Divine Osunbor - Rema
International award-winning Nigerian Afrobeats singer, Rema has revealed that he ended his last relationship because it became manipulative and brought too much pressure to his life.
During a detailed interview on YouTuber Korty EO’s show, the “Calm Down” crooner opened up about the heavy expectations of his career and why he had to walk away from his ex-partner.
Key Details from Rema’s Disclosure
The Core Conflict:
Rema described the relationship as “beautiful” but noted it became heavily manipulative.
The Safe Space Disruption:
He explained that since the public and the music industry already subject him to intense scrutiny, he expects his home to be a sanctuary. Coming back to a chaotic environment with added domestic pressure made it unsustainable.
Intimacy Boundaries:
In the same media circuit, Rema said he goes months without physical intimacy when he needs to maintain intense focus on his musical craft.
Dating Preferences:
Following these experiences, the artist said that he prefers a private lifestyle and is drawn to women with a low social media presence (e.g., small or private accounts) to protect trust and confidentiality.
Rema concluded by stating firmly, “For now, I’m done,” signaling that he is stepping away from the dating scene to protect his mental health and creative energy.
