A recent video of Veekee James’s husband, Femi, surprising her with flowers on stage while she was hosting an event sparked both admiration and controversy. Amid the comments, @mrtuscan chimed in mockingly, “She doesn’t even look surprised; she probably bought the flowers herself.” This remark, aimed at undermining Femi due to Veekee’s higher earnings, highlights a troubling view on relationships and financial status.
Why should gestures of love be measured by who pays for them? Such comments suggest that a partner’s worth depends on their income rather than their support and care. True relationships are built on genuine affection and mutual respect—not on financial comparisons. Acts of love, whether big or small, deserve to be celebrated for the thought and sincerity behind them, not dismissed based on who earns more.
