Isabella Idibia, the first daughter of iconic Nigerian singer 2Baba and actress Annie Idibia, has captivated social media with a series of stunning vacation photos. The young woman shared these moments from Durban, South Africa, on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, providing a glimpse into her family getaway.
Sunshine in Durban Amidst Family Turmoil
The timing of Isabella's online return is particularly notable, as it comes against the backdrop of ongoing public discourse surrounding her father's marital drama with his new wife, Natasha Osawaru. In her Instagram post, Isabella showcased herself posing in various stylish outfits, clearly enjoying the South African locale. She captioned the serene images with a simple yet powerful message: "Durban, you owe me nothing."
Her mother, Annie Idibia, was quick to shower her with praise in the comments, writing affectionately, "My sunshine!!! Shine bright like d diamond u R! #raregem." This public display of mother-daughter bonding highlights a united front as the family navigates a challenging period.
A Family Vacation or a Working Trip?
This is not the first glimpse of the Idibia family's South African sojourn. Legit.ng had previously reported that Annie herself posted images on Instagram featuring their two daughters, Isabella and Olivia, alongside her mother. In her caption, Annie described her daughters as her dearest friends and praised her mother as the best grandmother. Interestingly, she noted that while her daughters felt they were on a proper vacation, for her, the trip involved a significant amount of work.
The simultaneous vacations in South Africa by both 2Baba's daughter and his estranged wife have fueled conversations online, with many interpreting it as a deliberate move to find peace and distance from the ongoing saga.
Netizens React: From Praise to Pointed Comments
The reaction to Isabella's pictures was swift and varied, flooding her comment section. While many admirers gushed over her remarkable transformation from a young girl into a beautiful woman, others used the opportunity to make pointed remarks about her father's personal life.

One observant user, exnelofficial, pointed out a telling detail: "Na only this post 2baba never like, aside this, 2baba liked every gaddem post of Isabella." This observation sparked further discussion about the singer's current relationship with his eldest daughter.
Amidst the online chatter, the resurfacing of an old video featuring 2Baba's mother has added another layer to the narrative. In the footage from February, the singer's mother was seen pleading with Natasha Osawaru, who is an Edo State lawmaker, to "free her son." Her current silence on the latest developments in her son's marriage has itself become a topic of conversation among netizens.
