How my husband, Mr Eazi sent an email expressing his anger at me while we were seated together — Temi Otedola
The wife of music executive Oluwatosin ‘Mr Eazi’ Ajibade, Temi Otedola Ajibade, has shared insights into how they handle communication during conflicts in their relationship.
Speaking on a recent episode of their podcast, Temi revealed that her husband often chooses to express his feelings through written messages, even when they are physically together.
She recounted an instance where Mr Eazi sent her a lengthy email explaining his grievances while they were both in the same apartment, a situation she found frustrating after repeatedly asking if anything was wrong.
“Now, I think he is working on it. The way I found out that Tosin was angry with me on a Monday was that he sent me this long message. Bear it in mind that we are sitting in the same flat. And me, minding my business, responding to my mails, and I got a message saying everything he was upset about me for,” she said.
“While I was reading it, my body was already becoming hot. At some point, I couldn’t even read it because I was so angry.
“Imagine I have asked this guy 10 times: “Are you upset with me?” I was hot. Honestly, if you are in the same situation, I think it is childish not to go up and speak to them. Right now, that is what you are comfortable with. You find it easier to express yourself by typing. At least, you are getting out. But it will be nice if you express it to me.”
Responding, Mr Eazi explained that writing helps him communicate sensitive emotions more carefully without sounding harsh.
“I would prefer to do that. I see that sometimes when we sit down to talk, I do not hit the nail on the head. Because at the same time, I do not want to sound harsh. I do not want to because I am such a nice person,” he said.
“I think it is important for people to find the best way to communicate. For me, it is writing. When I want to be stone-cold, I can do it, so I can read it again to see what I have repeated.”
The couple began their relationship in 2017, got engaged in April 2023, and later held a multi-location wedding ceremony across Monaco, Dubai, and Iceland.
