Nollywood actress Anita Joseph has publicly confirmed the collapse of her marriage to comedian Fisayo Michael, popularly known as MC Fish. This confirmation comes weeks after intense speculation and rumours about a crisis in their union began circulating online.
Official Confirmation on Social Media
On Monday, December 22, 2025, Anita Joseph made the definitive announcement on her Instagram page. She shared a reflective message alongside photographs, speaking candidly about a period of emotional turmoil.
In her post, the actress described facing an unexpected test of strength within her marriage. She wrote about navigating a season marked by deep reflection, significant pain, and the ongoing process of healing.
"Life has a way of testing our strength in ways we never expect, especially in marriage," Joseph stated. "Lately, I've been walking through a season of deep reflection, pain and healing."
She concluded the emotional disclosure with a clear and direct statement: "Calling a spade a spade, my marriage is over. ogbugianyi! Omere ka Anyi Mara ihe!. Shalom!!"
Weeks of Speculation and Earlier Denials
The official confirmation follows weeks of unverified reports and public curiosity. Rumours of a marital split first gained traction online in late November and early December.
At that time, various allegations surfaced, including claims of infidelity, substance abuse, and even domestic violence against the actress. Some reports also alleged that Joseph had suffered two pregnancy losses during this difficult period.
Neither Anita Joseph nor MC Fish addressed these specific allegations publicly. However, on Monday, December 1, Joseph posted a message on Instagram reacting to the growing speculation.
In that earlier post, she assured her followers of her wellbeing but stopped short of confirming any separation. "Mother Hen is doing well. I will tell my story when I deem fit. Shallom!" she wrote, indicating she would speak in her own time.
A Public Relationship Comes to an End
Anita Joseph and MC Fish tied the knot in a well-publicized ceremony in February 2020. Their relationship consistently attracted public attention due to their active and open presence on social media platforms.
Their interactions often made headlines, such as in April 2021, when MC Fish sparked mixed reactions by stating that washing his wife's underwear was one of his ways of expressing love.
As of the time of this report, MC Fish has not issued any public statement in response to Joseph's confirmation or the earlier rumours surrounding their marriage. The couple's split marks the end of a nearly five-year union that played out significantly in the public eye.
