- KCee has taken a trip down memory lane regarding how he met his wife, Ijeoma
- The singer said while he was sharing his brother, E-Money’s wedding invitation, she caught his eye.
- Kcee said he knew right there and then that she was his wife and he told her.
Nigerian singer, Kingsley Okonkwo, popularly known as Kcee, has recounted how he met his wife, Ijeoma Okonkwo.
According to the ‘Limpopo’ crooner, he was distributing his younger brother and business partner, Emeka Okonkwo, aka E-Money’s wedding cards when he met his wife.
Speaking in a recent interview with VJ Adams, Kcee described his encounter with his wife as love at first sight. Kcee said:
“I met my wife [Ijeoma] when I went to give Charly Boy E-Money’s wedding invitation. Immediately, I saw her I said, ‘I want to marry this girl.’ I told Presh, ‘That’s my wife’.”
“Presh was laughing. And I walked up to her and said, ‘I came to drop my brother’s wedding invite but I would like to invite you especially. And I want to marry you. She was laughing. She didn’t give me attention because she didn’t know it was Kcee that moment. I asked for her number she refused but later gave me after her colleague who told her it was Kcee.
“We started talking and I told her, ‘I want to marry you. I don’t want to date you. If I date you we won’t get married.’ Sometimes, we make a lot of mistakes.
Some people date their husband or their wife and start looking for fault and you dump your husband or your wife looking for something else that you don’t know. So look for what makes happy instead.”
Kcee and his wife Ijeoma got married in 2010. They have two children.
