A few days later, the musician came out guns blazing while addressing criticis who claimed that their relationship won’t last.
“Ni mipango ya Mungu , yeye ndio anajua. That is not in our place, and I just hope people heal and stop projecting their insecurities on other people who have a pure hearts
“You can’t be okay if people talk bad about the person you like. People need to understand everyone has an ex, and after break up, they move on,” Jovial said.
The musician also addressed claims that she was financially supporting her new man following claims that he only dates financially stable women to support his lifestyle.
However, in an Instagram live session, Jovial set the record straight, describing how he pampers her, pays her bills and treats her like a queen.
“Sometimes he spoils me so much that I feel guilty, but I appreciate his love and support… you are supposed to be treated like a baby girl as a matter of fact; a queen,” she said.
Mike was previously dating The Messy In Between (TMI) podcast co-host, Lydia KM, although details of their break-up remainunknown.
However, when asked if she was aware about the same, Jovial denied knowing Lydia.
“When we met, I didn’t know about his past relationship, and I don’t want to know who he was dating because I wasn’t there
“For now, I’m focusing on the current, and because I’m in charge, that is all that matters,” she said in an interview with TUKO.

Jovial’s past relationship
In a past interview, Jovial explained that she split up with her baby daddy because he wanted her to stay at home and be a housewife.
She mentioned that she refused to be a housewife to a man who did not have a future and instead focused on building her music career.
The musician noted that women should never settle for less than they deserve and should always strive to achieve their goals.
“And one last thing guys, there is no stingy man… if a man isn’t spending money on you, you are not the person to be spent on,” Jovial said.
