How Their Story Got Here
Zlatan and Davita have been together for several years. They have two sons. The first, Shiloh, was born in 2020, and the second, Benaiah, was born in 2024. Zlatan has said he met his girlfriend in London in 2019, during his first tour, in a clip from the Your Aunties Could Never podcast. eelive reports that he was talking about Davita. Early reports from Vanguard in 2020 described her as London-based and a University of Kent graduate.
Their relationship has had some noise along the way. In February 2023, breakup rumours started after the two unfollowed each other on Instagram, but neither of them commented. A year later, in March 2024, Zlatan surprised Davita with a Mercedes-Benz and other gifts for her birthday, according to NotJustOk.
In January 2026, a viral post claimed Davita was only the mother of his children and not his wife. PM News reports that Zlatan replied on X that the post was fake. Two months later, Davita added “Omoniyi”, Zlatan’s surname, to her Instagram name.
In May 2026, photos of what was described as a private civil ceremony spread online after a decorator posted them. The couple did not comment on those photos. In late July, on a private jet to Soso Soberekon’s wedding, the singer Teni introduced them as a couple soon to marry, and Davita invited everyone on board to the wedding. No date was given then.
Zlatan has spoken about how being a father changed him. In 2023, he told VON that he stopped doing crazy stunts, such as dancing almost unclothed in the streets to promote songs. “It just changed me as a person,” he said.
In a November 2025 interview on the Madame Joyce podcast, Zlatan said his eldest son was five and had just helped him promote his album. He asked the boy to read out interview questions, which became a video on his official channel. He also said he has kept his son off Instagram on purpose, so the boy can grow up without the pressure of followers and have a normal life.
On the music side, he released his album Symbol of Hope in October 2025. This September he featured on “it’s over” with FOLA and Bella Shmurda, which closes FOLA’s new album.
