Love is a gift from heaven. Timi Dakolo wife Busola and the singer himself know this perfectly well. The R&B singer has three beautiful children with his beloved woman. He is proud of his family. Nigerians admire this beautiful couple and their kids when they were featured in the music video "Iyawo Mi". From this article, you’ll find out how Timi met his love and some details of their personal life.
How did they meet?
It happened at the House on the Rock church. Timi Dakolo was only focused on his own business and when he met Busola. He spotted the beautiful lady among the congregation. He could not let her pass him by so he made sure to strike a conversation. He asked her what she was doing in the church. The first meeting was quite amusing. Timi introduced himself, and the girl asked: "So what?". Quite a normal reaction to a stranger trying to pick you up.
The singer asked for her phone number which she gave, but it turned out to be a fake. However, Timi did not despair and decided to find this beauty at all costs whenever he came to church every Sunday. One day, he finally found her and she make excuses for the wrong number. Then they began to communicate normally. Busola perceived him as a player who simply enjoyed picking up girls.
After the service, Timi offered her a ride home to know exactly where she lived. Then he began to visit her from time to time. Over time, Busola began to understand that this man is exceptional, and is exactly who she needs.
Proposal
One day in 2012, Timi came to visit his beloved and put a ring on an empty plate. That was what he served instead of breakfast in bed, which he had promised to bring Busola. Of course, he was worried about of a possible refusal, but he knew that it was the right time for the proposal.
So Timi brought a covered plate to the room and stood silently for a while, gathering his thoughts. The woman was expecting pasta, but under the napkin was a ring that incredibly surprised and pleased her!
Family life
Then the couple got married and created their cozy family nest. Children began to arrive and now, the couple has three kids (1 boy and 2 girls). All of them were born in just 4 years! Their father was always present at their births. He was the first one to hold his youngest daughter. The couple has disclosed that they do not plan to have any more children.
It is obvious that this family knows how to share good times and memories together. They love having fun and enjoying time with one another. Timi looks to be a reliable father and husband, who protects his children and wife from any issues. He considers himself more responsible now than he was when he was single Of course, there are ups and downs to any marriage but the couple seem to be managing just fine.

Timi Dakolo and his little princesses
The star family is no different from any other. Here are a few things you might not know about them.
- Busola says her husband is a very decent and God fearing man. They pray together. When Timi has an inspiration for a new song, he consults with wife. And this makes her very happy.
- Despite the fact that the he is very famous, Timi is a very humble man. He never acts with pride or arrogance.
- Speaking about his wife, the singer talks about her beauty and notes that most men don't simply get married because their partner is prayerful. But being a good Christian is important to him. The fact that Busola attended church made a good impression on him at the beginning of their relationship.
The couple has a bit of a grudge against each other. Busola Dakolo says that her husband talks a lot with her on the phone. She added that she would prefer it if they spent more time together in real life.
Timi, in turn, says that his wife takes too long to prepare whenever they have to go somewhere. Her make-up can be done faster, he said. Well, we're sure most men say that about their wives.
When it comes to matters of money, Timi Dakolo and wife trust each other completely and do not feel the need to show proof of how they are spending money. They do not have a joint account, but there is a monthly budget. If necessary, they support each other, but basically, everyone spends his own money on whatever individual or family needs exist.
This is how Timi describes the family life:
" These are two separate individuals forming an alliance to spend the rest of their life together. This sounds quite risky and significant, but in the end there is mutual respect, support, maturity, if you build a family correctly. After a show, I have to share my income and will be left with only a small part, because I'm responsible for my children. But their smiles are worth it."
Despite the fact that the life of the singer is full of temptation, Timi prefers to spend time at home with his family, watching football, writing music. He does not want to join the long list of scandalous celebrities. Instead of talking to journalists, Dakolo is more focused about paying for school and buying clothes for his children.
Timi says that not a lot of people understand him. Before meeting Busola, he prayed to God for a woman who would share his views on life. Even Dakolo’s music has changed since his beloved came into his life. When the singer is in a bad mood, he is unable to create new songs. So he needs to make sure there's peace in his home so he can do his work. Busola is very understanding, supportive, and when necessary, gives him his space to work.
Let's wish this family long and happy years of living together, and separately to the singer - inspiration for new and beautiful songs!
