Israel DMW, the associate of renowned singer Davido, has recently shed light on the reasons behind his marital separation. In a comprehensive narrative, he discloses the intricate details of his initial encounter with his now-estranged wife, Sheila, and the subsequent challenges that led to their split. Speculation about their separation had surfaced following a message posted by Sheila on their anniversary a few weeks prior.
Israel begins his account by revealing that he first met Sheila in February 2022 during one of their evangelism sessions at their church. At the time, she was a virgin and the daughter of a pastor. Their relationship progressed from friendship to intimacy, with Sheila expressing her commitment to only consummating the relationship within the bounds of marriage.
Undeterred, Israel proposed to her and embarked on a journey to enhance her lifestyle. He upgraded her possessions, from replacing her modest phone with a high-end iPhone worth a million naira to investing in an extravagant wardrobe and expensive human hair. Despite the considerable financial investment, Israel contends that Sheila’s attitude shifted after their opulent wedding.
Post-marriage, Sheila allegedly began imposing stringent standards on Israel and criticized him for what she perceived as embarrassing behavior online—specifically, his appeals and deferential attitude towards Davido. Israel maintains that he has never been physically abusive towards Sheila and emphasizes his respect for women. He asserts that he financially supported her with a minimum monthly allowance of 100k.
The turning point occurred when Sheila started associating Israel’s online interactions with Davido as a source of disgrace, accusing him of being subservient and bringing shame to her on social media. Israel refutes these claims and highlights the moment when Davido generously contributed to their wedding by providing financial support and even canceling a lucrative show appearance to attend the ceremony in Benin City.
In essence, Israel’s detailed account unveils the complexities of a relationship that started with promise but eventually succumbed to misunderstandings and changing dynamics, leading to their separation.
