Mayorkun says he wants a prenup and a DNA test before starting a family, and his girlfriend isn’t happy about it. Here’s what he said on a recent podcast.
Mayorkun just said something on a podcast that has people talking. Before he starts a family, he wants a prenup and a DNA test for any child he has. His girlfriend? Not thrilled.
He says he already told her about his plans, and it didn’t go down well. She got upset. Honestly, can you blame her?
Wanting a DNA test is one thing. Plenty of men in Nigeria say the same, and the topic is all over timelines right now. But Mayorkun went further and admitted he’s thought about doing it secretly.
“I’ve thought of doing the DNA test without telling her,” he said.
That’s the line that made people pause. A secret test, done behind the mother’s back, is a very different thing from asking openly.
He also said that if the child turns out not to be his, he’d make the result public. So the stakes, in his mind, are pretty high.
Wait, is there a child already?
No, and this is important. Mayorkun didn’t say he has a child, and he didn’t say anyone has cheated on him. He was talking about what he expects in a future marriage.
So this isn’t a scandal or a reveal. It’s more of a “here’s how I see things” moment. Still, saying it out loud in public is bound to stir up feelings.
He connected both ideas to one thing: he’d rather settle the tough questions before marriage than scramble after things fall apart.
A prenup, in simple terms, is an agreement couples sign before the wedding about how money and property would be handled if the marriage ends.
Some people will say he’s just being careful. Others will say it sounds like he doesn’t trust the woman he’s planning a future with. Both reactions are understandable.
What’s clear is that the girlfriend’s reaction says a lot. When one person sees “protection” and the other sees “suspicion,” that’s a conversation worth having properly.
Whether they work it out is anyone’s guess. For now, the internet has plenty to say, and this topic isn’t going away anytime soon.
