In a dramatic twist that’s got social media buzzing, self-styled relationship coach Blessing CEO has backtracked on her earlier announcement that she and fiancé IVD are done. She now claims the breakup was a deliberate attempt to stir controversy and reclaim her public relevance. 

Her confession has reignited debates: was the breakup ever real — or just content in disguise?



Timeline of Events

  • Earlier this week, Blessing CEO took to Instagram and announced that she and IVD were officially splitting. In her post, she said, “Officially ending the content creation between us … Back to my controversy, love is not for me.” 

  • She indicated she might sell or give away the engagement ring, and that she’d cover up a tattoo she had dedicated to him.

  • Hours later, she posted another video showing her and IVD shaking hands amicably, signaling reconciliation. 

  • In a follow-up post, she admitted the breakup was a calculated move. As she put it:

    “I was losing my touch of controversy. Decided to test it again. I still got the magic … Wedding loading.” The Nation Newspaper+1

  • She apologized to bloggers and announced that her asoebi (traditional wedding guest attire) was “ready.”

The reversal has left fans and critics alike scrambling to decipher which parts were real and which were staged.





Public Reaction & Social Media Buzz

Online chatter erupted almost immediately:

  • Many fans expressed frustration, calling the stunt “tiring” or “manipulative.”

  • Others defended her, arguing that in the attention economy, sometimes you have to break to rebuild your relevance.

  • A few users joked that the “breakup” was clickbait to make headlines again.

One viral comment read:

“She wants to trend no matter the cost.”

Still, some fans expressed relief at the reconciliation, especially given IVD’s troubled public history. The Nation Newspaper+1
