Big Brother Naija’s former housemate, Maria Chike Benjamin, has melted hearts with lovely photos of her and her partner, Kelvin.
Taking to her Instagram story, Maria shared photos of herself and her man as they attended Obi Cubana’s 50th birthday celebration. Quoting Jay Z, Maria said if it wasn’t for the pictures, people wouldn’t see her at all.
“If it wasn’t for these pictures, they wouldn’t see me at all – Jay Z.
Last night outside, celebrating a legend,, @obi_cubana, for his blessed 50th year on Earth. Help me wish him Happy Birthday again in the comments cause he deserves all the love! Nwoke eji eje mba”.
Also, taking to her Instagram story, Maria affirmed her love for Kevin.
“I love him”, she wrote.
Last year, the reality television star became a mother for the second time, welcoming a baby girl. Sharing the good news, Maria stated that her whole existence would never cease to praise God, as she expressed gratitude to him for her blessings.
In October 2023, Maria and her partner welcomed their first child, a baby boy. The reality star made this known with an heartwarming photo of her, her boyfriend and their son, as she spoke of how her precious baby boy had already begun to change her life in profound ways.
Maria Chike and her partner Kelvin have been together for an impressive number of years now, and their relationship had been ruffled with quite a number of controversies. There have been several allegations that she had snatched him from another lady, and she has faced a lot of backlash because of that.
Recall that in October 2021, Cubana Chief Priest dragged Maria as he accused her of ruining his sister’s marriage. He revealed that his sister gave up the marriage after discovering that her husband, Kelvin, sponsored Maria’s entrance into the Big Brother Naija reality show. He added that his sister had gone to Dubai to visit her husband, who had refused to pick up her call, and eventually met Maria at his house wearing his T-shirt.
Addressing reports of wrecking her boyfriend’s marriage, in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, Maria claimed that she never knew Kevin was married before they started dating. She made it known that she didn’t destroy his marriage and vowed to stand by her words.
In February, 2024, it was alleged that Maria and her baby daddy had tied the knot. She fueled the rumors when she showed off a ring on her wedding finger in a picture that she shared on social media.
