Super Eagles goalkeeper Maduka Okoye and American rap superstar Cardi B set social media buzzing after they were spotted together during Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday.
The duo attended the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2026 Haute Couture Show, where Okoye was seen escorting Cardi B to her seat before the pair sat side by side to watch the runway presentation. They were also photographed together at the Messika presentation during the fashion showcase.
Videos and photos from the event quickly went viral across TikTok, X, and other social media platforms, with fans reacting to their relaxed interaction and stylish appearances. Cardi B's striking red ensemble at the Haute Couture Show was widely hailed as one of the standout looks of the event.
Earlier that day, celebrity gossip outlet DeuxMoi had shared photos of Cardi B and Okoye chatting on a balcony during a private event. The pair appeared to be smiling and laughing together, further fuelling online conversations that have surrounded the Nigerian goalkeeper in recent weeks.
Their latest public appearance has sparked speculation about the nature of their relationship, particularly following Cardi B's widely reported split from NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs, the father of her youngest child.
Despite the speculation, neither Cardi B nor Okoye has publicly addressed the rumours, and there is no confirmed evidence that the pair are romantically involved. Okoye is reportedly in an on-and-off relationship with Jelicia Westhoff, the mother of his son, Emiliano Isiah, with both understood to be co-parenting.
