Nigerian singer Rema has opened up about why he ended his relationship with his former girlfriend, saying the experience became emotionally draining and difficult to manage.
He shared this during a recent interview with YouTuber Korty EO, where he spoke honestly about his personal life and relationships.
Rema explained that the relationship started off well and had many good moments, but it also came with constant emotional pressure that made things unhealthy over time.
According to him, one of the biggest challenges was that he often returned home hoping to relax after dealing with stress from fame and work, but instead faced more tension in his personal space.
He said this situation made it hard for him to find peace, especially when he needed rest and emotional balance the most.
The singer added that things eventually became overwhelming, and he had to step away when he could no longer cope with the emotional strain.
“In my relationship, it was beautiful at the beginning, but it became very manipulative and stressful at times,” he said.
He explained that while the outside world already places pressure on him as an artist, he expected home to be a place of comfort rather than additional stress.
“When you come back home and instead of peace you get more pressure, it changes everything,” he added, noting that he eventually chose to walk away for his own well-being.
