Celebrity designer Veekee James has defended her habit of attending events with her husband, Femi Atere, after a social media user questioned why the couple are often seen together.
Speaking in a Snapchat video, Veekee said she and her husband had built a marriage centred on companionship and shared experiences, stressing that they prefer doing life together.
Reacting to claims that her husband lacked “a life of his own,” she maintained that marriage is about unity and mutual support, adding that both partners are deeply involved in each other’s lives.
The fashion entrepreneur also criticised people who view marriage as a relationship where couples live separate lives, insisting that she and her husband are comfortable with the closeness they share.
Veekee further stated that public opinions would not affect their lifestyle, noting that they would continue appearing together at social gatherings and events.
She wrapped up her response humorously by describing her husband as her “personal handbag,” while sharing moments from their outings together.
