Idowu faced a massive backlash from the fans from her bold actions, but Tokunbo had not thought it to be a significant thing. It was not until her fathers showed her the screenshots of her viral acts that she understood the scale of her deeds. For Tokunbo it was natural to completely strip when showering and she even used to walk around naked in her home.
Another controversy struck her when she was asked to sing the Nigerian national anthem, and she couldn’t remember all the words.

Tokunbo Idowu Affairs: Dating and Boyfriend History
Tokunbo Idowu jumps into the spotlight, but after her appearance in Big Brother Naija. Since then, she has remained away from mainstream media, which is why relatively so less is known about her personal and dating life.
When she was still in the Big Brother Naija house, Tokunvo was romantically involved with housemate Miyonse. We are not sure if they ever reached the stature of actually dating or if Miyonse was Tokunbo Idowu’s boyfriend. But the two have not reprised their relationship after the show ended. The Big Brother Naija star was also rumoured to be dating the music star Elliman, but again there have been no formal confirmations on this matter too.
Lately, rumours are arising that TBoss is not only dating but already pregnant and almost married to boyfriend Uti Nwachukwu. Uti is the winner of Big Brother Africa 5: All-Stars. The reports were traced back to an SDK blog, which doesn’t seem very credible as we follow TBoss on Instagram, and she doesn’t appear pregnant.
So, Tokunbo Idowu’s boyfriend is not Uti, and her socials have no traces of a boyfriend as well. We can assume that Tokunbo is single, as she had once said that if she were dating someone, then we would know. While Tokunbo hasn’t made it clear, her recent Instagram posts suggest that she is shutting down all her dating, boyfriend and pregnant rumours.
