Nigerian music producer Samklef has opened up about his previous affections for singer Simi, admitting why he never asked her out despite having deep emotions for her.

In a recent social media post, Samklef admitted that he considered asking Simi out when she was going through a breakup with her ex-boyfriend, Lekan, but opted against it to retain a professional connection and prevent jeopardising their working dynamic.

Samklef also said that, despite his friendly gestures to Simi, her family mistreated him, leaving him with a bad taste in his mouth. However, he has forgiven them and moved on.
Simi is now happily married to her colleague, Adekunle Gold, and they share a beautiful daughter named Adejare.
Samklef’s candid revelation has sparked a conversation about unrequited love, professionalism, and the complexities of relationships in the entertainment industry.
In his words: “I ❤️ SIMI. I almost ask her out o! When she break up with her ex lekan for experience that year But I had to keep it professional make e for no spoil business…Adekunle help me greet your wife for me. Life is it not that deep. 😂
