Maduka Okoye’s baby mama Jelicia Westhoff doubles down on dragging people who date fathers that don’t take care of their kids days after the soccer player reignited romance rumors with Cardi B.
The estranged ex took to Instagram Stories with her now-deleted Threads post. “Dating a man, that doesnt take care of his kids, thats a character problem, babe,” she wrote.
Oop! Tell us how you really feel, Jelicia!
The statement is particularly spicy because it’s suspected shade about the FIFA fine footballer reuniting with Cardi during Milan Fashion Week. As BOSSIP previously reported, Maduka and Cardi were spotted out together in a club on Tuesday, Sept. 22 having a viral flirty face-to-face moment.
Maduka was an official representative for Italy’s Udinese Calcio club to model their new third kit… and conveniently party with Cardi.
Cardi was first spotted with the gorgeous goalkeeper in July at Paris Fashion Week. They appeared to hit it off after sitting next to each other at the front row of the Jean Paul Gaultier fashion show.
Cameras also caught them getting cozy on a restaurant balcony together.
Later that month, they popped out together again on what looked like a date night in Venice.
Fans were rooting for the cute coupledom… until Jelicia put her baby daddy on blast.
Check out the previous cheating and deadbeat dad allegations after the flip.
Maduka Okoye’s Ex Jelicia Westhoff Airs Made Similar Claims Before
When Maduka Okoye first went super viral among non-soccer fans ahead of the 2026 World Cup, Jelicia Westhoff’s allegations against him resurfaced. Shortly after he caused a commotion with Cardi, the mother of Maduka’s 3-year-old son spoke out about his alleged mistreatment of them both.
In the lengthy Instagram Stories post, the model claimed her side of the story was more than a “bitter baby mama.”
“Instead of loving us, you [beat] me! Cheated on me with men and women,” she said calling him a “demon who tried to destroy my life.”
“You don’t take care of your 1 and only son because I don’t want to be with you. I will never forgive you,” she continued.
According to The Neighborhood Talk, she continued in a follow-up post that he doesn’t call or see his son because the soccer star is too “busy punishing his mother and being a baddie on social media.”
She seemingly addressed the “gold digger” narrative, stating that she only spent money on Maduka when she was “broke,” but also nursed him back to health when he was alone, injured, and recovering from an operation.
Some fans questioned the timing of the latest viral comment, but others claimed her allegations are nothing new.
After Jelicia and another ex of Maduka’s entered the chat, Cardi considered that she may need to “pick better men.” When asked about the rumored romance as the cover star for Vogue Arabia in September, Cardi claimed he was “really sweet” and that she hopes to see “more” of Maduka in the future.
Meanwhile, the “Bodega Baddie” star was busy slaying in Milan.
