Am not surprised. Congratulations to them. #kachi
She said he shared recent pictures of him and the girls at her ‘home’ but that goes to show she is denying him access to his children and can only see them at her place. She lied.
Why do women always try to claim because they are smaller they can’t be physically abusive? You get away with it because most man will not hit you back
Where was the love you guys pronounced to each other? Please flash back before you draw the table. Marriage is all about tolerance. Love you Simi.
"violence towards someone twice your size..." The size is one partner in relation to the other does not underscore who is violent. It's a spontaneous impulse triggered by impatience and may be hereditary.
The high rate of divorce in Nigeria is caused by ladies, trying to adopt western marriage mentality into their marriage. Here is Africa, men are cultured to expect respect and humility from there wife. Husband and wife are not equal here. Men are the head of the family. Our olden days fathers married many wives and their all stayed loyal to without much divorce like now. Western marriage mentality can't work here leave is or face divorce.
I wish them the best
I am sure I am more than twice my ex wife's size yet she bitch-slapped me everywhere. Simi, that is not an excuse. I found out something about being seperated, most women call for it first. Most men would rather have their family and endure the abuse than be seperated. The women know they are at an advantage cos the court would let them have the kids most of the time so divorce never seem like a bad idea. Marriage is no bed of roses but how some parents trash the need for their children's well-being and get seperated baffles me. Divorce is an option but should be considered as a last resort especially when one party has anger issues.
Who else saw this train wreck coming? After she asked bridesmaids to come to Vegas for bachelorette and proceeded to dump the ones that couldn’t afford the trip. She seem like a self serving difficult individual. Good luck to both of them.... Sid is already out chasing different tails
Linda will be very happy for this. Saddest she love to see homes break.
This is so sad. I had a dream a while back, that things got so good for Sid and to cut the long story short, they settled and were so happy together.
Healing well.
Domestic violence can be verbal not just physical. And a lot of women are physically abusive from spitting on their men, throw objects, push their heads and even hitting them knowing the men won’t do much. So, twice the size is a lame excuse
Everything that glitters isn’t gold
Women are just as violent as men, worst with their abusive words. Their slaps, hits should not be underestimated because of their smaller size, it’s very painful. Women will aggravate their men in every possible way to get a response. Then complain when he reacts. My ex had serious hot temper and hated when she doesn’t have her way. We got into an argument one day, she flung her purse at me, the metal strap hit my face. It took God that day not to beat the hell out of her bcos that hurt. She later apologized that she didn’t know it will hit me. But I remember grabbing her strongly, and warned her never to try that mess whether throw her shoes, purse whatever. That was the last time.!
This is totally Sad. What's so difficult about Be Married Forever?
Mumu....try a serious relationship first before you become a marriage specialist
Erm marriage isn’t easy. Your comment shows lack of awareness and ignorance
Hahaha... they think marriage is "Chop Chop"😁😁😂🤣✋
What a stupid reason from a stupid woman.. These are things that can be rectify, divorce is not the option.. But am also against abuse cause I will never do that to the woman I get married to cos I know women are weaker
You are dumb. Where did you read about the issues they had for you to know it can be rectified? Some of you comment without even thinking.
What is so difficult in understanding this small comment! What if you are reading for ICAN exam, how will you comprehend the voluminous books!
Wishing both of you happinesses.
Woman go back to your husband and make it work. You're forever tied to him until death do you part. You don't just rush in and out of marriage. You're just 5yrs in the business and you're already tired. Who told you there's an angel in the form of a man out there. Say NO to divorce
And the onus is always on the woman to go back to the husband abi? Your level of stupidity and narrowmindeness is shocking.
We knew they had issues we knew shit was wrong with their union oh well it's d end for dem omatse
Oh marriage, marriage, marriage...
Women are scum as well. She only married him when his career was booming. Now that things seems to be going south for Dr Said, she stopped loving him and became very aggressive and obnoxious. Men should learn to read in between the lines to know who truly loves them when they have the money to through around.
