Tumi, the daughter of musicians Nameless and Wahu Kagwi, made the remarks during a visit to Jakes' workplace, where he was hosting alongside his co-presenter Chunkz.
Chunkz used the opportunity to question the pair about their relationship after noting that their frequent appearances together online had led many people to believe they were dating.

The conversation continued after Chunkz pointed out that Tumi and Jakes had been spotted holding hands. He noted, however, that he had never seen the two kiss and challenged them to settle the speculation during the radio show.

Tumi added that they also cook together at Jakes' home, praising his cooking skills. The pair's social media interactions have also fueled speculation about their relationship, including a customized Manchester United jersey Tumi gifted Jakes for his birthday with the words "I Love My Girlfriend" on the back.
