Nigerian fashion icon and designer, Denrele Edun has stated that he will not marry because he can’t get the same measure of love he gives to his partner.
Speaking to the Punch in an exclusive interview captured by Gistreel news, Denrele Edun pointed out that his se.xual life is very active, however, he is dating himself and he is not interested in marriage..

According to him, all he wants is be himself and bemoaned that he does not want to get married and still be unhappy.

He said;

“I am not interested in the institution called marriage. I can say this because I am in control of my decisions. I set my principles, follow my guiding philosophies and do only what I want to do. I have not been lucky with love. I give out a lot of love but I do not get the same measure back. It is very hard to find people who genuinely reciprocate the kind of love I give.

“I know people will question my sexuality because we live in a society where people are constantly under pressure and different forms of discrimination. Recently, I saw a story claiming that I was in a relationship with a male artiste but I don’t react to such claims anymore. I just want to be myself. I will not get married and still be unhappy. I am currently dating myself. My mother once bought me a diamond ring. She just wanted me to settle down. I have sacrificed a lot to take care of my family. I have been shouldering responsibilities since I was 11 years old.”
