Temi Otedola and Mr Eazi Met At An Event in London
On the first episode of their podcast titled “How Far,” Temi stated that she and Mr. Eazi met at an event in Knightbridge, London, which they were both invited to by her sister DJ Cuppy. According to her, she got there while her sister was performing and had to join Mr. Eazi at the table reserved for them. Temi revealed that she had no idea he would be there that night and was only trying to be her normal social and friendly self at the table, but Mr. Eazi was rude to her.
Mr. Eazi replied and said he just wanted her to know that he wasn’t interested in her and was only there to watch her sister play. He also said after the show, whenever he texted her, she gave slow replies on purpose. Temi Otedola also revealed that when they started dating, DJ Cuppy, her elder sister, told her that even if their relationship fails, she will continue to work with Mr. Eazi, and she was serious about it.
The Duo Began Their Relationship in 2018
Temi and Mr. Eazi have been together for about 6 years now. The duo started dating in 2018 and has been so open about their relationship. Temi revealed in an episode of her podcast that at the initial stage of their relationship, she set up a dinner date in a fancy restaurant to introduce her boyfriend to her billionaire dad, Femi Otedola. Their relationship is well accepted by Mr. Otedola, so much that he even posted a picture of Eazi on his personal Instagram page, wishing him a happy birthday. Temi Otedola once shared a photo of her and Mr Eazi, and Mr. Otedola left a comment jokingly asking, “Moremi, when una go marry?”
The duo’s relationship has been so beautiful, controversy-free, and envious. They’ve had romantic getaways at Mikonos, Greece, Tuscany, Italy, and other unknown private islands. The couple has no business with keeping their relationship private, and they pay no attention to trolls. Mr Eazi was reported to have said Temi Otedola is his one and only girlfriend, and there’s nothing hidden about it. Reacting to people saying he was dating her because of her father’s wealth, Eazi said: “What comes out of me is who I am, at the end of the day, people can say what they want.”
