Blessing CEO (real name Blessing Okoro), a well-known and often controversial Nigerian relationship therapist and social media figure, has once again sparked public interest with remarks about her relationship with businessman Ikechukwu Ogbonna, popularly known as IVD. In a recent revelation, she shared that being with IVD has “brought out her inner child,” describing a sense of emotional joy, playfulness, and fulfillment in the relationship.
This statement has drawn attention due to the complex and contentious history surrounding the couple. IVD was previously involved in a widely publicized scandal following the tragic death of his wife, Bimbo Ogbonna. During that period, Blessing CEO openly defended him, even claiming to possess exonerating evidence—actions that resulted in significant public criticism and a brief arrest in 2023.
Her new comments mark a noticeable shift in tone—from defending IVD to expressing more personal and emotional sentiments. Referring to her “inner child” indicates she feels at ease, safe, and genuinely happy in his presence—feelings often linked to deep emotional connection.
Public opinion on their relationship remains divided. While some continue to question the ethics and timing of their romance, others argue that both individuals are entitled to find love and healing in their own way.
