Nigerian socialite and nightlife personality, Pretty Mike, has stirred conversation online after urging young women to marry men who cannot bear to see them in pain, emphasizing kindness as a key quality to look for in a life partner.
In a message shared via his Instagram story on Friday, Pretty Mike reflected on the tragic case of a woman who reportedly died during childbirth after her husband refused to consent to a Cesarean Section (CS). According to reports, the man insisted on a natural birth due to cultural or religious beliefs, ultimately costing the woman her life.
The socialite used the incident to highlight the dangers of choosing partners who lack empathy, warning that some men are quick to move on after their partner’s death.
“As a lady, please marry a kind man that can’t stand seeing you in pain. If you die, these animals will move on in no time,” he wrote.
“Imagine a woman losing her life because her husband refused to sign CS consent just because he wants his wife to deliver like the Hebrew women.”
Pretty Mike, known for his controversial and often theatrical appearances at public events, has never shied away from provocative commentary. This time, however, his message struck a chord with many online, as it touches on a serious and all-too-common issue in maternal healthcare and relationship dynamics.
His comments have sparked debate about the role of male partners in critical medical decisions, especially during pregnancy, and the broader need for compassion, emotional intelligence, and supportiveness in relationships.
While Pretty Mike’s delivery may often be unconventional, his core message resonates: when it comes to choosing a life partner, kindness is not a luxury—it’s a necessity.
