Koko Zaria has taken to IG to celebrate his second wife, Actress Awele saying she means alot to him. Before now, the couple had a huge disagreement, his first wife inclusive and people thought they had gone their separate ways until now that he threw her a birthday message. Hoping this birthday message won’t cause another riff at home. By the way, Awele now lives in the US with their son (pictured with Zaria in the 1st photo).
''I know that I don’t tell you often enough how much you mean to me. It’s because it’s hard to convey with only words. The closest that I can come is, you are my everything. It’s still not enough, but I’ll keep on trying for the rest of our lives my lovely WIFE. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY LOVE!!! @aweleodita7 @aweleodita7''

Cardi B's baby girl won't make her public debut if her mama gets her way because, despite a flood of offers from media outlets, she's keeping Kulture under wraps.
Sources close to Cardi tell TMZ multiple magazines, websites and photo agencies have reached out with offers for Kulture's first photo shoot. Offers have been in the $100k neighborhood or higher.
Cardi and Offset have no desire to make a deal yet. They won't even consider it until their daughter's at least 5 or 6 months old, a source said.
Sources also added Cardi just wants to focus on being a mom and bonding with her baby. So, Kulture's gonna be on the low, for now, but we also know she's already living the high life, lol, you know the baby good life.
