their shared entertainment lifestyle, and fans have been reacting.
Speaking on the Honest Bunch podcast, the music legend said that the couple’s inability to manage their marriage was due to both of them being in the entertainment industry.
According to him, husband and wife hustling as entertainers in the same industry is bound to create conflict in the long run, especially when their careers are not properly handled.
He revealed that traditionally, Annie should be the stabilising force in her home while 2baba works hard to take care of his family.
“2Face and his ex-wife didn’t manage themselves well. They are both entertainers. Annie is an actress, and 2Face is a musician.
In marriage, when the couple are out, the woman must watch the man. When the man is drinking, the woman will be watching him, and if he is drinking too much, the woman will calm him. But if you marry a woman who also drinks, when you’re both drunk, who will take the other home?” he said.
He further noted that it is impossible for stability to be achieved when both partners indulge in identical habits.
The veteran concluded by saying that men in such marriages eventually go out to look for a woman with a different lifestyle.
“When a man sees that, he will become insecure in the marriage. And when he goes out and sees another woman with a different attitude… I’m not saying it’s a good attitude, oh, because even 2Face’s current lover, Natasha, is someone I have known,” he added.
