When contacted by Milele FM, Daddy Owen took the opportunity to address the circulating rumours and clarify the nature of his relationship with Charlene.
“Ah, what’s all this about? Bro, you know there are some things that shouldn’t be talked about. Some are serious, man… Let’s not go there. You’re my brother; I wouldn’t want to put you in a tough spot,” Daddy Owen said.
“No, it’s just work. Apart from being friends, we have many projects we’re working on together… It’s not necessary that every time you see me with someone, they have to be more than a friend,” he explained.
