Ugandan-British model and social media influencer Eva Apio has publicly clarified that she was never in a romantic relationship with Nigerian Afrobeats star Asake, putting an end to persistent rumors that had linked the two as a couple.
The clarification came after a viral tweet by a user named David Anthony, who posted a photo of Asake and Eva Apio together, captioning it, “Asake and his girlfriend (Eva Apio).” In response, Eva quickly took to Twitter (X) to refute the claim, making it clear that no romantic relationship had ever existed between her and the singer. She stressed that people should stop spreading misinformation that could affect her public image and professional opportunities — a move many believe was made to “protect her market” as an influencer and model.
The speculation surrounding Eva and Asake had been fueled by their public appearances together, particularly during Paris Fashion Week, where they were seen attending the Marine Serre fashion show in coordinated outfits. Their chemistry and physical closeness in public, especially moments captured of them dancing together in a Paris nightclub, further intensified the dating rumors, sparking widespread discussion on social media.
However, despite these public sightings and coordinated appearances, Eva Apio has now firmly set the record straight, insisting that their interactions should not be mistaken for a romantic relationship. Her statement aims to eliminate any confusion and curb assumptions that could impact her branding or how she’s perceived in both the fashion and entertainment industries.
Her response has drawn mixed reactions online—while some fans appreciate her transparency, others question the nature of her previous outings with Asake. Nonetheless, Eva’s firm stance emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries in public narratives, especially in the age of viral content and social media speculation.
