BBNaija star Ikechukwu Okonkwo, widely known as Cross, has stirred mixed reactions online after a video from his wedding showed him kissing his mother on the lips during their dance moment.
The emotional scene occurred at Cross’ white wedding to his partner, Chinonso Onyebuchi, held in Abuja and officiated by Pastor Jerry Eze. The ceremony was attended by family, friends, and several public figures.
During the mother-and-son dance, Cross shared a brief kiss on the lips with his mother, a moment that was captured on video and quickly circulated on social media, generating widespread discussion.
Cross, who became popular during the Shine Ya Eye edition of Big Brother Naija, had kept his relationship largely private until he earlier announced the April 25 wedding date.
The high-profile event drew notable guests, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, alongside other celebrities and well-wishers who gathered to celebrate the couple.
While the wedding itself marked a major milestone in the reality star’s life, attention soon shifted to the viral clip featuring the interaction between Cross and his mother.
Reactions have been divided online. Some viewers saw it as a heartfelt expression of love between a mother and her son, while others felt the gesture was inappropriate and not in line with cultural expectations around family boundaries.
