Social media users have discovered an old post by businessman Olakunle Churchill celebrating his 8th wedding anniversary with his partner, Nollywood actress Rosy Meurer, following his recent statement that they were never legally married. Churchill had earlier claimed that what the public referred to as a marriage was merely an introduction ceremony, rendering divorce discussions irrelevant. He also dismissed suggestions that Rosy supported him during his public dispute with ex-wife Tonto Dikeh over custody of their son, King Andre, stating that another woman could have filled that role.
Resurfaced Anniversary Post
After Churchill's denial, internet users retrieved his old social media post where he shared a romantic photo with Rosy and wrote about their 8th wedding anniversary. The caption read: "@olakunlechurchill and @rosymeurer celebrate 8th wedding anniversary." Another post included the line: "I would remove all seeds from watermelon for you !! @rosymeurer." These resurfaced posts have reignited debates about the true nature of their relationship.
Public Reactions
Many Nigerians expressed surprise at the contradiction. One user commented: "So Rosy Meurer and Churchill are not legally married, but they were busy celebrating their anniversary... So she's just an ordinary baby mama wow." Another wrote: "To pepper is ex tonto na what else?? Men will shame you!!!!" Some defended Churchill, noting that an introduction ceremony without a court marriage might lack legal standing. Others criticized the couple for misleading the public.
Background on the Controversy
Churchill had earlier addressed rumors of a marriage crisis, denying that Rosy snatched him from Tonto Dikeh. He stated that the two women were never friends and accused Rosy of yielding to online pressure. He affirmed his commitment to his son, King Andre, whenever needed.
