I’ll take being a 2nd, 3rd or 5th Wife – Toke Makinwa

Nigerian media personality and actress, Toke Makinwa, has opened up about the current state of her love life, revealing that she’s at a stage where her options for marriage feel increasingly limited.

Speaking on the latest episode of her YouTube podcast, Toke Moments, the 40-year-old admitted she wouldn’t mind being a second, third, fourth, or even fifth wife if the opportunity arose.

While chatting with her guest, fashion designer Banke Kuku, Toke asked, “As independent women, do you think we’ve glamourised this whole idea of being independent?”

Banke responded, “Yeah. It’s tough.”

Toke then added candidly, “Let me break it down. Forget the cameras. At this point in my life, if I have the opportunity to be the second, third, fourth or fifth wife, I’ll take it.”

Explaining further, the actress shared how exhausting it can be to always take the lead in both her personal and professional life.

“I’m the boss everywhere, and that can be tiring,” she said. “Sometimes, I just want someone to lean on—someone who can decide what’s for dinner. Must it always be me?
