Controversial relationship therapist, Blessing Okoro, popularly known as Blessing CEO, has sparked widespread concern after releasing a disturbing video in which she cried out for help, claiming she was in danger.
In the since-deleted video, the self-acclaimed relationship expert appeared visibly shaken as she called on those close to her to reach out, saying she was “in distress” and “being violated.”
“He’s mentally not ok. If you have my number, please call me. I’m in distress and being violated. I am not safe,” she said in the emotional clip.
The video also showed a chaotic scene inside a room, with broken glass scattered on the floor, further fueling fears that the situation may have turned violent.
Though Blessing did not mention any names, many social media users believe she was referring to her lover, IVD, the Lagos-based auto dealer with whom she has had a public and often controversial relationships.
Earlier this month, Blessing had publicly announced that she was calling off her engagement and even offered to sell or give away her engagement ring. However, hours later, she retracted the statement, admitting that it was “a clout test” because she felt she was “losing her touch of controversy.”
“I was just clout chasing. I realized I was losing my controversial touch, so I decided to test it again,” she confessed in a follow-up post.
Blessing and IVD first sparked dating rumours in 2023, when she posted a photo of a mystery man with her name tattooed on his arm. At the time, she expressed both fear and excitement, saying she thought she would “never love again.”
In January 2024, during an interview with Daddy Freeze, Blessing confirmed that she was indeed in a relationship with IVD. She described him as “loving and caring”, expressing hope that they would get married someday.
By April 2024, she officially announced her engagement, saying this was the first time she wasn’t craving drama because she wanted “peace and softness” in her life.
“This is the first time I’m not craving drama. I just want peace and softness in my new life,” she wrote then.
However, recent developments have cast doubt on that peace, as fans continue to express concern for her safety following her latest emotional breakdown.
