It would have been disappointing if
drama did not follow her death. Goldie, the unpredictable Goldie is pulling
surprises even in death.
Just
last night, a man believed to be her husband emerged, posting intimate pictures
on Facebook, sharing same on her twitter handle, and engaging with several
curious fans (he even issued a warning to Prezzo, the man many of us have come
to know as the late singer’s bonafide partner).
There
were rumours she may have been married or involved with an expatriate, but no
one could confirm during her lifetime. But what was hidden for years tore the
lid and came out last night, with the startling revelation by the man whose
name is Andrew Harvey.
While
still mourning his wife and preparing to come to Lagos, he was kind enough to
speak exclusively with Nigerian Entertainment Today…
So
sorry about your loss. And so sorry to be contacting you under this circumstance.
Nigerians are shocked to discover, through your FB post, that Goldie was
married. I’m wondering if you’ll able to give me more details, and if we can
have your permission to print some of the photos in the folder ‘Memories of my
darling wife’?
You may print the photos, as for the
details it really depends on what it is you’re looking for
Thanks
Andrew. Just to clarify a few things
Like?
When
did you wed her? And were you still married as at when she passed yesterday?
We wed in December 2005 and were very
much married when she passed indeed I was talking to her on arrival in Lagos
before the fateful event
I see
you moved back to England. Do you have another family?
I work in Malaysia, we have a private
home in UK, I do not have a second family
Also
did you have kids together?
No kids, we were planning this year
There
had been speculation for many years that she was married to an ‘oyinbo’ man.
But no one could lay hands on anything. Why did you keep it a ‘secret’?
Our private life is nothing to do with
work life, there has to be a balance
How
did you hear of her death? I found out you last saw her in December?
I was talking to her on arrival in
Lagos before the fateful event
How
did you meet her? She must have been very young…
I met her at a friend’s leaving party
and fell in love straight away, but had to work hard to persuade her I was
genuine
So
you will be planning to come here for burial rites…
Yes I have applied for visa and shall
come next week
But
how did you manage the Prezzo drama?
Prezzo was part of BBA game, just
like in the movies, there was nothing to fear
But
funny it dragged way beyond BBA
It dragged because the media dragged it, other wise it would have
died naturally. Prezzo will say anything to get attention
Do
you think he fell in love? And did you ever think Susan liked him for a
minute…?
People fall in love and it’s not
impossible to love more than one person, but there are different levels. She
liked him initially, but began to despise him and distanced herself as he tried
to use her she complained he was very manipulative
How
did you come about your alias ‘Oyibopeppay?
Oyiiibopeppay is a name used in the
villages for white man getting burned in the sun. I used to work in the bush
erecting BTS for MTN and Glo
You
have direct access to her password? The memories album was posted on her twitter.
Or you requested for an admin to post?
I am an official admin. I don’t need
any password but my own. It was authorised by Goldie
One
last question: so much speculation on cause of death. I see from your facebook
timeline that you’ve followed the reports. Have the doctors/family/label told
you what the cause of death is?
An autopsy is being carried out and
we will await results. The rest is speculation and hearsay
And
did she have any medical condition?
She had no medical condition,
Is it
true she was in India recently?
She was in Malaysia, we spent
Christmas together away from prying eyes
What
will you miss most about her?
Everything, she was the most
beautiful person I ever met, no moment was wasted. Sweet, intelligent, sexy and
a magnificent cook!!!!
And
she was a determined young lady…
Very. That’s what I liked about her
Are
you originally from England? Was she officially a citizen of your country by
marriage? Or that was not concluded?
I’m from England and was processing
Nigerian citizenship before I was transferred to Malaysia. Of course she was
citizen of UK before we met, she lived and schooled there
She
was indeed a star, as I’m sure you’ve seen from the tributes coming from far
and near. Even the BBC and Billboard recognise her star
Yes we saw it on BBC news tonight. It
is a devastating loss, but I support just as much wherever she has gone to.
May
her soul rest in peace
Thank you.
