Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday has firmly shut down swirling rumours that she has rekindled her romance with former partner Opeyemi Falegan. In a strongly worded Instagram post, the actress made it clear that settling past differences does not equal a romantic reunion.
The clarification comes after the pair publicly made peace during a TikTok Live session over the weekend. Falegan, an Ekiti politician and philanthropist, had been reaching out since earlier in the year. Nkechi revealed she told him he needed to apologise publicly for past comments that continued to fuel online attacks against her before she would consider peace. He complied, and she also apologised in return.

Yet the actress left no room for misinterpretation.
“For the very last time and for those that care to listen, Dr Nkechi Blessing Sunday is not back with any of her Ex’s both past, present and future ex… let it be known,” she stated.
She added:
“Nothing like coming back together, not in this life or the next life.”
In the same post she questioned why former partners must remain enemies simply because a romantic relationship ends.
Falegan later issued his own statement confirming the pair had resolved their differences and were now “in a very good place.” He thanked the public for concern, advice and prayers, asked people to let the matter rest, and emphasised the value of forgiveness and maturity.
Their relationship ended in a highly publicised fallout in 2022 after a period marked by public accusations and mutual shade. Years of online tension followed until the recent moves toward peace. Nkechi has stressed in follow-up comments that forgiveness is not the same as reconciliation and that she has moved on.
The actress’s latest statement appears aimed at ending speculation once and for all. Fans and observers have continued to weigh in, with some praising the maturity of both parties while others remain sceptical of the sudden thaw.
