Simi: I’ve never experienced heartbreak in a relationship

Simi, the singer and songwriter, says she has never experienced heartbreak in a relationship before. 

In a recent interview, the singer said despite never been heartbroken, writing songs about heartbreak “came to me easily”.

Simi said she is an advocate for people who have been heartbroken, adding that this informed her latest single titled ‘Stranger’.

“I don’t think I have ever been heartbroken. I don’t know, that song came to me very easily. I guess I’m just a champion for people that have taken breakfasts severally,” she said.

“I’m here for them. I mean, somebody has to be. I remember that I was thinking that I like love a lot, I think about love a lot.

“And I felt like one angle that I probably haven’t explored like that is you are in a relationship, they have not given you breakfast yet but you just feel like you’ve changed so much.

“You are doing things, accepting things or adapting to things that normally you never would. And then one day, you look at yourself in the mirror, and you are like, I don’t know that person.

“I feel like that was the perspective that would be nice to sing about or write about. That is going on in my feelings as well.

“And I feel like people would be able to relate with it, especially people that are currently going through a heartbreak.”

Simi and Adekunle Gold tied the knot in January 2019. The couple welcomed their first child together the following year.

Simi broke into the mainstream with her single ‘Tiff’ in 2014.
