In a moment that blended celebration with remembrance, Chioma Adeleke, wife of Nigerian music icon Davido, paid a deeply moving tribute to her late son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, during their white wedding ceremony held in Miami on August 10, 2025.
Chioma, who had remained largely absent from social media since the tragic loss of her three-year-old son in October 2022, returned with a heartfelt post that resonated across the globe. Sharing an image of her wedding bouquet adorned with a photo of Ifeanyi, she wrote: “My best friend walked me into forever… Ify, you’re on my mind every day and you live in my heart. Always and forever. Love, mummy.”
Davido, equally touched, honored their son by wearing custom cufflinks engraved with Ifeanyi’s image. He responded to Chioma’s tribute with the words, “Till Infinity,” a testament to the enduring love and memory of their child.
The couple’s wedding marked the final chapter in a three-part celebration of their union, following a court marriage in March 2023 and a traditional ceremony in Lagos in June 2024. The Miami event drew prominent figures from Nigeria’s entertainment and political spheres, and was a lavish affair that reportedly cost $3.7 million.
