Yhemolee Responds to Allegations of Wife’s Assault on Businesswoman Singer and socialite Yhemolee has addressed claims that his wife, Thaylor B, and her friends attacked businesswoman and interior decorator Queen Akeredolu, accusing her of being romantically involved with him. The allegations, first reported by blogger Cutie Julls, state that Akeredolu was allegedly lured to a Lekki residence on Saturday, September 6, where she was confronted by Thaylor B, her sister, and three friends identified as Tiwa, Treasure, and Funke. According to Akeredolu, the women accused her of an affair with Yhemolee, physically assaulted her with belts and other objects, tore her clothes, and damaged her belongings, including an iPhone 16 Pro, wig, glasses, and clothing items. She added that she had previously collaborated with Thaylor B on a project in June and was invited for a follow-up job, which led her to the meeting. Akeredolu denied any romantic involvement with Yhemolee and stated that the matter is now in the hands of her lawyers and the “appropriate authorities.” In response, Yhemolee took to Snapchat on Thursday, sharing a screenshot of a friend’s message that read: “If you enter Cutie Julls comment section, you go kpai person.” He followed up with a lighthearted comment: “Bro this is just too funny pls 🤣🤣🤣.” The nightlife personality also shared a video of himself and his wife at an outing, along with a screenshot of a fan’s supportive message praising his growth and resilience. Yhemolee captioned the post: > “baba ni baba Amirion 💪🏽🙌🏾 9yrs career strong!” The incident comes weeks after Yhemolee fueled marital rumours with cryptic social media posts, which he later clarified were reactions to Kemi Adetiba’s series To Kill A Monkey (TKAM), not issues in his marriage.
