Celebrity fashion designer, Veekee James has revealed how she once asked her husband, Femi Atere, to stay with her in the bathroom while she defecated as a way of testing his love for her.
The designer made the revelation while responding to a question about the most dramatic thing she had done in her marriage, describing herself as a “drama queen” who takes intimacy with her partner seriously.
In a video circulating on X on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, Veekee explained that the unusual request was deliberate, as she wanted to establish the depth of her husband’s affection for her.
According to her, she was serious about the demand, believing that genuine love should go beyond romantic gestures and extend to accepting a partner in their most unglamorous moments.
“I am a drama queen. I would say asking my husband to stay with me while I am doing number 2 to prove that he loves me. I was very serious about it. If you aren’t acquainted with my fragrance, how can you prove that you are the love of my life? You know that kind of thing. I think that’s the most dramatic thing,” she said.
Veekee, who is known for her work in Nigeria’s fashion industry and her public displays of affection with Atere, said the experience reflected her personal expectations of intimacy and commitment in marriage.
Her disclosure has drawn attention online, with the unconventional test highlighting the humorous and unusual ways some couples seek reassurance in their relationships.
The designer has previously spoken publicly about her marriage and personal experiences.
She also recently criticised Lagos party bloggers over what she described as intrusive filming at social events, warning against the violation of celebrities’ privacy.
