He said:
“There is no good marriage that ends up in divorce, so we have a good marriage, so there is nothing; it’s impossible.”
Elsie concurred by saying she likes her husband too much to divorce him. Basketmouth also stated that the first five years of their marriage were better than other marriages he has seen.
The clip, which emerged after Basketmouth announced the end of his 12-year marriage, has generated huge reactions from Nigerians on social media.

“Keep your relationship away from social media. Celebrities and their frequent divorce now make marriage look bad. Your marriage will work and God will bless your home. Don’t let anyone scare you.”
