Nollywood actress Annie Idibia has firmly dismissed swirling rumours of a romantic reunion with her estranged ex-husband, music legend Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, calling out the spread of misleading old videos.
In a straightforward post on her Instagram Stories, Annie addressed the speculation head-on.
“Old videos circulating everywhere, false news everywhere,” she wrote, putting an end to the frenzy that erupted over the weekend.
The rumours gained momentum on Friday, July 17, after an old video of the former couple sharing an affectionate moment while dancing at a nightclub resurfaced online. Many fans and blogs quickly interpreted the clip as fresh evidence of reconciliation, sparking widespread excitement and speculation across social media.
However, Annie’s clear statement clarified that the footage was not recent, effectively killing the hopeful narrative. The couple, who share two daughters, announced the end of their marriage in January 2025 after more than a decade together. 2Baba has since moved on and is now married to Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawaru.
This latest development highlights the intense public scrutiny that follows high-profile celebrity breakups, with old content often repurposed to fuel false hope or drama. Annie’s decisive response shows her determination to move forward without revisiting the past.
Fans have reacted with mixed emotions. Some express disappointment while others praised Annie for setting the record straight and focusing on her own peace.
