    In 2018, fans speculated that Segun got married to a second wife because he impregnated his first wife’s best friend. However, it was only a hollow rumor he came out to debunk immediately. During an interview, he revealed that the person behind the rumor was a lady he rejected to marry cause he didn’t want a second wife. He revealed that his wives didn’t know each other before he married them. But after he got Omowunmi pregnant, he was obliged to marry her, so the estranged lady whom Segun refused her proposal sparked a malicious statement about him.
