Celebrity relationships are mostly celebrated and admired by fans who have high expectations that these relationships will blossom forever. Unfortunately, in most cases, celebrity love stories come crashing as quickly as it starts and is usually for all the wrong ordinary reasons. This is why Ikechukwu Mitchell Ogbonna’s (IK Ogbonna) love story has become the subject of heated debate amongst social commentators, especially as it has to do with the reasons why the actor divorced his former wife, Sonia Morales.<\/p>\n

Their Love Story Kicked Off On Instagram<\/b><\/h2>\n

Online dating feels like a numbers game. It\u2019s like applying for jobs. You have to send your resume to people you haven’t met and perhaps attend a lot of interviews before finding the right fit. At least, this was what IK Ogbonna had to go through before he could find his now ex-wife Sonia.<\/p>\n

According to the actor, he first met Sonia Morales on the popular social media app Instagram. Out of curiosity, he had clicked through to her page, which was replete with beautiful pictures and her ventures as a model which he admired. While at it, he saw Sonia as a very considerate, hard-working, and caring person and it was what led him to initiate contact with her.<\/p>\n

That contact subsequently led to months of phone calls (with both parties opening up to each other faster and deeply), video calls, and messages culminating at last in their decision to meet each other in the flesh. Once they met, they began posting romantic photos of themselves, and of course, they were considered a perfect match for each other.<\/p>\n

At the time Sonia first visited IK in Nigeria, he noted that he was stark broke. IK further revealed how Sonia decided to put up with him despite his financial struggles and even went to the extent of getting pregnant for him. Indeed, this confirmed her love for him. Not long after, IK Ogbonna got his break into Nollywood which helped him maintain his family, despite the rough times.<\/p>\n

In 2015, IK Ogbonna and Sonia Morales Wedded In Italy<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As things got more serious between IK and his ex-wife, the lovebirds jetted out to Italy, where they got married in 2015, and their marriage was blessed with a son the same year. During their stay in Italy, they were able to foster a strong relationship.<\/p>\n

Later on, they both relocated to Nigeria, where Sonia, though she was willing to stick around her husband, felt uncomfortable due to the poor living conditions. Regardless, they had a happy, healthy, and loving relationship. But as time passed, the conditions worsened, and Sonia had to make the decisions that would change the fate of their marriage.<\/p>\n

Their Divorce Happened So Quickly Yet Silently<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It is said that their union, which was the envy of many did not eventually see them stay together for long as their admirers expected. Sonia Morales and IK Ogbonna were together for five years and were married for three years starting from 2015 before the rumors of the cracks in their home began to hit the internet. After a year of speculations, the news of their divorce was officially announced by Sonia in 2019.<\/p>\n

As is the case in some crashed relationships, there are aftermath stories of ex-lovers spilling the tea and bitter truths while they were together. As expected, this became the outcome of the IK Ogbonna’s love story with Sonia Morales. Occasionally, the Columbian model has been addressed as a ‘bitter ex’ by naysayers; this is because some of her revelations about IK Ogbonna after their marriage came crashing.<\/p>\n

In a statement that seemed a mockery of the financial capacity of her ex-husband, Sonia revealed the poor living conditions<\/a> he lived in which was characterized by mosquito bites, constant power cuts, no running water, among other things that made her leave the marriage. However, even after their divorce, IK Ogbonna’s body language has shown he still got much love for his family even though they are now living separately.<\/p>\n

Though Divorced, IK And Sonia Have Access To Their Son<\/strong><\/h3>\n

IK and his wife’s divorce was amicable. Even Sonia had to write an open letter to him in a post that is now deleted on her Instagram, thanking him for making the divorce a lot easier for everyone. On this note, they both share custody of their son, Ace Ikechukwu Ogbonna, known as AceOgbonna, on Instagram<\/a>. While he currently lives with Sonia Morales, the actor seems to have unlimited access to him.<\/p>\n
