Incarcerated Dancehall artiste Vybz Kartel is engaged to longtime girlfriend Sidem Ozturk.
The proposal took place during the summer of 2022 at an authorised prison visit, where Vybz Kartel serves a life sentence for the murder of Clive “Lizard” Williams.
Ozturk lovingly recounted the memory of her engagement in an exclusive interview with Fox News.
Sidem Ozturk is a psychology student who was employed in London, England as a social worker. However she has given up on that career path and moved to Kingston, Jamaica to be closer to the Jamaican entertainer.
Ozturk gushes about her fiance, who’s given name is Adidja Palmer, saying his good heart is what attracted her to him throughout the relationship. Despite challenges the couple face due to Kartel’s status as an inmate Ozturk is not discouraged.
“Of course it does cause some difficulties, I can’t see him when I want to see him or I can’t talk to him when I want to talk to him but when you know what you want and where your heart is it is not that difficult. So, I am willing to wait.”
She is the muse for the artiste’s upcoming EP “True Religion” that is scheduled to be released on September 30, 2022.
