Nigerian reality television personality and former Big Brother Naija contestant Angel Smith has announced an upcoming wedding ceremony with her partner, Tumininu, specifying an all-black dress code for guests.
Smith shared the official wedding invitation via her Snapchat account on Wednesday, which included the directive: “A gentle reminder, this is an all black wedding. Please wear black to celebrate in style with us.” The announcement formalizes a relationship she first made public in 2025 through shared social media posts.
This event follows a civil ceremony the couple reportedly held in the United States in January 2026. The subsequent celebratory gathering in Nigeria will adhere to the distinct all-black attire request.
Smith’s public relationship with Tumininu emerged after her high-profile separation from fellow Big Brother Naija star Soma Anyama. The two began their relationship during the show’s 2023 ‘All Stars’ season and ended it in 2024.
The announcement comes within a specific socio-legal context, as Nigeria’s Same-Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act criminalizes same-sex unions and public displays of affection. Despite this, public figures occasionally face scrutiny when their personal lives become visible on social media platforms.
Smith, who gained fame through her appearance on the widely watched Big Brother Naija franchise, continues to be a subject of public interest. The couple has not disclosed the date or venue for the forthcoming ceremony. The event is noted as a private celebration among friends and family, marked by its specified monochrome attire request.
