Nigerian songstress, Simisola Kosoko simply known as Simi has shared how her husband, Adekunle Gold, proposed to her.
Appearing as a guest on the “OFFTHETOP” show anchored by media personality, VJ Adams, Simi disclosed that Adekunle Gold proposed just 10 days before her 30th birthday, and it was a big surprise for her, despite being someone who is usually hard to surprise.
Recalling the proposal on that special day, Simi shared that she and Adekunle Gold had just come from a friend’s mother’s birthday party, so she was already dressed up in a cute gown and high heels, quite different from her usual tee and jeans look.
However, when they returned home, she was exhausted, but her husband, Adekunle Gold, informed her that his uncle was having dinner at the Eko Hotel and insisted that she accompany him.
Simi further explained that she couldn’t pass up the opportunity to meet her husband’s family, not knowing that Adekunle Gold was planning to propose. She mentioned that she rarely wears makeup, but on this particular day, she had some on due to their earlier outing, which Adekunle cleverly used to his advantage.
When they arrived at the hotel, she had already switched to slippers, but Adekunle insisted she put her heels back on before they headed to what she thought was a meeting with her future in-laws.
As they approached the door, Simi noticed candles at the entrance and thought it was a sweet gesture from Adekunle Gold’s family, still unaware of the proposal.
When she opened the door, she was greeted by balloons, candles, and flowers. At that moment, Adekunle Gold got down on one knee and asked her to marry him. Caught by surprise, she immediately said, “Yes.”
The couple have been married for five years and are blessed with a child, Adejare.
