- Famous fashion designer and social media influencer Veekee James discusses the strict rules in her marriage.
- She said her husband, Femi Atere, is not allowed to have a female best friend.
- Veekee describes this rule as non-negotiable.
Celebrity fashion designer and social media influencer Veekee James recently opened up about a strict rule in her marriage that she says is non-negotiable.
Speaking on the YouTube show Off the Top hosted by media personality VJ Adams, Veekee revealed that she does not allow her husband Femi Atere to have a female best friend.
She explained that her stance was not motivated by jealousy or insecurity, but rather because she believed that a wife should naturally be her husband’s closest confidante.
Vicki clarified that she has no problem with other men, including her own brother, having female best friends. However, she draws a firm line when it comes to marriage.
“As a woman, I am my husband’s only female best friend. That’s the way it should be.” she said, adding humorously that even her imaginary self was not allowed to occupy that position in Fermi’s life.
When VJ Adams asked if her rules would change if a female friend got married, Veekee stood her ground, insisting that a married woman’s closest female confidant should be her own husband, not another man.
Her comments quickly sparked discussion online, with many debating whether emotional exclusivity is crucial in a marriage or whether her approach might be considered too rigid.

@herroyalty_mabel: “But why does my man want to find a female best friend? How about that? If I’m not good enough to be your bestie and man at heart, then go hang out with your so-called besties.”
@hrhsimiarinola: “I love it when she looks into the camera and says “a man can have a female best friend, but not her man”…yes please”
@esin_approved: “My own thoughts are: When will her husband ever compliment her at least once? This guy never once. Come on, she is the husband and he is the wife. Come on, she married her and he agreed. There is no point in that anymore. I pray this marriage ends…because oh my God, if that happens, she will hear it from a Nigerian.”
@flakym: “You’re so right..let everyone find her best friend walking in front. Na go from clapping E dey into dancing”
