We are thrilled to announce ABC’s The Bachelorette stars, Charity Lawson and Dotun Olubeko, as our Issue 32 cover couple!
Charity Lawson and Dotun Olubeko began their fairytale romance on Season 20 of ABC’s hit reality TV show, The Bachelorette.
Tuning in every Monday, Bachelor Nation watched their connection blossom into real love, and on April 30th, 2023, Dotun proposed to Charity in Fiji. She exclaimed “Yes!” and Dotun happily accepted her final rose.
This year, on April 30th, 2024, Charity and Dotun celebrated their one-year anniversary – a rare milestone in the franchise’s history, and are excitedly looking ahead to their nuptials.
In honor of their anniversary, we invited Charity and Dotun to the luxurious Spice Island Beach Resort in Grenada for a top-secret MunaLuchi cover shoot.
Under the creative direction of Jacqueline Nwobu, the Muna Team created magic from sunrise to sunset. The couple posed before vibrant tropical backdrops and exchanged laughs and steamy glances in every frame.
Gani Shittu of House of Simiraj carefully curated Charity’s looks which consisted of modern and chic bridal-inspired attire, sexy swimwear, and a Nigerian traditional gown (custom-made and shipped straight from Nigeria!).
Dotun also wore a custom agbádá from Nigeria. His sleek suiting looks were designed, tailored, and styled by Ilbert Sanchez of Garçon Couture.
With styling assistance from Rachelle Teart, luxe hairstyles created by Tinika Sadiku, and glam makeup by Felicia Graham Beauty, the couple was gorgeous and photo-ready at all times.
Shagari Gerard Photography and Collins Camp of Studio87Media expertly snapped all the details with Mike Okafor Films and Roseline Conteh capturing video and BTS content.
As we celebrate Charity and Dotun’s anniversary and the newest season of The Bachelorette (following Jenn Tran’s journey to find love), we invite you to get to know the future Mr. & Mrs. Olubeko.
In their upcoming exclusive interview with MunaLuchi, Charity and Dotun share details on everything from their fateful beginnings on The Bachelorette (which almost didn’t happen!), to navigating cultural differences and their future wedding plans.
For now, please enjoy our lovely Issue 32 cover (captured by our MunaCoterie member Shagari Gerard Photography) at Grenada’s gorgeous Spice Island Beach Resort.
