On Wednesday, July 16, 2025, the controversial socialite shared that his girlfriend of over seven years, Maria, had broken up with him while he was at the airport preparing to visit her in Romania.
According to Kofi Gabs, he had earlier visited his girlfriend in March 2025 in her home country to spend time with her and celebrate her birthday as a couple.
He noted that his now ex-girlfriend, Maria, later invited him to travel from the Netherlands to Romania to celebrate his birthday.
He said:
"I went to visit my girlfriend Maria in March to celebrate her birthday with her. She later invited me to travel to Romania and celebrate my birthday with her. So I informed her that I will come. It was something we had planned."
Kofi Gabs noted that he had packed his belongings and had gone to the airport to catch a flight to Romania to spend time with Maria. However, she called him on the phone to break up with him at the airport.

He said he was not interested in returning home from the airport to cry about the breakup, so he went ahead to book a flight to New York City to go and have fun.
He said:
"I got to the airport and received a phone call from Maria, who told me that she had broken up with me and that I won't be able to locate her when I arrive in Romania. At that moment, I remembered that I have a Dutch passport that is like a PHD, so I can go anywhere I want anytime."
"As I am at the airport right now, I am not going home to feel sorry for myself, so I went to KLM and asked if they had any available flights to New York today, and they confirmed that they had one that would take off at 1:35, so I have bought my ticket."
Kofi Gabs, who once sparked a big online debate about the relevance of a Dutch passport over a PHD, said his passport had helped him avoid being brokenhearted over his girlfriend, Maria's decision to end their romantic relationship.
He reiterated his controversial stance, stating that his trip to New York City was easy and that he did not have to visit the American Embassy in the Netherlands to secure a visa before travelling.
