Coco Blasian, a Ghanaian-Japanese artiste and beauty queen Coco has said in a recent interview on Hitz FM that she is open to marrying a Ghanaian man.
This follows the breakdown of her first marriage to a Nigerian.
Speaking on Daybreak Hitz with Doreen Avio on Friday 27th March 2026, she indicated her preference for Ghanaian men, although she has not yet had the chance to date one since arriving in the country.
The singer explained that she got married to her ex-husband while he was still in jail and supported him throughout the time he was doing his sentence in Japan.
“It was a really difficult marriage and during the time we were dating he got missing. I was looking for him and texting him but he wasn’t answering. His friends started texting me but I didn’t know where he was,” she said.
She added that she later found out that he was in jail but he deceived her that he was innocent of the crime hence she threw all her efforts behind him and supported him .
Coco Blasian further noted that she was naive and got married to him while he was in jail out of love without any consent from her family.
“I tried to help him and I loved him so I married him in jail. I didn’t tell my parents about that.
When he came out i thought he was going to appreciate me for what I’ve done. I was paying for his rent, I was cleaning his house, I was always sending messages to the jail, but he got out of jail and told me that I didn’t mean anything to him and that other ladies could have helped him,” Coco said.
In the meantime, Coco Blasian is set to roll out a breast cancer awareness campaign in Ghana in October 2026. As part of the initiative, she has recorded a song with award-winning instrumentalist and composer Owura. This is expected to be released ahead of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
She gained international attention after winning the Miss Europe Continental U.K Beauty Pageant in 2025, a platform she has since used to support social causes alongside her music career.
Currently in Ghana, Coco Blasian is visiting her father while reconnecting with her roots and experiencing the country’s culture, food and people.
Coco Blasian is a multicultural artiste born in Fukuoka, Japan, to a Japanese mother and a Ghanaian father.
She did not grow up in one country alone. Her early life spans Japan, the United States and Ghana, which exposed her to different cultures from a young age and shaped both her identity and sound.
Musically, she blends Afrobeats, R&B, hip-hop and soul, drawing from both her African and Asian roots. Her style has been described as a fusion that reflects her “Blasian” identity, with themes often centred on love and personal experiences.