Because you were there when all these were happening. It’s so easy for people to type rubbish on the net.
She and her family are far richer than he is
Hmmm seems you know them quite well from how you articulated this comment na.
You are stupid. Simi is from an affluent home so it's the other way round stupid
No, that's certainly not the case. Simi is from an affluent background, it was even a step down for her when she married a B-list artiste like Dr Sid.
affluent home you refer to is not true o ...audio matter but we move ...no need to bring up stories
Da kinda news i dont like seeing..Ama end up not getting married in life but with baby mamas.I think it da best way to go in diz age.
It had ended before it began! Simi wanted too much, a life Dr sid could not afford!! Spoilt nasty lady
Where are her friends that she uninvited to her wedding because they didn’t show up to Vegas for bridal shower? That move was when I knew she was an entitled brat and this her marriage would take the grace of God to work. Meanwhile Sid will be walking around Lagos with tankoko cornrows like he too refused to act right
After all the fanfare their wedding generated.
Ok noted!
Gosh, this woman is veryyy seriouslu ugly.. hmmm.. pretty women are better, atleast one would have enjoyed the pretty part but this one is ugly and yet couldn't give the guy a peaceful marriage or they both couldn't give each other a peaceful marriage..
You are in dire need of brain surgery.
Wow. You’re simply rude. To call someone ugly shows what kind of person you are. Also, remember ‘ugly’ people get married everyday and stay married, b!
Lord have mercy.
After wasting my ticket to Dubai that year Simi..it's well
This is exactly what they wanted you to do.Keep your life private madam 🤦♀️
What a surprise to me personally!!! Nawao! I didn't expect this chacha!
Violent towards someone twice your size...when has size ever been a criteria when it comes to DV??? I'm not saying you're were violent but that's a lame defense towards the allegation...
okay
It is well with you Warning: please don't give a blind eye to attributes in a partner, you know you cannot tolerate for long or adjust to.
Awwwwwww! This is a sad one! I remember when there was report they got a gaged. Someone actually commented that she/he doesn't see any future with the 2 of them together as Dr sid look like a marrying down for Simi. Meaning Simi is too big for Dr sid. Well I guess the person was right!
Marrying down Bawo...who knows the girl
That's their business....
Chai, marriage na wa o
Why do you guys just divorce like this? Una dey collect reward?
Seems tolerance and compromise no longer exist in marriages these days. It's so sad, anyway am getting married next year. PS single to stupor
Hit the like button if this is none of ur God dang business.Odes!
But it's your business to call Meghan a witch? Dumbass!!!
Nigerian celebrities always making fool of themselves. Instead of courting for few years before marriage. they just get married after 2 hangout and few years later the bubbles burst you start hearing nonsense stories about themselves.
When has long period of dating has to do whether marriages will work?
What about Yvonne Jegede that dated her ex husband for years before they married. Their marriage didn't last up to two years. There is no manual to this. Only God has the final say
NAwa oh
MATURE TALK
Not surprised at all, this would have happened years back.Too many divorces these days because there are too many self centered people in Marriages these days unwilling to make any compromises then leave and raise broken children that will raise more and spend all their lives trying to look happy instead of actually being happy. This generation is so messed up!
Marriage is not an easy job. You dont knowbthe struggle couples go through just to keep marrjage going. The real bold ones are those who call it quit knowing you can fix whatbis broken. Life is short to be managing your life. Go all out there and be yourself. If it aint working, let it go. Congrats to you guys, bc another person would rather get themselved killed to keep the marriage just to prove to ppl that there are no issues.
Awesome comment. People loose their lives in this marriage. The main reason is they want to prove to the society that life is good. Smiling and crying. More to life abeg. Better divorce than die or kill someone.
