Davido features Chioma in “Already Falling” video
The Afrobeats star celebrates his wife in a romantic new visual, recreating a proposal scene and revisiting the love-story theme that defined his 2018 hit ‘Assurance’.


Nigerian music superstar Davido has featured his wife, Chioma Adeleke, in the official music video for his love song “Already Falling,” giving fans another cinematic look at their relationship.
Released on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, the video places the couple at the centre of a romantic storyline filled with grand settings, coordinated outfits and affectionate moments. One of its standout scenes shows Davido getting down on one knee and presenting Chioma with a ring beside a lake, recreating a marriage proposal despite the couple already being married.
The singer announced the release on social media with the message, “Already Falling. From us to you. Enjoy,” presenting the visual as a gift to fans who have followed the couple’s relationship over the years.
A cinematic celebration of love
Directed by Meji Alabi, the video uses a luxurious French setting to build its romantic atmosphere. Davido arrives at a château in a horse-drawn carriage before the story moves through elegant interiors and outdoor scenes.
Chioma appears in a striking gold-and-black gown, while Davido wears outfits coordinated with the video's sophisticated, period-inspired aesthetic. The production combines European château scenery with elements of Nigerian culture, creating a visual style that balances grandeur with personal intimacy.
The video also shifts from elaborate scenes to more relaxed moments between the couple. In one sequence, Chioma drives a red convertible as Davido sits beside her and performs the song. Their affectionate interactions help keep the focus on the relationship rather than turning the production into a spectacle of luxury alone.
The proposal scene provides the video's emotional climax. By kneeling before Chioma and presenting a ring, Davido recreates the symbolism of a proposal for the camera. The moment is a romantic visual device, not an announcement of a new engagement: the couple are already husband and wife.
A return to the ‘Assurance’ love story
For longtime fans, Chioma's appearance recalls “Assurance,” Davido's 2018 hit dedicated to her during their dating years. She featured in that video's romantic storyline, making the song an important part of the couple's public love story.
Chioma also appeared in the visuals for “1 Milli,” released in 2020 with a wedding-inspired theme. “Already Falling” continues that creative pattern, with Davido once again drawing inspiration from his relationship for his music and visuals.
The couple's relationship has continued to attract public interest through major personal milestones, including their traditional wedding in Lagos in June 2024 and their white wedding in Miami in August 2024. Their marriage has remained a familiar subject for fans who follow Davido's music and personal life.
‘Already Falling’ and the ORIADÉ album
“Already Falling” features on Davido's sixth studio album, ORIADÉ, released on July 31, 2026. The song blends English, Yoruba and Nigerian Pidgin in a playful declaration of affection. Its romantic theme is reflected in the video, which builds towards the lakeside proposal scene.
The track was produced by Classic and Sensei, with Peruzzi contributing background vocals. Reports have also noted a musical reference to Elvis Presley's “Can't Help Falling in Love,” connecting the song to a familiar tradition of love songs.
By featuring Chioma so prominently, Davido makes the video feel personal as well as polished. Rather than casting another performer as his romantic partner, he places his wife in the story that the song tells.
Fans revisit the couple's romance
Chioma's appearance and the recreated proposal have become key talking points in coverage of the release, with entertainment outlets reporting enthusiastic reactions to the couple's on-screen chemistry. The video also gives fans a new chapter in a love story that has featured in Davido's music for years.
With its romantic imagery, elaborate setting and familiar personal connection, “Already Falling” continues Davido's practice of bringing his relationship into his artistic world. For fans of “Assurance” and “1 Milli,” the new visual offers another opportunity to see how that story has evolved.
