Maria also extended heartfelt birthday wishes to Obi Cubana, calling him a legend and encouraging her fans to celebrate him as well.

In another story, Maria openly expressed her feelings for Kelvin, simply writing, “I love him.”
Maria Chike and Kelvin’s love story has been filled with joy, milestones, and a fair share of controversies. The couple recently welcomed their second child, a baby girl, in 2024. Maria celebrated the arrival with a heartwarming post, expressing her gratitude to God. This joyful news came after the birth of their first child, a baby boy, in October 2023, which Maria described as life-changing.
Despite their growing family, the couple’s relationship has faced public scrutiny, particularly after allegations surfaced in 2021 from Cubana Chief Priest. He accused Maria of being involved with Kelvin while he was married to his sister. Maria, however, denied these claims in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, asserting that she was unaware of Kelvin’s marital status when their relationship began.
In February 2024, speculation arose that Maria and Kelvin had tied the knot. Maria fueled the rumors after sharing a photo featuring a ring on her wedding finger. While the couple has not confirmed the news, fans continue to celebrate their enduring love story.
