Cross Reveals How He Saw His Fiancée’s Spirit in Heaven Before They Met

Ikechukwu Okonkwo, well known as Cross, the former Big Brother Naija star, has talked about the spiritual experience that made him believe his fiancée was meant to be his wife.

The reality TV personality revealed that he met his partner through a spiritual revelation rather than on earth in an exclusive interview with Saturday Beats.

“When I had that encounter with God last year, I also saw her spirit in heaven,” Cross said. “She winked at me. That’s how I knew she was the one. It’s something God has ordained. It’s all about timing.”

“I met her in church,” he recalled with a smile. “She was standing outside after service, waiting for her sisters and cousins. I was in the car with my sister and a friend, and I pointed her out, saying, ‘Look at that tall girl, she’s so beautiful.’ My friend told me to go say hi. I was shy, but I went over. We exchanged pleasantries and numbers — and here we are today.”

“She’s sweet, calm, and calculated. She loves God deeply — she can pray and fast. That’s a quality I’ve always wanted in a woman. I know if anything ever happens, she’ll take care of my home and family. She’s just like my mum — capable, caring, and beautiful inside and out.”

The former reality star described his relationship as one built on faith, patience, and spiritual grounding — lessons he said he had to learn the hard way.

“In my past relationships, communication and patience were big problems. I didn’t understand God’s principles then like I do now. But this time, everything feels different. There’s peace. God is at the centre.”

“When I was younger, I saw myself at 40, 50, and 60 in a dream. I saw the woman I would marry — tall, light-skinned, beautiful. I didn’t see her face clearly, but my fiancée embodies all those features. When I met her, my spirit felt at peace.”

For Cross, that peace is proof enough. He believes his love story is not just romantic — it’s a testament to divine timing.

“God showed me who she was long before I met her,” he said simply. “When you allow God to lead, He writes the best love stories.”
