She talked about the good days and the not-so-good ones.

Khafi admitted she still feels a little shy talking about marriage in public. Couples who&#8217;ve been at it for decades know far more than she does, and she doesn&#8217;t want to sound like she has it all figured out. Still, she said it&#8217;s one of her favourite things to talk about. Relatable, right?<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then she turned to Gedoni and thanked him for being patient and tolerant. She called him her &#8220;own Emmanuel,&#8221; which means &#8220;God with me.&#8221; She ended by wishing the two of them &#8220;100 years&#8221; together. Big prayer, but why not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quick refresher if you need one. They met on the 2019 Pepper Dem season of BBNaija, and their romance was one of the storylines viewers followed most closely.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Things moved fast after that. Gedoni proposed in December 2019 during a trip to Cape Verde. They planned an April 2020 wedding, but Covid-19 had other ideas and everything got postponed.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They didn&#8217;t wait around, though. On 24 September 2020, they tied the knot at the Ikoyi Marriage Registry in Lagos, with a traditional ceremony following later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today, they&#8217;re parents to two children, and they&#8217;ve kept sharing family moments and past anniversaries online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"495\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/isokovibe.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images286292544542502109053972.jpg\" alt=\"images (6)2544542502109053972.\" class=\"wp-image-9886\" srcset=\"https:\/\/isokovibe.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images286292544542502109053972.jpg 495w, https:\/\/isokovibe.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/images286292544542502109053972-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 495px) 100vw, 495px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Khafi with Gedoni and their two children.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Khafi, a former police officer in London who&#8217;s originally from Ekiti State, and Gedoni, a fashion entrepreneur, are part of a small group of BBNaija couples who got married after meeting on the show.