Nawa ooo
Sad! Divorce is bad
Na wa ooooo. Marriage is now a failed institution everywhere. For those of us that is still married, pls stay focused. God is in control
Failure for some. Not for me.
The rate of divorce in Nigeria is becoming worrisome, is it that men and women can't cohabit anymore? How did the older generation do it that we hear them celebrating decades in marriage? Is our generation coursed? What is really happening? People date for years then marry for weeks or months. Can't we change the narratives. God bless and keep all the women and men trying keep and fight for their union
The older generation of women understood what it means for a man to be the head of the house and for the woman to be a woman, to be feminine, to be lovable, to be loving, to be humble, to be submissive and not argumentative, domineering and quarrelsome. The older generation of men knew what it meant for a man to provide for his wife and to be head of the home. This generation of men and women are equality advocates and will never have good marriages as long a that mentality keeps existing. No man wants a fellow man at home as wife, same as no woman wants a man acting like a woman at home. Today's generation are selfish, too independent and too quick to give up and don't give a damn anymore.
Uts western world influence via social media.
Wow. This is sad but on the issue of violence by simi could be true. No smoke without fire.
I believe the story about her being violent. She is a very nasty, mean and cold hearted soul. They had nothing in common. Amazing how even though they had problems and were separated before, she managed to time her ovulation and bamboozled a second child out of him.
Oh shut up simi.. Even ur looks are cold. You have the eyes and looks of a domestic abuser / bully. Its not by size anymore when you talking about a fiery woman. Women can take on their husbands no matter the size difference especially when they know the man would be decent enough not to fight back with all his might. Its the bullying that goes on behind the scenes of many marriages. These kind of women you just fuck em and leave em alone.. Abeg make she kick..Dr. Sid you tried, get on about ur life and leave this bitter soul alone
You wrote all these about someone you don't know ?
He made two mistakes.. first he got married .. second he got married to a woman over 24/25 .. biggest mistakes ever
You sound dumb! Please helps us make sense of this nonsense you’ve said.
I told y'all!! Hope all the Evil Witches that cursed Linda out when she hinted about their separation will be kind enough to apologize here? Simi, you are not the only one who has the blame for the crashing of the marriage. Some people blamed Sid, for many things, including having a side chick when he can bearlly fend for his family.(guess he was searching for happiness and peace of mind that you couldn't give him at home) You on the other hand, took things too far just because he's not too loaded as before. We women can be mean atimes! Ain't nothing wrong in holding the family up for a while until the man find his feet again. But that's okay!! It's a lesson for some guys to learn how to marry someone that loves them instead of running after a Bling of the moment. Sid, you left a good woman that loves you then to marry Simi. you finally learnt that all that it's glitter ain't gold after all. It's been a long time coming, they have been patching this situationship called marriage for like forever. Both of you should just do right by your kids and keep it moving. I don't want to say much about the things I know...🤐😎
Indeed, you really know a lot going by your write up.
I'm sure this has nothing to do with him not being loaded. Women cover for their men all the time especially men that are appreciative and have sense. How can you be not have enough and still be cheating? Not once? Are yall serious ? FOH please
It's not in your place to Judge, see you castigating the woman when you don't even know what went on behind closed doors, why not face your life and look for how to improve it instead of doing aproko in other people's matter which is none of your business. I am sure your life is not so perfect so why are you pokenosing into other people's affairs.
Ok.
Social media marriage doesn't last
Like I give a shit.
Nawaoooo this people can not trusted.
My father in the Lord, Pastor Samson.O.Samson says that, Hatred and Unforgivness cannot take you to hell fire. Fornication, Adultery, Malice, Murder, Fighting, Stealing, Abortion and so on, can never take you to hell fire. What will take you to hell fire is that you refused to accept the solution to all these sins. Jesus Christ is that solution. Why? Before Jesus came, sin has been in existence. Jesus Christ came,that through him you and I would not suffer the consequences, penalty and condemnation of sin on the last day. Jesus is the get away door, our only hope,the Messiah and the only way. My question is, What excuse will you give to God, if you found yourself in the hell on the last day? Come to Jesus now, tomorrow maybe too late. The throne of mercy and grace might not be there tomorrow
All this people sef Dey make me fear marriage ....Shey I go marry like this ??
