"Chioma Opens Up About Facing Numerous Obstacles as Davido's Spouse"
Davido and Chioma Adeleke, the power couple of the Afrobeats industry, have navigated a journey marked by personal ambitions, public scrutiny, and steadfast mutual support. Their relationship, which began during their university days at Babcock University, has become a beacon of love and partnership.
The couple met in 2015, with Davido studying music and Chioma pursuing economics. Their romance remained private for a while, but in 2018, Davido made their relationship public through his song "Assurance," a heartfelt ode to his girlfriend. This marked the beginning of their journey in the public eye[1][3][4].
Their romance gained further attention when Davido introduced Chioma as his girlfriend in 2018 and later proposed to her in 2019 with a ring engraved "Assurance." However, their relationship was not without challenges. In 2021, rumors of infidelity swirled, and in 2022, their first son, Ifeanyi, tragically drowned[1].
Despite these difficulties, their bond remained strong. They legally married in March 2023, had a traditional wedding in Lagos in June 2024, and finally sealed their union with a lavish $3.7 million white wedding ceremony in Miami in August 2025[2][3][4][5]. This grand event underscored their unwavering support for each other, featuring heartfelt declarations, luxury gifts, and a gathering of family and VIP guests worldwide.
Throughout their relationship, Davido has been reported to be caring, intentional, and deeply invested in Chioma's growth beyond their family life. He has shown unwavering support for her personal ambitions, often asking about her dreams and making plans to achieve them[2]. For Chioma, Davido's most valuable gift is not luxury but his genuine commitment to helping her achieve her dreams.
The couple's journey has not been without its share of personal tragedies and public scrutiny. In October 2023, they welcomed twins, adding to their family. Yet, they continue to nurture both their family and individual goals, weathering the storms that have come their way[1][2][3][4][5].
Chioma, known as Chef Chi, is the wife of Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, also known as Davido. Together, they have built a life that is a testament to their love, resilience, and shared ambitions. Their story is one of love, loss, and the unwavering support that has seen them through the toughest of times.
