Lege Miami Sparks Outrage with Controversial Take on Infidelity in Marriage

Controversial Nollywood actor and self-proclaimed relationship coach, Adams Kehinde, popularly known as Lege Miami, has stirred up a storm on social media following his latest remarks on gender roles and infidelity in marriage.

In a now-viral Instagram video, Lege boldly asserted that men are entitled to cheat in marriage, but women are not, adding that any woman who disagrees is “not ready for marriage.”

“Your husband can cheat, but as a woman, you don’t have the right to cheat. If you want to be a good and responsible wife, tolerate your cheating husband,” he said.

He didn’t stop there. He went on to claim that any married woman who locks her phone with a password is a “prostitute,” urging women to be fully transparent while excusing men who do the opposite.

“Do you want to argue that because your husband’s phone has a password, you should also do the same? You can pack your load and leave the house,” Lege added.

🔥 Backlash and Reactions

As expected, Lege’s comments have triggered a massive backlash online, with many Nigerians calling out the double standards and misogyny in his statements.

Critics slammed his views as toxic, outdated, and deeply unfair, arguing that relationships should be built on mutual respect, accountability, and equality — not skewed rules that give one partner a pass while policing the other.

💬 Opinion: A 'Coach' Out of Touch?

In a society increasingly pushing for gender equity and healthy relationship dynamics, Lege Miami’s remarks come across as tone-deaf and regressive.

It is deeply troubling for someone who labels himself a “relationship expert” to promote unequal standards that normalize betrayal from one side and condemn it on the other. Infidelity should never be gendered — it’s a betrayal regardless of who commits it.

True partnership demands transparency, loyalty, and communication — not power games rooted in patriarchy. If we are to raise a generation that values commitment, love, and honesty, such one-sided ideologies must be challenged and unlearned.

Lege Miami might have set out to spark conversation, but in doing so, he’s reminded us just how much work is still needed to undo toxic mindsets around love, gender, and relationships.

What’s your take — can love and trust survive with such double standards? Or is it time we all agreed that cheating, no matter who does it, is wrong?
