Love Is Not My Portion In This Lifetime – Tiwa Savage

Nigerian music sensation Tiwa Savage has made a poignant admission, revealing that she no longer harbors hope of experiencing true romantic love.

Speaking with British-Nigerian media personality ZeZe Mills, the award-winning songstress offered a glimpse into her personal life, confessing that despite her fame and success, she has never genuinely felt loved by a partner.

Tiwa reflected on her 2013–2018 marriage to Tunji Balogun, popularly known as Teebillz, stating that she once thought she had found love, but later realised it was just a fleeting infatuation.

Now, as a devoted mother to her 10-year-old son, Jamil, she maintains that he is her only source of pure, unconditional love.

“I don’t think I’ve been loved for a very long time. I don’t think I’ve experienced true love apart from my son,” Tiwa confessed. “Every time I look back at my relationship, I realise that it wasn’t love, it was just infatuation.”

After experiencing numerous setbacks and heartbreaks, Tiwa has accepted that romantic love might not be part of her life’s plan.
“I don’t think I’ve experienced that soulmate thing,” she admitted, her voice heavy with resignation. “I’ve tried over and over again. I don’t think love is for me in this lifetime.”

Her words, stripped of celebrity gloss, echo with the pain of a woman who has seen the fragility of romance up close — and decided she will no longer chase an illusion.
