Ugandan-British model Eva Apio has finally addressed the long-standing rumours linking her to Nigerian Afrobeats star Asake. She has now set the record straight. After months of speculation and subtle hints on social media, Apio has denied ever being in a romantic relationship with the music star.
The rumours gained fresh attention on Sunday. This happened after a photo of the pair, taken in Paris, resurfaced online. In the photo, they appeared in matching outfits. An X user (formerly Twitter) shared the picture with the caption, “Asake and his girlfriend, Eva Apio.”
The post quickly went viral. Fans reacted with excitement, saying they had always believed the two were dating. Some praised their chemistry, while others admired their coordinated outfits. The buzz grew fast, and many were convinced there was more to the story.
However, Eva Apio was quick to respond. She wasted no time clearing the air. In a direct reply to the viral post, the London-based model wrote, “I was never his girlfriend.” Her short but firm statement brought the rumours to a sudden stop.
So far, Asake and his team have not commented on the photo or the growing chatter. Still, Apio’s response has left little room for doubt. Her decision to speak up has now put an end to the speculations.
Eva Apio is known for her fashion influence and her connections in the entertainment world. Because of this, she is often the subject of dating rumours. However, she rarely addresses them publicly. This time, she chose to be clear and direct.
Whether fans were rooting for them as a couple or just enjoyed seeing them together, it is now clear there was no romance. With one reply, Eva Apio has officially shut down the rumours.
