Gospel musician Celestine Donkor has urged husbands to rethink the belief that marriage automatically guarantees sexual access to their wives. She stressed that intimacy is built through love, emotional connection, and genuine care.
The singer shared her thoughts in a video posted on her Instagram page, where she explained that a woman’s willingness to be intimate is often influenced by how she is treated within the marriage. According to her, affection and attention from a husband play a crucial role in strengthening the bond between couples.
“Dear husband, the fact that you’ve married a woman into your matrimonial home doesn’t mean that whenever you want sex anyhow, anytime, you will automatically get it regardless of how you treat the woman. A woman needs a lot of love, care, and attention to get her tissue wet. Sweet-talk your own wife. Show her love. Show her care,” she said.
Celestine Donkor advised husbands not to allow busy schedules and daily responsibilities to weaken communication with their spouses. She said simple acts such as checking in during the day and expressing affection can help keep the emotional connection alive.
“Don’t leave the house from morning till evening without calling your wife to check on her. Tell her you can’t wait to see her again. Put some words in her face,” she stated.
The gospel singer emphasised that marriage requires continuous effort, patience, and intentional nurturing. She likened a wife to a precious flower that must be handled with love and appreciation rather than taken for granted.

“That is why, when you are going to marry, they say you are going to your wife’s family to pluck a rose and treat that woman with love, patience, and a lot of attention,” the gospel singer indicated.
She further explained that asking for attention does not mean wives expect their husbands to abandon their responsibilities or remain at home all day. Instead, she said women want to feel remembered, appreciated, and emotionally connected even when their partners are away.
“When we say attention, we are not saying you should stay home and not work. We are saying that even when you are away from home, let your presence be felt by your wife,” she averred.
Celestine Donkor also cautioned husbands against assuming that a wife’s faith or commitment to marriage makes her immune to emotional struggles or relationship challenges.
She said men who neglect their wives because they believe a devoted Christian woman would never be unfaithful could be making a serious mistake.
“If you don’t, and you think that because you are married to a perfect Christian woman, she will never cheat on you, you are lying; she will cheat on you,” Celestine Donkor further stated.
