You won't believe who's number 1.

Celebrity business is our business. As much as celebrities hate this invasion of privacy, once they make their relationships public, it becomes table conversation for every Nigerian household. Let’s face it, we like it. All of us enjoy having a mutual thing to talk about and celebrities give us just that – something to talk about.

But the question I’m looking at today is: as far as 2020 goes, which celebrity couple has been in the media and on people’s mouths the most this year.

I dug deep, did my research and now I am here to tell you the 7 Most Popular Celebrity Couples in Nigeria for the year 2020

Are you ready to see who’s number 1? Then let’s go!

7. Mike Edwards and Perri Edwards

Former BBNaija housemate Mike made headlines when he came into the Big Brother house last year as a married man.

Throughout the competition, he won over the hearts of fans all over Nigeria and ended up placing second in the competition overall.

This year, Mike made the headlines again when he announced that he and his wife Perri were expecting a child together. They once again made headlines with the announcement of safe delivery of the baby, and he has now as recently as today made headlines yet again by revealing that he and his wife Perri will be having their own reality TV show called ‘Mike and Perri’ scheduled to air on MTV and BET digital.

6. Teddy A and Bam Bam

Just like Mike, both Teddy A and Bam Bam are stars from the third season of the Big Brother Naija franchise.

The couple tied the knot in a lavish televised ceremony in 2019, and in 2020 they once again made headlines when they announced the arrival of their baby girl in March.

5. Ebuka Obi-Uchendu and Cynthia Obi-Uchendu

Because Ebuka Obi-Uchendu is the host of Big Brother Naija, he gets a lot of attention everywhere. From his fashion to his talking points, every week especially when BBNaija is on, Ebuka is a trending topic all over social media.

Because of this, he became one of the most-talked about people in 2020 and as an extension, his relationship with his wife also came up a number of times. The couple celebrated five years of marriage this year.

4. Simi and Adekunle Gold.

Since the confirmation of their relationship and their private wedding ceremony, Simi and Adekunle Gold have been in the public eye as one of the most celebrated couples in Nigeria. This year, they were on the headlines again because Simi announced through what went on to become her biggest song to date, Duduke, that she was pregnant with Adekunle’s child.

The baby has since arrived and the two have both gone on to release musical projects this year.

3. Davido and Chioma

Davido is one of the most popular celebrities in Nigeria. His fame swelled when he announced his relationship with current girlfriend, Chioma and ever since that announcement happened, the two of them are constantly in the media.

Last year they welcomed a child together and this year, they were in the news several times – for Chioma having COVID, for the announcement that the two were meant to get married this year but for COVID, these two have constantly been in the limelight and are by far one of the most-talked about celebrity couples in the nation.

2. Ned Nwoko and Regina Daniels.

There was a time period (and is still not really over) when every single day like clockwork, you would see a news article about Ned Nwoko and Regina Daniels. Their relationship was BY FAR the most talked about relationship in Nigeria (well, until #1 happened later in the year).

From the news of the arrival of their baby, to all the rumors and conspiracies about the relationship, Ned Nwoko and Regina Daniels relationship was constantly in the news cycle and they would have taken the cake for #1 if not for…

1. Kiddwaya and Erica

Big Brother Naija held this year from 19 July – 27 September 2020 and the most talked about couple from that house was Kiddwaya and Erica.

The relationship was constantly the talking point for so many people and people had THOUGHTS! Some said she was in the relationship for the money, some said they would never work. These two’s relationships dominated the news cycle and still continues to dominate the news cycle even now.

There has not been a couple more talked about than #KiddRica this year. Regina Daniels and Ned Nwoko came very close but at the end, these two take the cake.

That’s All.
