Socialite Yhemolee has broken his silence regarding serious allegations that his wife, Thaylor B, and her associates physically assaulted businesswoman Queen Akeredolu over suspected romantic involvement with him.
The controversy emerged earlier this week when popular blogger Cutie Julls brought the allegations to public attention, sparking widespread discussion across social media platforms.
According to a formal press statement released on Wednesday, interior decorator Queen Akeredolu detailed a disturbing account of events that allegedly occurred on Saturday, September 6. Akeredolu claims she was deceived into meeting at a Lekki address under the pretence of discussing a follow-up business project with Thaylor B, with whom she had previously collaborated in June.
The businesswoman alleges that upon arrival, she was confronted by Thaylor B, her sister, and three other women identified as Tiwa, Treasure, and Funke. According to Akeredolu’s statement, the group accused her of having an extramarital affair with Yhemolee before launching a violent assault.
The alleged attack reportedly involved the use of belts and other objects, resulting in torn clothing and the destruction of valuable personal belongings, including an iPhone 16 Pro, designer wig, glasses, and various clothing items. Akeredolu has firmly denied any romantic involvement with the singer and confirmed that the matter has been handed over to her legal representatives and appropriate law enforcement authorities.
Yhemolee’s response to the allegations came on Thursday through his Snapchat account, where he adopted a seemingly dismissive tone. The entertainer shared a screenshot of a conversation with a friend who warned about the heated discussions in Cutie Julls’ comment section, writing, “If you enter Cutie Julls comment section, you go kpai person.”
In a follow-up post, Yhemolee appeared to find humor in the situation, simply stating, “Bro this is just too funny pls.” The nightlife personality also shared a video featuring himself and his wife enjoying an outing together, seemingly projecting an image of marital harmony despite the swirling controversy.
Additionally, Yhemolee posted a screenshot of a supportive message from a fan who praised his professional growth and resilience throughout his career. He captioned the post with pride, declaring, “Baba ni baba Amirion 9yrs career strong!”
This latest drama adds another layer to recent speculation about the couple’s relationship stability. Just weeks earlier, Yhemolee had sparked rumors of marital difficulties when he shared cryptic and seemingly troubled posts on social media. However, he later clarified that those messages were emotional reactions to Kemi Adetiba’s television series “To Kill A Monkey (TKAM)” rather than reflections of personal relationship issues.
The timing of these allegations is particularly notable, as they coincide closely with the couple’s first wedding anniversary. Yhemolee and Oyin Tayo, professionally known as Thaylor B, celebrated their marriage with a star-studded Lagos ceremony on September 6, 2024. The wedding was attended by numerous Nigerian entertainment industry figures, including renowned artists Timi Dakolo, Zlatan, Poco Lee, and Rahaman Jago.
The couple’s personal life took a joyful turn earlier this year when they welcomed their first child together, a baby boy, in January. This addition to their family had been celebrated by fans and the entertainment community, making the current allegations all the more shocking to observers.
The case highlights the complex intersection of celebrity life, social media dynamics, and legal accountability in Nigeria’s entertainment industry. As the matter now involves legal proceedings, it remains to be seen how the situation will develop and what impact it may have on all parties involved.
For now, Queen Akeredolu maintains her position as the alleged victim of a serious assault, while Yhemolee and his wife have yet to provide a comprehensive public response to the specific allegations beyond the singer’s brief social media posts.
