Some relationship experts have even alluded to the possibility of celebrities marrying themselves since they would better appreciate and understand themselves better but history and past precedence has revealed that this is not always the case as they seemed to even have more misunderstandings and end up filing for divorce at the end.
The prominent musical entertainer and crooner of the popular phrase ‘gbebodi eh’ Burna Boy have been reported to be the recent culprit involved in the cheating game. Trust Nigerian fans and gossip blogs to do the needful when a juicy story of this magnitude surfaces on social media.

No matter how we try to justify or embellish the revelations of the side chick, cheating is never a good feeling especially for the offended party because, it creates more suspicion and gives room for lack of trust in any relationship whatsoever. However the fact still remains a mystery as to whether this story was put out as a result of jealousy, a misunderstanding or just for the sake of the truth prompted by a scrupulous and guilt ridden conscience.
