Andrew Harvey, Goldie's husband opens up to Thenetng.com Read interview below.
When did you wed her? And were you still married as at when
she passed yesterday?
We wed in December 2005 and were very much married when she
passed indeed I was talking to her on arrival in Lagos before the fateful event
I see you moved back to England. Do you have another family?
I work in Malaysia, we have a private home in UK, I do not
have a second family
Also did you have kids together?
No kids, we were planning this year
There had been speculation for many years that she was
married to an ‘oyinbo’ man. But no one could lay hands on anything. Why did you
keep it a ‘secret’?
Our private life is nothing to do with work life, there has
to be a balance
How did you hear of her death? I found out you last saw her
in December?
I was talking to her on arrival in Lagos before the fateful
event
How did you meet her? She must have been very young…
I met her at a friend’s leaving party and fell in love
straight away, but had to work hard to persuade her I was genuine.
So you will be planning to come here for burial rites…
Yes I have applied for visa and shall come next week
But how did you manage the Prezzo drama?
Prezzo was part of BBA game, just like in the movies, there
was nothing to fear
But funny it dragged way beyond BBA
It dragged because the media dragged it, other wise it would
have died naturally. Prezzo will say anything to get attention
Do you think he fell in love? And did you ever think Susan
liked him for a minute…?
People fall in love and it’s not impossible to love more
than one person, but there are different levels. She liked him initially, but
began to despise him and distanced herself as he tried to use her she complained
he was very manipulative
How did you come about your alias ‘Oyibopeppay?
Oyiiibopeppay is a name used in the villages for white man
getting burned in the sun. I used to work in the bush erecting BTS for MTN and
Glo
You have direct access to her password? The memories album
was posted on her twitter. Or you requested for an admin to post?
I am an official admin. I don’t need any password but my own.
It was authorised by Goldie
One last question: so much speculation on cause of death. I
see from your facebook timeline that you’ve followed the reports. Have the
doctors/family/label told you what the cause of death is?
An autopsy is being carried out and we will await results.
The rest is speculation and hearsay
And did she have any medical condition?
She had no medical condition,
Is it true she was in India recently?
She was in Malaysia, we spent Christmas together away from
prying eyes
What will you miss most about her?
Everything, she was the most beautiful person I ever met, no
moment was wasted. Sweet, intelligent, sexy and a magnificent cook!!!!
And she was a determined young lady…
Very. That’s what I liked about her
Are you originally from England? Was she officially a
citizen of your country by marriage? Or that was not concluded?
I’m from England and was processing Nigerian citizenship
before I was transferred to Malaysia. Of course she was citizen of UK before we
met, she lived and schooled there.
She was indeed a star, as I’m sure you’ve seen from the
tributes coming from far and near. Even the BBC and Billboard recognise her
star
Yes we saw it on BBC news tonight. It is a devastating loss,
but I support just as much wherever she has gone to.
May her soul rest in peace
