Simi, the talented Nigerian singer, recently shared the heartwarming story of how she met her soulmate, Adekunle Gold, during an interview on Beat FM. The mother of one revealed the fascinating journey that led them to find each other and build a strong bond.
In her narration, Simi disclosed that during her gospel music days, Adekunle Gold was an ardent fan of hers and had sent her numerous messages on Facebook. However, she was unaware of these messages and had no knowledge of him at that time.
Fate eventually brought them together at one of Simi’s musical performances, where Adekunle Gold attended as an admirer. After the event, he mustered the courage to approach her and express his deep admiration as a fan. Simi recounted how persistent Adekunle Gold was in his pursuit, exploring every possible means to capture her attention. His relentless efforts paid off as she was drawn to his kindness, and they eventually became friends.
According to Simi, Adekunle Gold asked her to be his girlfriend that same year, and their love story blossomed from there. They shared five beautiful years of dating before sealing their commitment in marriage in 2019.
Reflecting on their initial interactions, Simi fondly recalled the early days of their connection. Adekunle Gold had already heard Simi’s album when she was well-known in the gospel community. Despite sending her messages on Facebook, it wasn’t until they began dating that Simi discovered those unseen DMs. Their reunion at one of Simi’s shows sparked the friendship that ultimately evolved into a romantic relationship.
Simi described Adekunle Gold as a genuinely nice person and admitted that his character played a significant role in her decision to pursue a relationship with him. She emphasized that, although she had some reservations, his kindness and genuine nature won her over.
