At the moment, Ihim works for a global financial technology company.

In addition to this, she is also a successful businesswoman who has her own champagne line. She also has a non-profit that goes by the name of, A Life of Lux.

Ihim has also played a pivotal role in developing a dating app for Africans called Hello Africa.

Initially, many viewers thought that Osefo and Ihim would be great friends in the show due to their Nigerian roots but that's not the scenario currently.

In an episode of the show, Ihim stated that Osefo's mother allegedly used "witchcraft" against her.

The two of them continued to argue for a while before Wendy stated that her mother was a Christian and not a voodoo witch or priestess.

Soon after the episode aired, Osefo put out a tweet shared by a user on X formerly known as Twitter highlighting the potential harm of such accusations within Nigerian society.

The post read, "As a Nigerian I can say being accused of having a shrine and practicing voodoo is one of the biggest insults and criminal implications someone can accuse you of. People in Nigeria are literally stoned to death or jailed over these things.”
