The put up, adorned with a photograph of the couple in an intimate second, has reignited discussions about their relationship, a pairing that has been surrounded by each hypothesis and controversy.

The backstory

Blessing CEO and IVD have been linked romantically since late 2022, shortly after the tragic demise of IVD’s spouse, Bimbo Ogbonna, in October of that 12 months. 

Bimbo’s demise adopted a violent home incident that shocked Nigerians and stirred widespread debate about poisonous relationships and home abuse. 

On the time, IVD was accused by Bimbo’s household of long-standing abuse, and he was taken into police custody pending investigations.

In a shocking twist, Blessing CEO publicly got here to IVD’s protection, asserting his innocence and claiming that Bimbo had psychological well being challenges. 

She even took to Instagram Reside to share alleged voice notes and chats between the couple, an motion that drew heavy backlash and led to her temporary arrest in March 2023 by the Nigerian Police Power for cyberbullying and libel towards Bimbo’s household.

Regardless of the controversy, Blessing CEO insisted her intentions have been pure and that she was talking out as a relationship professional involved concerning the details. 

Whereas she denied being romantically concerned with IVD on the time, many speculated that the 2 have been already extra than simply mates.

What may this imply for her

Her engagement to IVD, whom she as soon as known as misunderstood, might increase questions amongst her viewers, notably ladies who’ve adopted her for recommendation on navigating emotionally wholesome relationships.

Nonetheless, with this new chapter, she seems able to step away from noise into what she calls “peace.” Whether or not this union marks redemption, rise up, or redefinition is but to be seen.
