Nigerian record producer, audio engineer, record executive, singer, songwriter, entrepreneur and philanthropist, Michael Collins Ajereh, that goes by the professionally name, Don Jazzy has revealed a part of his life that his fans have been waiting so much to hear about; how love life.
Taking to his social media page, the founder and the CEO of Mavin Records revealed he was married to his “best friend” about 18 years ago.
Disclosing the name of his former wife as Michelle with the username @yarnstaswitch on instagram, Don Jazzy said the marriage failed because he wasn’t really ready for the marriage as he was engulfed by his pursuit of his musical dreams.
He said he felt the revelation became necessary after watching his ‘bounce interview’ with Ebuka which is almost like a tell all interview and he skipped that important part of his life.
He wrote:
“For so long everyone keeps asking me when am I getting married?
“Well truth is almost 18 years ago I was 20 and I got married to my best friend Michelle @yarnstaswitch and it was beautiful.
“I loved love and I loved marriage. Michelle is soooo beautiful inside and outside with such a soft heart.
“But then me being so young and full of dreams I went and fucked it up cos I was giving all my time to my Music.
“Music became priority instead of my family. We got divorced when I was 22 and it hurt. I am still very much in love with my music and I wouldn’t want to marry another and fuck it up again. So I’m taking my time.
“Why am I just saying this now?? I really like to keep my relationships private actually. Past or present. But I was watching the bounce interview with Ebuka which is almost like a tell all interview, and I felt bad skipping this huge part of my life. So yeah make una no vex o.”
