Laura Ikeji’s family is never really far from controversy so it was only normal that even after getting married some of that controversy followed her.

Let’s take a look at Laura Ikeji’s marriage, cheating allegations and  baby mama drama.

Laura Ikeji’s Married Life

Just few days after getting married, Laura Ikeji took her instagram to reveal that being married did not mean so much to her and did not make her feel any different than she already felt.

She went on to say  that she had a lot of important things to achieve and that marriage to her was not an achievement the way most women made it out to be.

She even compared marriage to an obligation that society required for women to fulfill.

There were some rumors that Laura was pregnant before getting married and that was why her wedding to Ogbonna had been hastily done. Judging by the timeline of this rumor and the birth of her first child, it would seem that the rumors were indeed true and that she was actually pregnant before her traditional marriage.

It was also later revealed that Ogbonna Kalu already has two kids from his past relationship and they were already all grown up.

Despite her initial statement about marriage not being an achievement, the beautiful outspoken influencer praises her husband on her instagram page on a consistent basis. If you’ve been following her then you should know that her social media pages are filed with loved up pictures of her and her hubby Ogbonna.

Laura Ikeji Clashes with  Amara Kanu  On Instagram

Amara Kanu, wife of Kanu Nwankwo, dragged Ogbonna Kanu for being a leech and eating off her husband’s and even children’s money.

Laura was obviously not happy with this and she communicated her displeasure when a fan asked her a question on instagram concerning her friendship with Amara Kanu.

She replied the question with a simple answer

“We are not friends”

She received a lot of back lash for that comment to which she replied with another even more insulting comment

“What i have achieved just in January by working my butts off, both u and her can’t achieve in 10 years but hey.”

This confirmed they were for sure not friends.

We know at least that they have never  publicly acknowledged each other despite being  married into the same family.

Laura has since apologized for her outburst on social media.

Hannah Turay, who is Ogbonna Kanu’s baby mama accused him of being a dead beat dad and not taking care of his children.

She revealed that the responsibilities of taking care of their children has been left completely to her.

On a now deleted post on instagram, this was what she wrote;

“There is a saying  that monkey dey work, baboon dey chop, patiently waiting for you so called baby daddy user.”

“15 years I have been a full time mother to my children without any support whatsoever. £40- £50 there and then, Lord I thank you, without you I’m nobody.”

It seems Ogbonna Kanu has become more actively involved with his children since she blasted him, because there has been no reports of him neglecting his kids since then.

While there has been a million speculations surrounding Laura and Ogbonna’s Union, some, even saying he is with her because of the financial gains, they have kept things positive on their own end and have  welcomed two beautiful children together.

A great lesson to take from their marriage so far is that it’s normal for people to have opinions on your life regardless of what you do, but you should never let their words get to you or stop you from being happy and positive.

They recently celebrated their 5th wedding anniversary and we can’t wait to celebrate even more beautiful wedding anniversary with them online.
