On Sunday, May 18, 2025, British-Ugandan model Eva Apio stirred up Nigerian social media after denying rumors of a romantic relationship with Afrobeats star Asake. Responding to a Twitter user who referred to her as Asake's girlfriend, Eva clarified, "I was never his girlfriend." A2B Media reports.

This statement surprised many fans, especially considering the pair's public appearances together, including matching outfits at Paris Fashion Week and dancing together in clubs. The denial led to a flurry of reactions online, with some users questioning the nature of their relationship.

A2satsBlog Media gathered that, fans recalled Eva's previous online interactions with Nigerian comedian Father DMW. During the COVID-19 lockdown, the two engaged in frequent Instagram Live sessions, sparking dating rumors. However, despite the online chemistry, they never met in person during that period.

The contrast between Eva's virtual relationship with Father DMW and her real-life interactions with Asake has led to debates about the authenticity of online relationships versus in-person connections.

Some fans are speculating that, maybe Asake has served her "Breakfast 💔" which is the only plausible reason why she would quote a tweet where she was not even tagged just to change the narrative. Others are alleging that she's being passed around the Nigerian entertainment industry and maybe Ayo Maff will be next.

This situation highlights the complexities of public perception in the age of social media. While public figures may share glimpses of their lives online, it's essential to remember that not everything is as it seems. Assumptions based on appearances can often lead to misunderstandings so Public figures should also be conscious of what they are putting out there to avoid being caught in such situation like this. However, personally, I think they're in a relationship jhoor *winks.
