Nollywood Marriage Scandal Erupts on Social Media
The Instagram page of Iyanaladuke, wife of popular Nollywood actor Femi Adebayo, became the center of a dramatic confrontation on Sunday, November 30, 2025. What began as celebratory family posts quickly turned into shocking allegations against fellow actress Olatoun Olarewaju.
From Reconciliation to Accusations
Iyanaladuke had initially sparked joy among fans when she returned to social media sharing videos from family outings, suggesting reconciliation with her husband. This came months after gossip blog Gistlover had reported trouble in the Adebayo's second marriage, citing infidelity as the reason for their alleged split.
The mood shifted dramatically when Iyanaladuke directly called out Olatoun Olarewaju, accusing her of being responsible for wrecking her marriage. In her emotional posts, she described Olatoun as "like a sister" who should have protected her marriage despite any mistakes she might have made.
"How could you destroy something so beautiful?" Iyanaladuke questioned in her now-deleted Instagram posts. She expressed deep hurt over what she characterized as betrayal by someone she considered close to her.
Olatoun Fires Back With Counter-Allegations
Olatoun Olarewaju responded swiftly and fiercely on her own Instagram page, refusing to remain silent against the accusations. She claimed she had endured "a lot of nonsense" from Iyanaladuke that had cost her friendships and nearly ruined her own marriage.
In a stunning counter-attack, Olatoun insisted that Iyanaladuke destroyed her marriage "with her own hands" and accused her of engaging in reverse psychology on social media. She challenged Iyanaladuke to provide proof supporting her allegations and warned her to stop the public drama.
Sharing a photo of Iyanaladuke in another post, Olatoun vowed not to keep quiet anymore, claiming she had previously cautioned the actor's wife but was ignored. She promised to respond "back-to-back" to any further posts and dared Iyanaladuke to react to everything she shares.
Social Media Reacts to the Explosive Feud
Fans expressed mixed reactions to the public confrontation between the two women. Some questioned the wisdom of airing personal grievances on social media, while others eagerly followed the unfolding drama.
User @quin_hestar commented: "If at this point you come for her it's her business... why will she bring this issue on social media... why will she attack you on social media."
Another user @pweetyciousfolly expressed frustration with the public drama, stating: "Nigeria need help pass all this mumu drama, make den park one side jare."
The timing of the controversy is particularly notable as it comes during what appeared to be a reconciliation period for Femi Adebayo and his wife. Just weeks earlier, fans had celebrated what seemed like the couple mending their relationship after months of speculation about marital troubles.
The situation remains unresolved as both women have made serious allegations against each other, leaving Nollywood fans divided and curious about what evidence might emerge to support either side's claims.
