Nigerian actress, Nkechi Blessing Sunday, was left in tears of joy after her boyfriend, Eseoghene Obire, popularly known as Xxssive, surprised her during her pop-up luxury beauty launch in Lagos on Monday.
The emotional moment unfolded as Xxssive, who resides in Delta State, appeared unannounced at the event.
Taken completely off guard, Nkechi fell to the ground in shock and joy. Onlookers quickly gathered to help her up, with many cheering on the couple.
To add to this exciting moment, a viral video circulating on social media shows a romantic proposal, leaving fans stunned and delighted.
The engagement comes on the heels of Blessing’s public plea to be left alone, as speculation about the state of her relationship with Xxssive reached a fever pitch.
Their public display of affection comes amid persistent breakup rumors surrounding the couple, who have been together since 2021 following Nkechi’s split from Ekiti State politician, Opeyemi Falegan.
In October, Nkechi dismissed rumours of a split, emphasizing that Instagram is not real life. “The last thing I lack in my life is love,” she boldly declared.
Despite fan speculations, Nkechi has stood firm, trading words with critics questioning her relationship status. She recently responded to a troll who mocked her relationship, calling the fan an “old witch.”
Last July, Nkechi hinted at being ready for marriage, inspired by the weddings of singer Davido and actress Sharon Ooja. She shared her excitement about love, calling it a “beautiful thing,” and even brainstormed potential hashtags for her future nuptials with Xxssive.
