The social media influencer made the announcement during a podcast appearance, revealing that she is now back on the dating scene as a single mother and single woman.
She said: “IVD and I are no longer together. These days, I like to respect my fans. Everybody says, ‘Leave IVD, leave IVD.’ They say he is not good for you and that he brought you bad luck. Trust me, I’ve left him.”
“Let me pick up the pieces of my life. So, I’m back on the street as a single mother and a single girl. I’ve left him.”
“As for IVD, I’ve left him. Anybody who wants to date him is free. At this point, I’m back in the market.”

Her death sparked widespread allegations of domestic violence, police investigations and a prolonged legal battle, which ended in 2025 when IVD was discharged and acquitted of complicity in her death.
