Iyanya, a popular musician from Nigeria known for his hit song “Your Waist,” recently discussed his previous relationship with Yvonne Nelson, an actress and producer from Ghana, and called her “a sweet girl.”
Iyanya talked about the times they spent together in an interview on Starr Drive, confessing that he even got Yvonne’s name tattooed on his wrist to carry a piece of her wherever he went.
Iyanya still thinks fondly of her despite their relationship being tainted by allegations of infidelity, as described in Chapter 10 of Yvonne’s book “Iyanya and My Love Life,” where she shares the heartbreaking betrayal she experienced.
While Yvonne describes their relationship as a romantic one full of dreamy gestures like breakfast in bed. Especially after Iyanya permanently inked her initials, YN, on his wrist as a sign of their commitment, she had faith that their love would endure forever.
Iyanya expressed regret for focusing on lies rather than Yvonne during his appearance on Starr Drive with Foster Aggor. He acknowledged that they were soul mates, and the tattoo served as a visual reminder that he carried a piece of her with him wherever he went.
He stated, “If I was dating her, I would just focus on her. Back then, I used to lie to her because my career took priority. Everything else came second.”
Iyanya expressed his desire to sit down and speak with Yvonne “Yvonne is a sweet girl. I’m sure the book is doing well, obviously, because everybody is talking about it. I don’t really feel good that I have to sit down on radio and talk about it because it’s very emotional. I wish I and Yvonne Nelson could sit down and talk about it.”
He added that “I also feel like at the end of the day she is healing. Let’s not forget that too whatever it is. But what we all need to understand is that everybody has been through ups and downs and being famous comes with the territory.”
