Controversial Nigerian singer Portable and his girlfriend, Queen Dami, have been at the center of media attention once again following their recent reconciliation. The couple, who had been embroiled in a bitter fallout weeks earlier, seem to have patched things up, with Portable sharing a now-deleted video on his Instagram page capturing a loving moment between the two. However, despite the apparent peace, Queen Dami has made it clear that her return to him is conditional.
In the video, which has since been removed from Portable’s social media, the couple appeared to be back on good terms, with the singer expressing affection for Queen Dami. However, it wasn’t all love and sweetness, as Dami took the opportunity to deliver a stern message to Portable. She made it clear that her decision to stay with him is driven by financial motives. “I am only with you because of the money,” she bluntly told him. “The day you marry another woman after me, and I find out, I will leave you.”
Portable, who is known for his controversial statements, responded with a message to his followers in his Instagram caption. He shared his belief that “One man for all women, all women for one man,” and advised his male fans to focus on making money before searching for love. “Make money before you love,” he wrote, emphasizing his belief that financial success should come before romantic pursuits.
This latest chapter in their relationship follows a tumultuous period just weeks ago when the couple was embroiled in a public spat. Portable had accused Queen Dami of causing trouble at his bar by allegedly chasing away female patrons. He expressed his frustration, stating that Queen Dami was neither the first nor the last woman to enter his life. He also vented about how he is financially supporting her son, the child she had with the late Alaafin of Oyo, yet she allegedly does not appreciate his efforts.
In what seemed like a response to Portable’s accusations, Queen Dami took to social media to defend herself. “Unless you kill God, I am living in blessings that used to be prayer requests,” she boldly declared. Her statement suggested that despite the public drama, she feels blessed and unbothered by Portable’s rants. She also confidently stated, “I am her,” signifying her resolve and self-assurance.
Before their recent fallout, Portable had often praised Queen Dami for her loyalty, particularly in the face of public scrutiny. He even dismissed the idea that her inability to bear him a child was a sign of disloyalty. “People think she is disloyal because she hasn’t given birth to me, but they are wrong,” Portable stated at the time, expressing his admiration for her. The singer, who already has six children, also prayed for Queen Dami to become pregnant with his child, further deepening the complexity of their relationship.
Queen Dami’s relationship with Portable is not her first high-profile romance. Before getting involved with the singer, she was married to the late Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyeye. However, their marriage ended after Queen Dami allegedly broke a palace rule, which led to her fleeing the palace. She later attributed the incident to frustration and poor advice from friends, explaining that her departure was not an act of defiance but rather a response to the pressures she faced.
Unfortunately, Queen Dami’s relationship with the late monarch could never be repaired, as he passed away last year. The breakdown of their marriage, combined with the circumstances of his death, has added further layers of complexity to Queen Dami’s personal life. Despite this, her current relationship with Portable has brought her back into the public eye, with the couple’s ups and downs often making headlines.
