Blessing CEO apologises, speaks on pain of losing son

Controversial relationship therapist and social media personality Blessing Okoro, known as Blessing CEO, apologized for her past comments, expressing remorse and readiness to make amends. In a video posted on her Instagram account, Okoro revealed she was grieving the recent loss of her nine-year-old son Bryan, who died in a hospital on June 8, 2026, while she was in custody for separate fraud allegations.

Bryan had suffered from chronic asthma and had experienced recurrent health issues since childhood. In the video, Okoro expressed regret for not being able to be with her son before his death and admitted that she was confused and emotionally overwhelmed. She acknowledged that her words might have hurt others and that she had spoken about experiences she had not personally encountered.

Okoro emphasized that talk was not enough, but actions spoke louder, and she was paying for her mistakes with her tears. She described herself as broken and exhausted, appealing for forgiveness from those who had been affected by her comments. Okoro also apologized to those who had continued to support her and those who had distanced themselves because of her actions.

She addressed her late son, Bryan, calling him Doom Doom, expressing her deep sorrow and promising to correct her mistakes. Okoro mentioned the pain her family, particularly her grandmother, had been going through, and revealed her desire to collect Bryan's belongings as part of accepting his death. Despite the emotional turmoil, Okoro prayed for divine intervention as she struggled to cope with the loss.
