The ex-WAG and daughter of Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola showcased her allegiance by donning England's O2 jersey and attending the match at Twickenham Stadium just hours before the Super Eagles of Nigeria take on Ivory Coast in the finals of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Despite Nigeria's impending AFCON 2023 finals clash against Côte d’Ivoire, DJ Cuppy's attention was firmly fixed on supporting England in the rugby championship.
