Maduka Okoye‘s ex Jelicia Westhoff is accusing the Nigerian soccer star of being an absentee father to their son after he was seen enjoying dinner with Cardi B.
“Imagine I shut my f**king mouth, Lied about what YOU did to me, so you Could continue YOUR career and all you do is embarrasing [sic] US,” Westhoff, 30, wrote via her Instagram Story in a since-deleted post, according to a screenshot obtained by Page Six on Monday, July 20. “YOU make me look like I’m a bitter Baby mother when I helped you when NO one was there for you!!!”
The model accused the professional soccer player, 26, of attempting to “destroy” her life and of not being there for their 3-year-old son, Isaiah.
“YOU DONT TAKE CARE OF YOUR 1 and only SON!” she alleged. “BECAUSE I DONT WANT TO BE WITH YOU I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU.”
Westhoff claimed that she attempted to be “nice and peaceful” with Okoye for the sake of their child and their coparenting relationship.
“I tried for my son to be a good coparent to erase your wrongdoings because you made me believe that I was the problem,” she alleged.
Westhoff accused Okoye of not visiting or calling Isaiah when he was in the hospital last year.
“MY son got hospitalized 4 times, ON the intensive care, with an ambulance!!!” she claimed. “His FATHER Didnt even [come]! [tell me] Which father doesn’t [go] to his child when your child is fighting for his life? Explain this to me?? Cause you Cant be with the mother???”
Us has reached out to Okoye’s spokesperson for comment regarding his ex’s claims.
Westhoff’s allegations come on the heels of her ex’s very public outing with Cardi, 33. According to a video obtained by TMZ, Okoye and Cardi were spotted together — and amongst a group of others — in Italy, dining at a restaurant at the St. Regis. In the clip, the rapper and Okoye were seated next to each other and had a conversation.
This isn’t the first time Okoye and Cardi were seen together. Earlier this year, the pair sat next to each other at the Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture show for Paris Fashion Week.
Cardi was last linked to football player Stefon Diggs. The “WAP” musician and Diggs, 32, have been dating on-and-off since 2024. The pair share a son whom they welcomed together in November 2025. Us previously reported that Diggs and Cardi broke up back in February before Super Bowl LX. However, they were seen together again in May, and a source told Us at the time that they were “giving things another shot.” (Cardi B also shares three children with ex Offset.)
