Why I can never trust my mother with a secret – Tiwa Savage

Famous songstress, Tiwa Savage opens up on why she made a firm decision not to share any secret with her mother in the future.

In a recent interview with MTV UK, the single mom of one highlighted her experience following the announcement of her show at the coronation of King Charles III.

Tiwa Savage revealed that she confided in her mum and explicitly asked her not to share the news with anyone. However, her mother divulged the information to her brother in under 20 minutes.

She further emphasized how she initially underestimated the significance of performing at the King’s coronation.

In her words;

“When I got the call about performing at the King’s coronation, I didn’t tell a lot of people at first. But eventually, I told my mum and as always I was like, Mum, please don’t tell anyone. Then literally 20 minutes later, my brother is calling me, he was like, ‘Oh my gush!’ And I’m like, mum, wow! So, I’m not telling my mum anything again.

“Initially, I didn’t realize how big a deal it [performing at the King’s coronation] was. And I also didn’t know who else was going to be performing either. So, I didn’t know I was going to be the only one representing the Commonwealth. So, when I started getting that information, I was like, ‘Wow! No pressure.’ It was great though.

“Like I said, to represent the Commonwealth, and just looking back at the performance. It was iconic. It was such a great experience for me.”
