Nigerian rapper Zlatan Ibile and his longtime partner Davita Lamai have reportedly taken a significant step in their relationship by holding a private civil wedding ceremony. Images from the low-key event surfaced on social media on Wednesday, May 19, surprising many fans. The wedding was kept away from public attention until a decorator involved in the ceremony confirmed it online.
Decorator Reveals Details of the Private Ceremony
An event decorator identified as @decor_with_dems shared details about the ceremony on Instagram while posting clips and photos from the event setup. According to the decorator, the wedding was intentionally kept private. The post read: 'The Private Civil Ceremony of Davita & Zlatan. A beautifully curated moment designed with love and We Kept it Private, Until Now. Thanks to the Omoniyi’s for trusting us.'
Zlatan Previously Denied Marriage Rumors
The wedding news comes just months after Zlatan publicly corrected reports claiming Davita was already his wife. In January, social media users circulated posts referring to Davita as the rapper’s wife. Reacting at the time, Zlatan made it clear that although Davita was the mother of his child, they were not married. The singer also expressed frustration over the spread of false information online, noting that he rarely discusses his private life publicly but felt forced to address the rumors.
Instagram Name Change Fueled Speculation
Marriage speculation surrounding the couple intensified in March after Davita quietly updated her Instagram name to include 'Omoniyi,' Zlatan’s surname. That single move immediately got social media users talking, with many people insisting it was a sign that wedding plans were already underway.

Following the release of the wedding photos, social media users shared their reactions. @aderonke_18 stated: 'Nah waitn you want people to know abt you then go know, even gistlovers no get witching nah go dey tell he/she unah gist.' @beingodi shared: 'This man’s gene eeehhhh….

Popular Instagram blogger Tunde Ednut, a close associate of the Zanku Records boss, shared the news and posted photos of the luxury car, sparking excitement and a wave of congratulatory messages from fans across social media platforms.
