Stefanie Kim Ladewig, the eight-month pregnant partner of Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen, has escaped injury following a three-vehicle crash in Istanbul, Türkiye.

According to reports by Türkiye Today and the Demirören News Agency, the accident occurred at about 3:10 p.m. on Tuesday in the Mithatpasa neighbourhood of Kemerburgaz, within Istanbul’s Eyupsultan district.

Ladewig, a model, was reportedly driving an SUV when she approached a bend and collided with a light commercial vehicle driven by a person identified as Paris T.

The impact reportedly caused her vehicle to veer into another SUV travelling in the opposite direction, resulting in a collision involving three vehicles.
