Simi's Management Firmly Denies Divorce Speculation, Exposes Fabricated Court Papers
The management team of acclaimed Nigerian singer Simi has issued a strong rebuttal to widespread online reports suggesting her marriage to fellow music star Adekunle Gold is headed for divorce. In an official statement addressing the controversy, Simi's manager, Vincent, categorically labeled a circulating document—purportedly a divorce petition filed by Adekunle Gold—as entirely fake and fabricated.
Viral Document Contains Glaring Legal Inconsistencies
A legal-looking document dated February 28, 2026, recently surfaced on social media platforms, claiming the marriage between the two beloved music artists had "irretrievably broken down." The document further alleged prolonged emotional, financial, and professional control while seeking dissolution of the marriage and joint custody of their child. Some online reports even suggested the petition had been filed at the High Court of Lagos State, adding credibility to the swirling speculation.
However, Vincent has pointed out multiple glaring errors that expose the document's fraudulent nature. "It's fake and fabricated," he stated emphatically. "First, stage names are not tenable in any court of justice worldwide as indicated in the document. Even the suit number on the document is backdated to 2024 (SUIT NO HCL/FC/2024/0178)." According to Vincent, these technical legal inconsistencies clearly demonstrate that the document did not originate from any legitimate court process.
Rumors Intensified by Resurfaced Social Media Posts
The divorce claims reportedly gained momentum after old social media posts attributed to Simi resurfaced online, with some users interpreting them as subtle hints of marital tension. Additionally, Adekunle Gold's recent return to social media following a brief hiatus fueled further conversations, as observers began reading deeper meanings into his posts, amplifying the narrative.
Despite the heated online debates among fans of the celebrity couple, neither Simi nor Adekunle Gold has personally addressed the rumors publicly. The couple, who recently celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary and reportedly welcomed twins earlier this year, have maintained their privacy throughout this episode.
NAPTIP Investigation Adds Another Layer to the Controversy
In a related development, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) has initiated a probe into old tweets linked to Simi from her time working at her mother's daycare years ago. As these posts gained traction online, some netizens called for authorities to examine the matter more closely. NAPTIP responded with a statement affirming its commitment to investigating credible reports concerning alleged misconduct in daycare settings.
This controversy follows previous reports where Simi criticized men who complain about not receiving attention after their wives give birth. In a circulating video, she emphasized that people should focus on the mother's recovery and the baby's well-being, noting that many women endure painful procedures, swelling, exhaustion, and sleepless nights post-childbirth.
The management's clarification comes after days of intense online speculation, effectively putting to rest the unfounded divorce rumors while highlighting the dangers of fabricated documents circulating on social media.
