Nigerians on social media have revived an old post by businessman Olakunle Churchill after his recent remarks denying that he and actress Rosy Meurer were ever legally married.
The controversy escalated hours after Churchill pushed back against reports of a separation, insisting there was no basis for divorce proceedings because, according to him, there was no court or church marriage in the first place, only an introduction.
His remarks immediately triggered debate online, but the conversation intensified when users dug up an older social media post in which Churchill appeared to celebrate an “8th wedding anniversary” with Rosy.
In the resurfaced post, he reportedly shared a loved-up photo of the couple alongside a caption referencing their anniversary, a detail many critics now say contradicts his latest claims.
That discovery quickly fueled reactions across social platforms, with users questioning how an anniversary could have been publicly celebrated as a wedding milestone if he now insists there was no legally recognized marriage.
The contradiction has become the center of online discussion, with many focusing less on the divorce rumors and more on the inconsistency between past declarations and present statements.
The situation has also drawn renewed attention to Churchill’s history in the public eye, including his past highly publicized disputes with ex-wife Tonto Dikeh, which he referenced in his recent statement.
Churchill had also drawn reactions after suggesting Rosy’s support during those turbulent periods was being exaggerated, saying anyone else could have played that role.
That remark, combined with his denial of a legal marriage, appears to have deepened public scrutiny.
Online reactions have since ranged from mockery to criticism, with many users treating the resurfaced anniversary post as undermining his latest explanation.
What began as a response to divorce rumors has now evolved into a broader social media debate about credibility, public relationships, and how old posts can resurface to challenge current narratives.
For now, neither Churchill nor Rosy has publicly addressed the resurfaced anniversary post directly, but the discovery has added a fresh layer of drama to an already heated conversation.
