Eva Apio Clears the Air: 'I Was Never Asake’s Girlfriend'

Ugandan-born model Eva Apio has officially denied ever dating Nigerian music sensation Asake, putting to rest the rumors that have been swirling around the two celebrities. Taking to her X page, Eva addressed the speculation after a tweet from a netizen insinuated a romantic relationship between them.

The rumor initially gained traction when Eva Apio and Asake were spotted together on multiple occasions, leading many fans to believe that they were an item. Adding fuel to the fire, a social media user shared a photo of the pair and captioned it, 'Asake and his Girlfriend (Eva Apio),' implying that the model was indeed involved with the hitmaker.

However, Eva Apio wasted no time in clearing the air. In response to the post, she straightforwardly stated, 'I was never his girlfriend,' unequivocally denying any romantic involvement with Asake. Her response has since sparked varied reactions from social media users.

One user, @Lord_GT15, humorously commented, 'Wearing his & hers outfits platonically. Respect. 😌' while another, @OloriOfOloris, expressed disbelief at the rumors, saying, 'Nigerians sef. You people really thought Eva dated Asake? Because of photoshoot?'

Some reactions, however, took a different tone, with @chudunno_me remarking, 'Not being somebody’s girlfriend and having sex with them is crazy,' while @numberonetweep speculated, 'This babe no rate Asake.' Meanwhile, @Amy_beke laughed at the situation, saying, 'Nigeria men are too funny, you people really thought they dated fr😂.'

One comment that drew significant attention was from @Mygodfather__, who suggested that the rumors might be part of a publicity stunt, saying, 'Poor rollout!! This Asake rollout na one of a kind ooo… he don use fake papa and mama, now na fake GF situation. He just dey copy and paste Burna’s format.'

As the conversation continues, fans remain divided on whether the pair’s public appearances were purely platonic or if there was more to the story. Eva Apio’s firm denial, however, leaves little room for speculation, as she has made it clear that she was never Asake’s girlfriend.

The rumors had initially stirred excitement among fans who were quick to link the model and the singer. Still, with Eva Apio putting an end to the speculation, it appears that any assumed romantic connection was merely a product of wishful thinking and coincidental sightings.
