Nigerian music superstar Tiwa Savage has revealed that she has never experienced true love, except for the bond she shares with her son Jamil.
In a recent interview with Zeze Mills, the 45-year-old singer reflected on her past relationships, admitting that what she once believed was love may have been “mere infatuation”.
“I don’t think I’ve experienced true love apart from my son. Because every time I look back at all my relationships, I’m like, nah, that wasn’t love,” she said.
“I was just infatuated. At that time, I thought I was in love. I don’t think I experienced true love even when I was married.”
Savage, who has been open about her romantic struggles in the past, however, questioned whether love was ever meant for her.
“Maybe love isn’t for me because I have tried over and over again, so maybe love isn’t for me this lifetime,” she added.
“I don’t think I’ve experienced true love apart from my son.”

In December last year, the songstress opened up about her divorce from Tunji ‘TeeBillz‘ Balogun, her ex-husband.
The duo, who married in 2013, divorced in 2018 after efforts to resolve the differences in their marriage proved abortive.
The ‘Kele Kele’ hitmaker had claimed her ex-husband was responsible for the divorce. She said at the time, she was struggling with postpartum depression after giving birth to their son.
The singer said she faced intense criticism from the public, with many attacking her without giving her a chance to share her side of the story.
She also recalled how some prominent figures advised her to remain silent about the incident to protect her reputation.
