In response, Nedu narrated his side of the saga and displayed a DNA result that showed that their first child wasn’t his.
Nedu’s ex-wife also in her defence stated that contrary to what most people think ended her marriage, miscommuncation and domestic violence were the reasons her marriage ended.
Also, she stated “if I knew that my son, my first child was not for him I wouldn’t have gotten married to him. I can’t deliberately take another person’s son and give to him”.
Lots of fans and celebrities have frowned at her response and disappointed in her.
Another two highly respected and celebrated couples that also made headlines in the last 2 months are Anita and Paul Okoye, then Tuface and Annie Idibia.
This story won’t be complete without talking about their marriage crisis that came as a huge shock to lots of fans that loved and admired their union.
First it was Anita Okoye, wife of popular singer Paul Okoye a.k.a. Rude Boy, who all of a sudden filed for divorce from U.S. to the surprise of her husband in Nigeria.
She requested the dissolution of her marriage with Paul Okoye, and the court document went viral on social media. She cited, “irreconciliable differences” as the reasons for filing a divorce.
The couple who got married in 2014 after seven years of dating is blessed with 3 kids.
Another video went viral few days ago where Paul Okoye paid his kids and wife a visit in the U.S. and hopefully, they will get everything sorted peacefully.
Then finally, the living legend Tuface Idibia whom many admire his love for Annie Idibia on social media surprised lots of fans.
Annie Idibia slammed husband, Tuface Idibia, his family and his children’s mothers as she accused him of sleeping under the same roof with Pero. According to her “your babay mamas constantly use your children as an excuse for all sorts of rubbish”.
She added that she has been patient and has made many sacrifices for Tuface and his kids but she’s no fool.
She said Tuface’s family never liked her from day one, no matter how hard she tried and called out Tuface’s brother for housing Tuface, his kids and Pero under the same roof.
And she concluded that their action is unacceptable.
Tuface and Annie Idibia’s marriage crisis tends to be getting deeper daily, as just few days ago, an audio was leaked where Annie was crying bitterly that Tuface sneaked to America with the help of his team without letting her know and she is going to scatter everything. We only pray they get to resolve their issues amicably, most especially as their immediate family are both involved in the crisis.
