From the vibrant world of music gigs in London to exchanging vows in some of the most glamorous corners of the globe, Temi Otedola and Mr Eazi embody a fairy tale romance that feels like its scenes were pulled right out of a blockbuster movie. Their journey from chance acquaintances to newlyweds has been a reflection of style, love, and shared dreams, culminating in a whirlwind wedding celebration that resonates far beyond their star-studded circles.
Their story began in the heart of London in 2016, during a lively event where DJ Cuppy was spinning tracks and Mr Eazi found himself striking up a conversation with a then-unknown lady next to him, who happened to be Cuppy’s sister, Temi. This serendipitous meeting sparked a connection that neither of them anticipated would grow into an enduring romance. It was simply two people sharing a moment, unaware it was the start of a lasting journey.
In the vibrant setting of Knightsbridge, I met Temi, invited by her sister, DJ Cuppy. As she performed, it felt natural to engage with the intriguing lady beside me, not knowing that moment held the promise of a lifetime together.
When 2017 rolled in, whispers of a romance blossoming between Temi and Mr Eazi started gaining traction. The pair attended several high-profile events together, effortlessly stepping into the roles of a distinguished power couple. For nearly six years, they maintained a relationship that, while prominent, was devoid of the drama that often plagues celebrity romances. Their collaborative ventures, like the “How Far” podcast, showcased their shared passions, adding depth to their public personas.
Their social media presence was sprinkled with snapshots from their adventures, both local and international. Whether embarking on romantic dates or enjoying family hangouts that included Temi’s influential father, Mr Eazi’s acceptance into the family circle signaled their commitment on a deeper level.
2018 marked a significant year as Mr Eazi publicly affirmed his feelings for Temi, declaring his love in an interview that resonated with romantics throughout Nigeria and beyond. This heartfelt admission was a turning point, bearing testament to a bond deeper than the surface-level glimpses offered through social media and public appearances.
“I am very much in love with her and hoping for it to go as far as possible,” he professed, a statement that left fans anticipating the next chapter for this glamorous pair.
The following years saw their bond strengthen, leading to the much-anticipated proposal in April 2022. Against the picturesque backdrop of Venice, Italy, Mr Eazi proposed to Temi while on the set of the music video for his song Legalize. The proposal, shared with fans in a beautifully captured video, was a viral hit that evoked both excitement and admiration across social media platforms.
In an embrace of love and legacy, May 9, 2025, saw their union officially recognized with a court ceremony at the Marie de Monaco town hall. This intimate celebration, marked on Mr Eazi’s late mother’s birthday, was a private affair attended only by a few cherished individuals. With Temi adorned in a bespoke Wiederhoeft suit and Mr Eazi exuding elegance in Louis Vuitton, the day was a tribute to their journey and a celebration of lasting memories.
Amongst a close gathering of just four guests, including Temi’s aide and a friend of Mr Eazi’s, the couple’s glowing joy was amplified by a quiet champagne toast amid a stunning view—the perfect blend of love and tranquility.
Next was their traditional Yoruba wedding in July 2025—the grandeur of which embodied the essence of Nigerian culture. Hosted at the esteemed Otedola family estate in Dubai, it was a day brimming with vibrant traditions, from live drumming to symbolic ceremonies. Temi captivated in ensembles from designers like Zac Posen and Oscar de la Renta, honoring her heritage through contemporary fashion. Guests such as Aliko Dangote and other icons filled the event with prestige and joy.
Mr Eazi impressively matched the occasion, donning luxury agbadas that spoke to his sophisticated style, adding richness to the celebrations. The event was ablaze with rhythmic music and lasting memories, signifying not just a union, but the joining of two culturally profound families.