Let them seperate and be divorced!!! We the social media community has not had peace from their union. So many drama and stories. All d best in ur seperate endavours.
Justina,your comment got me laughing.
I don’t know what these girls and people expect in marriages. These days girls are bread winners...and work hard. I am a woman...many witches lie about their marriages. There is no greener pastures anywhere. What my sister in law does for my family i can’t do it when I am married . My brobther has a good job and earns well. My sister in law earns better...and anchors the home. I have learnt so much in the last few months. Is this girl saying she married him for money. Man are men...white black or asían. Girl go back...work it out. Help each other and work things out.
shut up...which money? has he ever had money? stupid fool, when you eventually marry come back and blame her...ewu
you all idiots insulting the girl...the foolish guy that married her cos she comes from a rich home nko? carry your cross abeg. you broke yet your dick no siddon house....you want peace at home but dont give it...men expect women to swallow all they BS they give but women must tolerate it like true africans. fuck you all...lol...marriage and divorce an both parties to blame
I dont know you,but from your clarifications,i can stand for you.You both wont be the 1st or last to exprience such messy misunderstanding,my advice to you is to chase your dreams and forgive your distractors wholeheartedly.you have your girls that are looking up to you.love you and God bless
Marriage is not for the faint hearted
Celebrities with their 007 Marriage.#umu Igbo fua onwe unu na anya#.
Money don finish na. When money finish na Ben johnson oh for nig women
Watch out very soon she go begin snap and post pictures of her body sooner or later.
They started having issues immediately after their wedding but they we're just managing themselves because of what people will say now it has gotten out of hands
Simi was too fake from beginning..... it was never going to last . She wants to live an un sustainable lifestyle and Dr Sid money not like before. She just too fake It's good for Dr Sid.... marrying old money daughter for name . Simi only went back second time to have baby no 2... once she got pregnant for no 2 it obvious she gotten what she wanted. Children
Ngwanu... Abeg,, I need an older man o! Yo
Very silly woman , same woman who went to organize bridal shower on America and her friends allowed to wallow in self deceit by not showing up
Did you see the ridiculous introduction they did ? They more or less started the trend of big introduction o thought it was engagement / native law . Sid isn’t the first nor to have money they should have helped him . If he also had a side chick then he is very stupid too . The simi lives in a world that doesn’t exist aka lala land , even the real super rich don’t do her oversabi .
Honestly i don't know what Sidney saw in this cap nose lady. Yes she's from a wealthy home and so? Dr Sid this phase will pass and you will come out stronger and better. Sending you love and hugs.
Mad o...😅😂🤣
The reason why Don Jazzy refused to get married.
When the funds stop coming, complaining start, please guys marry for the right reasons.
Seems no understanding and patience in marriage anymore. Wish u guys Well.
God knows if I had stayed till now unmarried I wouldn't have any reason to say I do to any hoo. This is becoming sad and ladies are not seeing the negative effects on the kids and upbringing. In fact don jazzy and other guys that are not married please i counsel you to get a girl pregnant her and take care of your child. No need for putting yourself under pressure of married today on a lavish wedding and divorce tomorrow because ladies are not ready for marriages nowadays and they're shamelessly making it proud to be divorcede and single mothers. This thing continues because broken homes can not advice their children against it tomorrow.
This is what happens when you marry down. They use you to clean ground. She's from affluence old money or not, he was just trying to live his life another woman who went with her heart instead of head
Who is this Simi that is a marry up that Idota comment about...if her parents are rich who are they. What schools did she attend...fuck off people. The guy is. Dentist.
