Nigerian singer Oludipe Oluwasanmi David, popularly known by his stage name Spyro, has announced his engagement to Lagos-based makeup artist Janet Atom, marking a new chapter in his personal life.
The Who Is Your Guy hitmaker disclosed the engagement on Instagram on Friday, September 19, sharing photos of the intimate proposal. The pictures showed Janet wearing her sparkling engagement ring while the couple posed against a backdrop of roses and the glowing inscription, Will You Marry Me?
Spyro revealed that he first met Janet in the early hours of March 30, 2024, at a Lagos nightclub. “The moment I saw her at exactly 2:48 a.m., my world paused,” he said, adding that she has been “the answer to my prayers.” He also expressed gratitude for her acceptance of his proposal, stating: “I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with her.”
Born in Lagos, Spyro rose to prominence in 2022 with the chart-topping single Who Is Your Guy, which earned widespread acclaim and later featured a remix with Tiwa Savage. He has since released other popular tracks including Billing, Funke, For You, and No Gree For Anybody, solidifying his place among Nigeria’s contemporary music stars.
Aside from music, Spyro has often shared his personal convictions with fans. Earlier in 2024, he disclosed that he had embraced celibacy, describing premarital intimacy as a source of unease for him. The announcement of his engagement has therefore drawn wide reactions from fans, who congratulated him for finding love and commitment.
Spyro’s fiancée, Janet Atom, is a professional makeup artist and entrepreneur who runs the beauty brand Beatzby_Nj. The couple has kept their relationship largely private until now, making the proposal a surprise to many of the singer’s followers.
With wedding plans yet to be announced, Spyro’s fans and colleagues in the music industry have continued to flood his social media with congratulatory messages, celebrating what many describe as a defining moment in his life and career.
