Zlatan Ibile and Davita Lamai Set Wedding Date as Son’s Sweet Message Melts Hearts
Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile and Davita Lamai wedding date announcement, giving fans another reason to celebrate the couple’s relationship.
The couple revealed that their wedding will take place on October 24, 2026, through a “Save the Date” video shared on Instagram on Thursday night. The announcement has attracted attention online, particularly because of the touching message from one of their children featured in the video.
Rather than making the announcement with a simple caption, Zlatan and Davita offered fans a glimpse into their family life, with their son reflecting on the love he has witnessed between his parents.

The video features romantic moments between Zlatan and Davita, alongside a voiceover from one of their children celebrating the bond they share as a family.
Although the couple have kept much of their private life away from the public, their relationship has attracted considerable attention over the years.
For fans who have followed their journey, the announcement represents an important milestone as they prepare to celebrate their relationship with family, friends and well-wishers.
Details about the wedding venue, guest list and other arrangements have not yet been publicly disclosed.
Their Son’s Message Becomes a Talking Point
One of the most touching parts of the wedding announcement on Instagram is the message from the couple’s son, who describes what love means to him through his parents’ relationship.
In the video, he says:
“When I think about love, I think about my mommy and daddy.”
He goes on to describe how his parents have shown him that family means laughing together, supporting each other and always feeling loved.
The message also acknowledges the place he and his younger brother have in their parents’ story, before inviting viewers to save the date for the October 24 celebration.
The family-centred approach gives the announcement a personal touch, allowing fans to see a different side of the rapper, who is better known publicly for his music and energetic performances.
It is also a reminder that, beyond the celebrity attention surrounding the couple, their relationship includes the family they have built together.

A Relationship That Has Kept Fans Curious
Zlatan, whose real name is Omoniyi Temidayo Raphael, and Davita have been together for several years and have two sons.
Despite maintaining a relatively private family life, the couple have occasionally attracted public speculation about the status of their relationship.
In early 2023, reports that they had unfollowed each other on Instagram fuelled breakup rumours. Neither publicly confirmed a separation at the time, and they later continued sharing occasional glimpses of their family life.
Questions about their marital status resurfaced in 2026, with reports about wedding rings, a possible private civil ceremony and plans for a larger celebration.
In July, the couple reportedly shared news of their wedding plans with friends and colleagues while travelling to the wedding of music executive Soso Soberekon.
The October 24 announcement now gives fans a confirmed date for the forthcoming celebration. However, reports about an earlier civil ceremony should be distinguished from the newly announced wedding date, as the couple have not publicly provided a full account of those earlier reports.
Fans and Celebrities Celebrate the Announcement
The announcement has generated congratulatory messages from fans and fellow entertainers.
Afrobeats star Davido was among those who reacted to the post, adding to the excitement surrounding the couple’s plans.
For many fans, the news is particularly welcome because Zlatan and Davita have spent years building their relationship and raising their children while keeping much of their personal lives private.
The inclusion of their son in the announcement has also made the moment more memorable, shifting attention from the usual celebrity wedding speculation to the family bond at the heart of the celebration.

Final Thoughts