When I read how she uninvited her friends to her wedding cos they didn’t travel to Vegas for her bridal shower I knew she won’t make a good wife. The shit in marriage is too big for a diva like her to handle.
Dr sid no wahala the girl simi na bad luck to you u will see u start having hits once again my father told me about women like this shes only after her self..besides sid we don miss u....the babe na fake ass her smiles r so fake and unnatural she just use your head simple...welcome back to a happy life
Everyone talking about western marriage can’t work blah blah blah. Well what used to happen is if a woman earned more she would give her husband her wages to use for the family, woman submitted blindly to men who were no good and some were lucky to find good. The problem is yes we are in Africa but we are extremely globalised, if you want total submission and old ways then go to live in the village and even then many villages are now modernised. We haven’t got it right, we have to find a balance but stop asking for the way things were knowing that things didn’t end in divorce because people (Woman) would rather stay and die in that marriage than divorce. We can and we will find a balance but you better believe no woman will do what our parents did 💯. So embrace the westernised parts which teaches woman to respect themselves as human beings and remember themselves in marriage and embrace her for wanting to submit also because you are a worthy man. If she refuses submission then maybe she is not for you or maybe you are not worthy of it.
Your comment is the best so far!!!
Good luck to both of them..
This was such a romantic wedding ceremony. So sad......Indeed, we need to revisit the marriage model. I feel most of the changes need to come from Nigerian/African men. Women these days are not your mother's generation. We are a lot more accomplished, independent, and equal contributors if not major contributors to the home both financially and intellectually. Men need to be retrained to see women as equal, respect their contributions. Women don't crap anymore o......Many would rather stay single than deal with bull shit! And we know naija men can give a nice dose of BS!! The family structure is eroding and children are victims especially when the parents are too busy fighting and hating each other......Also, many are too quick to divorce......sometimes what is needed is a long separation, and slowly try to work out the issues......If people invested as much in the marriage as they do on the wedding, bridal shower, honeymoon etc., we probably could avoid a lot of messes.......Hang in there Simi and Sidney.....Wish you both best of luck!
is not good news at all
You people keep saying her father is this and that, while I've googled and seen nothing. Please who is her father and what do they have? Is the money still there?
You’re very stupid for googling about her father. How is that any of your business? Sad idiot
I still believe in the institution of marriage, just because other people's union didn't last doesn't and wouldn't stop me from
If marriage is not a bed of roses, then it means being single is a bed of roses, Ima enjoy my singleness to stupor.
Dear men, marry hustlers. Stop deceiving yourselves that the lady is from a rich home, the rich home won’t be providing for your wife in the marriage, you would. Leave those last name ladies alone they’re mostly lazy and entitled. Find a woman that can help make your own last name great.
Word!
I was rejected by my husband after six (6) years of my marriage just because another woman had been bewitched and that he had left me, as well as the children. one day I was reading on the web, I saw a post on how this caster on this address [email protected], which helped a woman to recover her husband and I gave her an answer to her address and he told me that a woman had a spell on my husband and he told me that he will help me and after 3 days that I will return my husband. I believed it and today I am happy to let you know that the spell done on my husband has been broken, this caster has the power to bring lovers back. because I am now happy to be with my husband again after all the stress I have experienced. Thank you to Prophet Munak. His email: [email protected]
Yahoo Yahoo! Yahoo Yahoo! Yahoo Yahoo!
Scam!
Nigerians women love separation, yes its vital to run away from volatile situations in your marriage the problem with separation is when you start sampling different dicks outside if and when you and your husband reconcile you will keep missing the other dicks. That's why it usually doesn't work when women go back. Most of the married women I've unknowingly slept with are usually seriously sex starved, its unbelievable. So after having mind blowing sex outside its usually hard to enjoy your husband or even respond to him anymore in bed. That's usually the problem. Take heart Dr sid
Hmmm!
Bad guy!!
