Nigeria’s favorite fashion icon and TV host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, has set a new standard for romance. To celebrate his 10th wedding anniversary with his wife, Cynthia, Ebuka pulled off a stunning surprise re-proposal right in the heart of Vatican City.
The couple, who officially tied the knot on February 6, 2016, spent their milestone day in Rome. The highlight of the trip came when Ebuka went down on one knee in front of St. Peter’s Basilica to present Cynthia with a new ring—a “secret project” he revealed was crafted by Akano Diamonds. Passersby in St. Peter’s Square reportedly stopped to cheer as Cynthia, visibly shocked, said “Yes” all over again.
The spiritual significance of the trip didn’t stop there. The couple attended Mass at the Basilica and received an official 10th-anniversary certificate from the Pope, marking a decade of a union that has remained remarkably scandal-free in the public eye. Ebuka shared the news with his millions of followers on Instagram, captioning the moment: “Someone got a surprise re-proposal on holy grounds… Now, it’s vacation time. Where to next?”
