Controversial producer-turned-blogger, Samklef, recently shared his reasons for not pursuing a romantic relationship with singer Simi, despite his feelings for her back when they were both struggling artists.

He recalled wanting to ask her out after she broke up with her ex-boyfriend, but ultimately decided against it in order to maintain a boundary between his personal and professional life.

Samklef disclosed this via his X handle on Sunday when he wrote: “I [love emoji] Simi. I almost asked her out o! When she broke 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 not that deep.”

Furthermore, Samklef also alleged that despite his efforts to support Simi, her family treated him poorly.

He wrote, “But Simi family show me pepper sha. After everything I do for her…I don forgive dem. That him over sabi brother where him dey self?”

Simi is now married to her colleague, Adekunle Gold. The couple is blessed with a daughter named Adejare.
