"Shoot Your Shot!" – How Blessing CEO Took the Bold Step That Led to Love with IVD

Popular relationship therapist and self-acclaimed social media personality, Blessing CEO, has once again ignited conversations online with her candid revelation about how she met and fell deeply in love with her fiancé, Ikechukwu Ogbonna, widely known as IVD. In a story that reads like a scene from a romantic movie, Blessing CEO demonstrated that confidence, vulnerability, and emotional honesty can indeed spark something truly special.

Sharing her story with the kind of raw authenticity that has earned her both admiration and criticism in equal measure, Blessing recounted the very moment their paths crossed. She painted the picture with such vividness that fans could almost smell the cologne she described and feel the intensity in the room. "As he walked into my office, his perfume and aura caught my attention," she said. "Who be this guy wey get Buga for body?" she wondered aloud, referencing his confidence and star-studded presence.

From her balcony, she noticed how her security personnel stood in a manner that suggested someone of high status had entered. She shook her head and muttered to herself, "Na Lagos big boy oo." But instead of sitting back and letting the moment pass, she composed herself, stood up boldly, and made her move. "I walked to him on the couch and said in all boldness… forget noise and cho cho cho, IVD fine, tattoo, composure, clean, cute… him come dey shine teeth. I don fall at first sight, I no go lie," she confessed without shame.

The chemistry was instant, but it wasn’t just about physical attraction. As the conversation progressed, Blessing discovered a layer of vulnerability beneath IVD’s cool demeanor. “He did not talk too much,” she recalled. “He said to me, ‘They said I am an illiterate, I don’t know how to talk, I am very shy.’” But where others saw shyness and silence, Blessing saw depth. She saw a man hiding pain behind a smile, and her response was both compassionate and empowering. "IVD, I will teach you," she said. "Give me the microphone, I will speak for you."

That moment became the beginning of what she now refers to as a remarkable love story. It wasn’t long before she admitted her feelings to her personal assistant, Prisca. “I told my PA, ‘Prisca, I like this guy. E get swag. He smells nice.’” According to Blessing, her PA gave her full support, saying, “Mama, I dey your back.” That was all the push she needed.

Blessing CEO has always been known for being outspoken and unapologetic about going after what she wants. And in true fashion, she didn’t hesitate to make a move. “If I want it, I go for it. And the rest is history,” she said confidently. Her approach might not be traditional, but it has certainly worked for her.

Her story comes at a time when conversations about modern love and dating dynamics are constantly evolving, with more women being encouraged to take control of their romantic lives. With this revelation, Blessing CEO seems to be advocating for more boldness and honesty in love. “Relationship expert wey don get relationship dey tell you say, shoot your shot,” she added cheekily, “but if b**et touch you, chest am.”

The story has been met with a wide range of reactions online. While some fans praised her transparency and courage, others expressed surprise and even skepticism. But love stories rarely unfold in ways that everyone understands. What’s clear is that for Blessing CEO and IVD, their connection was instant, emotional, and deeply personal.

IVD, who himself has been a controversial figure in the public eye following the tragic loss of his wife and past media scrutiny, appears to have found not just companionship but support in Blessing. She didn’t just see a flashy guy with tattoos—she saw a man in need of healing and love. And in opening her heart to him, she also offered her voice, her strength, and her presence.

It’s not often you hear such an unfiltered love story from public figures, especially those who have built careers giving advice to others. But Blessing CEO has once again proven that she walks the talk. Her story is not just about love; it’s a call to action for anyone—man or woman—who's waiting for the "perfect moment" to speak up, make a move, or embrace what they truly want.

“Shoot your shot,” she insists, and perhaps in her boldness, others will find the courage to follow their own hearts, even when it's scary, unconventional, or uncertain.

In a world where appearances often overshadow reality, Blessing CEO and IVD's story is a reminder that true love sometimes begins with a bold step, a heartfelt conversation, and a willingness to look beyond the surface. Whether this chapter of their journey leads to a forever after or simply adds to the richness of their individual stories, one thing is certain—Blessing CEO has given everyone something to talk about, and perhaps, something to believe in.
