He is my personal handbag, Veekee James defends constant outings with husband

Celebrity fashion designer Veekee James has responded to online criticism regarding her frequent public appearances with her husband, Femi Atere. A social media user questioned why he accompanied her to events, suggesting he lacked a life of his own.

“

Yes, my husband does not have a life of his own. His life is my life, the same way I don’t have a life of my own. My life is his life. He is me and I am him. Together we are like padlock and key.

In a video shared on Snapchat, James defended their close bond, stating that marriage is about sharing life and that she and her husband have intentionally built their lives around each other. "Yes, my husband does not have a life of his own. His life is my life, the same way I don’t have a life of my own. My life is his life. He is me and I am him. Together we are like padlock and key," she explained.

James argued that critics misunderstand the essence of marriage, asserting that partners should share every aspect of their lives rather than live independently. "When you marry your own, separate him. When you marry your own, remove him from your life and keep him somewhere else. You don’t know what marriage is. His life is mine, my life is his. Everything he is, is mine," she stated.

She affirmed that she and her husband would continue to attend public events together, regardless of the criticism. "You’ve not seen anything. You will see me and my husband anywhere possible, everywhere possible, you will see us," James declared. She concluded the video humorously, referring to her husband as her "personal handbag" while showcasing clips of the couple together.
