Veteran Yoruba actor Yinka Quadri has recounted how his wife, Sadiat Adenike Quadri, maintained cordial relationships with some actresses he was dating, despite knowing about the relationships.

Quadri made the revelation in a recent interview with African A-List, describing how some of his female colleagues would approach his wife to discuss his relationships with other actresses, including women they were reportedly involved with themselves.

According to the actor, his wife was already aware of the relationships and did not confront the women who visited her to discuss them.
He said some actresses became friends with his wife and occasionally shared information about his romantic relationships, unaware that she already knew about them.
