Uche Uwaezeapu, the winner of Gulder Ultimate Search VI in 2009, has tied the knot with his fiancee, Lauren Agokei. The couple exchanged vows at the Federal Marriage Registry in Lagos last week.

In a post shared on his IG page, Uche revealed how his wife slid into his DM, shot her shot and ultimately won his heart.

Read their love story below:

“I was on Facebook one lovely day and then I got a message from a girl, checked her profile first, and wow she was so beautiful…I wanted to ignore but I couldn’t it was hard…and we got chatting on Facebook for about a year, we were so close….At some point, we lost contact for a few months… but we found each other again… we met and we became lovers and best friends. I’m so glad I didn’t dull myself,” Uche narrated.

Lauren on her part said that on the day she slid into Uche’s DM, she was only hoping for friendship and nothing more.

She said, “One day I was going through my Facebook page and then I saw this cute guy on a group that I belonged to, and then I slid into his dm, and he replied I’m sure he was wondering why a pretty girl was saying hi, but I just wanted to be friends. We got chatting and chatting and then we stopped chatting for months and one day he slid into my dm…and from then, Facebook chats and calls continued for a year, we finally met, started a relationship, and fell in love and I’m so happy I slid into his dm first lol.”
