An old nightclub clip featuring Nigerian music icon Innocent "2Baba" Idibia and his ex-wife, actress Annie Macaulay-Idibia, has set social media ablaze, with fans convinced the former couple may have found their way back to each other. The speculation, however, has been firmly shut down by both parties.

Annie was the first to address the chatter, taking to her Instagram Stories to push back against what she called misinformation. She followed up with an even more pointed message on Snapchat, writing:

"Old videos circulating everywhere. False news everywhere. Lies, lies, lies and more lies! Annie is single! Not going back anywhere!! I do not live there anymore! All that concerns me are my 2 brilliant, beautiful daughters! My career!"

"I realised that people fight to stay where they're tolerated rather than where they're celebrated."

The African Queen singer also broke his silence on Instagram, keeping things brief with, "Abeg na old video o." His message was accompanied by a laughing emoji.

When did 2Baba and Annie Idibia divorce?

The two were married in 2012 and share two daughters together. In January 2025, 2Baba publicly announced their separation and intention to divorce via Instagram, bringing an end to over a decade of marriage that had played out largely in the public eye.

The resurfacing of old footage is not unusual for celebrity couples, but given the high-profile nature of their split, even archival clips are enough to send fans into a frenzy. With both 2Baba and Annie now having clarified the situation, the reconciliation narrative appears to be well and truly off the table, at least for now.
