Alesha and Azuka met while she was on tour and he was a dancer on her tour. Azuka expressed interest in Alesha, but she initially played hard to get. Alesha realized that Azuka was the one who supported her when she broke her foot. Dixon revealed in an interview with Jonathan Ross:
“I was playing hard to get it for about a year. And then I had surgery on my foot and I couldn’t walk and literally slept on the floor taking care of myself every day. She just looked at him thinking, ‘That’s for better or worse, isn’t it?’ She saw me in a state, I was sleeping on the floor because I was on the sofa, I couldn’t even go up the stairs. If she can take me to the bathroom, then she’s a keeper.
Azuka and Alesha reportedly got married in secret in 2017. Ononye is a British-born Nigerian who has been in the entertainment industry for over 15 years. She has worked as a dancer, writer, creative director, voice artist, choreographer, and actress. Azuka has a website in which he describes himself as:
“…a multifaceted artist focused on pushing his limits and all limits, Azuka blends his knowledge, style and experience across the board with his contagiously smooth, positive energy that brings any project he’s involved with to life.”
Alesha knew she wanted children when she met Azuka.
Alesha had little interest in having children before meeting Ononye. She had been in several toxic relationships and she didn’t think it was right for her to have children with her previous partners. However, Dixon felt that she could trust Ononye. She stated in a podcast interview with Giovanna Fletcher:
“We met 10 years ago, and he was the first person I ever met who knew we could have children together because of our values, our morals, our aligned thinking… The idea of having children with someone who could do something toxic or show them something that I saw as a child scared me more than anything in the world…”
The couple’s first daughter, Azure Sienna Ononye, was born in October 2013. In May 2019, Alesha revealed that she was expecting another baby when she showed off her baby during an episode of Britain’s Got Talent. She later stated on the show that she was happy to have a second child. The couple revealed in October 2019 that Anaya Safiya came into the world on August 20, 2019.
Alesha posted a photo of her daughter and added the caption: “7 weeks ago this little angle came into our lives! As I celebrate my birthday today, I feel like the luckiest girl on the planet.”

“I didn’t eat for a few days. I only remember sitting on the floor of my house. You ask those questions: Why? What have I done wrong?”
Dixon has recovered from her traumatic experience and is now enjoying life with her loving husband. She stated in an interview with Piers Morgan:
“I am authentically myself when I am with him. I don’t have to be anything other than what I am and it’s a great feeling when you can be yourself with someone. And it’s like being with my best friend every day.”
