MC Fish's New Lover Speaks Out Against Husband Snatching Allegations
In a bold move to counter widespread online accusations, the new romantic partner of popular hype man MC Fish, whose real name is Michael Olagunju, has broken her silence regarding claims that she was responsible for the collapse of his marriage to actress Anita Joseph. The allegations emerged after a romantic video of the duo went viral in February 2026, sparking intense backlash from social media users who labeled her a "husband snatcher" and "gold digger."
Clarifying the Timeline of Their Relationship
The lady, who has chosen to remain unidentified, firmly denied any involvement in ending MC Fish's marriage, stating that she met him when he was already single. She emphasized that the narrative being pushed online is false and unfair, explaining that both she and MC Fish had past relationships where they felt unappreciated. According to her, finding each other happened at the right time in their lives, and she described their connection as beautiful and intentional.
She asserted, "I'm not going to encourage it with silence and allow the wrong narrative fly. I didn't end anybody's marriage, and I can never do that. I met him single, and we've both dated people in the past that did not appreciate us in our lives." She further praised MC Fish as an intentional man who cares for her deeply, providing and supporting her out of choice, not because she is taking advantage of him.
Social Media Reactions Remain Skeptical
Despite her clarification, many online users expressed skepticism and dismissed the need for a public explanation. Reactions gathered from social media platforms included comments such as:
- honeystore.ng said, "He told you his ex didn't appreciate him? Okay oooo, you don't know Adam."
- golddesire_oma opined, "I keep asking myself why situations like this need a public explanation."
- eles_home_appliances stated, "Me wey Sabi shame, any relationship or marriage wey go make me set camera dey explain myself abeg I no want."

- ifeoma_annie wrote, "Girl, nobody cares. Enjoy your new man. Both of you came from broken relationships and found yourselves. Good. Be happy. Just don't come later to reverse the narrative. We keep evidence o."
Background on Anita Joseph's Post-Split Experience
The controversy stems from the confirmed end of Anita Joseph's five-year marriage to MC Fish in December 2025. Shortly after announcing the split, Anita revealed that her Instagram direct messages were flooded with men attempting to replace her ex-husband. She clarified that while she is now single, she is not actively seeking a new relationship and urged interested parties to stop overwhelming her inbox to prevent her phone from "crashing."
This development highlights the ongoing public fascination with celebrity relationships in Nigeria's entertainment industry, where personal matters often become subjects of intense scrutiny and debate on social media platforms.
