Beyond the headlines and viral moments, his dating history maps out a story of love, fame, and fatherhood.
With multiple relationships in the public eye and a growing family, Davido’s journey from bachelorhood to matrimony has captivated fans across Africa and beyond.

American fling with Amanda
During a stint in the United States, Davido was romantically linked to Amanda, a woman of Togolese descent based in Atlanta.
The relationship produced his second daughter, Hailey Veronica Adeleke, born in 2017.
While Amanda has kept a relatively low profile, Davido has often showcased moments with Hailey on social media, reflecting his commitment to being a present father.
Relationship with Larissa London

Chioma Avril Rowland, a culinary enthusiast and influencer, emerged in Davido’s life during the peak of his music career.

Tragedy and resilience
In November 2022, Davido and Chioma faced unimaginable tragedy when their son Ifeanyi drowned at their Lagos home.
The heartbreaking incident led the couple to step away from public life, mourning privately. Their resilience through grief became a quiet testament to their bond.
Marriage to chioma and new beginnings
In early 2023, Davido confirmed that he and Chioma had tied the knot in a private ceremony. The union symbolized healing, love, and the start of a new chapter.
