Nollywood actress Peggy Ovire has reignited divorce rumours surrounding her marriage to actor Frederick Leonard after quietly removing his name from her Instagram bio.
As of Thursday, January 2, 2026, fans noticed that Ovire’s profile no longer carries any reference to her husband, a move that has stirred fresh conversations online about the state of their union.
The development comes amid months of speculation that the celebrity couple may be facing marital challenges. Concerns first surfaced in December 2024 when Ovire shared a solo Christmas photo without Leonard. The rumours deepened in May 2025 after she attended a wedding ceremony without wearing her wedding ring, a moment that did not go unnoticed by fans.
Peggy Ovire and Frederick Leonard tied the knot in a lavish traditional and white wedding ceremony in November 2022, an event that was widely celebrated across the entertainment industry. However, since late 2024, their marriage has repeatedly been the subject of divorce whispers on social media.
In October 2025, Ovire appeared to address the rumours by sharing videos of Leonard on a movie set, which many interpreted as an attempt to shut down claims of a split. Despite that, the recent removal of his name from her bio, combined with subtle comments from industry insiders, has once again fueled speculation.
As of press time, neither Peggy Ovire nor Frederick Leonard has issued an official statement addressing the latest rumours.
