In confirmation of their relationship, Portable acknowledged his affair with Queen Dami, who was previously married to the late Alaafin of Oyo.
Celebrity blogger Gist Lover shared screenshots of their endearing comments, referring to each other as “My king and Queen” and using love emojis.
In an interview on the Honest Bunch Podcast, Portable clarified that he is not the father of Queen Dami’s child and that their relationship began after the death of her husband.
He emphasized that he never had affairs with married women before.
Queen Dami’s marriage to the late Alaafin ends
Queen Dami’s marriage to the late monarch came to an end due to her alleged violation of a palace rule.
Reports state that she was imprisoned for breaking the rule, which led her to leave the palace and relocate to Lagos in April 2021.
She later attributed her actions to frustration and wrong advice from friends. Unfortunately, her relationship with the king was never mended before his passing last year.
