The media personality made the candid confession on a recent episode of *Toke Moments*, sharing how her perspective on marriage has evolved over time.

“In all honesty, at this point in my life, if I have the opportunity to be the second, third, fourth, or fifth wife, I will take it,” she said in a now-viral clip. Makinwa reflected on the emotional toll of being a high-achieving woman, expressing a desire for partnership that offers emotional support. “I am the boss everywhere and that could be tiring.

The response was swift. Shortly after the episode aired, Makinwa shared a screenshot from her Instagram inbox filled with marriage proposals from eager admirers. One notable message came from a senior data analyst based in Ibadan with the subject line: “GOAL: Can we get married?”

Her openness has ignited a wave of online conversation, drawing reactions ranging from lighthearted amusement to deep respect. Many praised her vulnerability and honesty about the challenges that come with independence and the modern dating landscape.
