Nigerian music icon Davido has given fans a rare peek into his marriage with his wife, Chioma Adeleke, revealing that their journey together began long before they officially said, “I do.” Eyes Of Lagos reports,
In a recent interview on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, the Afrobeats superstar shared that he and Chioma had been living together for eight years before making things official. According to him, their deep-rooted bond made the transition into marriage feel natural—yet still brought its own unique challenges.
“We Lived Together for 8 Years Before Marriage”
Davido, who met Chioma during his university days, reflected on how their love story evolved over time.
“My partner and I have been living together for a long time prior to getting married. I met her in my third year in college, and I was lucky enough for us to move in together early—about eight years before we got married.”
While their strong foundation made marriage an easy step, the award-winning singer admitted that being legally bound as husband and wife feels very different from just cohabiting.
“The transition was smooth, but it’s different; getting married is no joke,” he confessed.
Chioma’s Unwavering Support for Davido’s Career
The Unavailable hitmaker also took a moment to praise Chioma for her understanding nature, especially given his high-energy career that often keeps him on the road.
“Throughout the time we were living together, I was touring and really on the road. She always understood what I did for work, and she knows I’m at my happiest when I work. She knows I love music as she loves being in the kitchen.”
Chioma’s unwavering support has clearly played a key role in Davido’s success, proving that behind every great man is a great woman!
Love, Growth, and the Reality of Marriage
Davido’s insight is a reminder that even the strongest relationships evolve once marriage enters the picture. Love, understanding, and mutual support are key—whether you’ve lived together for years or just tied the knot.
One thing is clear: Davido and Chioma’s love story is one for the books! ❤️🔥
