Nigerian singer, Seyi Shay, has opened up about the reasons she could not marry the father of her daughter.
Naijaonpoint recalls that Seyi Shay welcomed her first child, a baby girl, in 2022, barely a year after revealing she was engaged but chose not to disclose her partner’s identity.
In an interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwu on the WithChude podcast, the 39-year-old songstress said her daughter’s father is someone very special to her.
Seyi stated that her baby daddy is a Nigerian in the entertainment industry, adding that they are not married due to a technical issue but maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship.
She said, “Her dad is Nigerian, from Nigeria. And we’re really brilliant friends now, and we coparent really well.
“We’re not married. It’s a technical issue but because he’s not here, I don’t want to speak too much because I’ve not discussed with him about how he might feel.
“He’s someone that is very special to me and this is my daughter’s father. But he’s great, he’s cool, he’s around, he’s in the UK at the moment.
“He’s also in the music industry, on the corporate side of things. And we just work well together, raising our child. We’re great friends.”
