I was married at 20, divorced at 22 – Don Jazzy

Mavin Records head honcho, Don Jazzy, has for the first time ever opened up about his love life on his official Instagram handle.

Don Jazzy, whose real name is Micheal Akereh, has revealed that he was married to UK-based model and writer, Michelle Jackson, almost 18 years ago.

The marriage, he said, was however shortlived as they parted ways two years after.

The 38-year-old star producer’s revelation comes on the heels of a tell-all interview he granted Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on his show- BlackBox series.

During the interview, with Ebuka, he spoke about his new home, rumours that he was broke, growing up in Ajegunle and also revealed that dancehall star, Daddy Showkey, is his relative.

Revealing why the marriage didn’t work out, he said it was because he made music priority instead of his family.

“I loved love and I loved marriage. Michelle is soooo beautiful inside and outside with such a soft heart. But then me being so young and full of dreams I went and f**ked it up cos I was giving all my time to my Music. Music became priority instead of my family.

“We got divorced when I was 22 and it hurt. I am still very much in love with my music and I wouldn’t want to marry another and f**k it up again. So I’m taking my time,” he wrote on his the Instagram post.

As one of Nigeria’s most eligible bachelors, Don Jazzy has never been one to divulge any information about his love life.
