My life was easier with multiple women – Akon
Senegalese-American singer Akon has stirred reactions after admitting that life felt easier when he was involved with multiple women.
The 53-year-old record producer made the revelation during an appearance on The Shade Room, where he reflected on his past relationships. According to him, his earlier romantic life was filled with excitement and ease—something he says is lacking in his current monogamous setup.
“My life was very much easier when I had multiple women surrounding me, but me being with just one woman isn’t just exciting,” he said.
When pressed about his current relationship status, the singer declined to go into details, joking, “I plead the fifth; it will be incriminating to answer.”
His comments come months after his wife, Tomeka Thiam, filed for divorce in September 2025, citing irreconcilable differences after 28 years of marriage.
