Breaking her silence, the actress dismissed the claims in a short but direct message shared on her Instagram Stories.
He described the reports as fake news, insisting that the videos circulating were recorded long before the couple split.
“Old videos circulating everywhere, fake news everywhere,” Annie wrote.
While she didn’t elaborate further, the statement effectively dismissed reports that she and 2Baba had rekindled their relationship.
His response also cautioned fans against believing any information circulating on social media without verification.
Viral video sparks speculation
The rumors began after an old video showing Annie and 2Baba spending time together at a nightclub resurfaced on Friday.
In the clip, the couple appeared relaxed and happy as they enjoyed the outing, leading many social media users to conclude that they had secretly reconciled.
Within hours, the video went viral, attracting thousands of comments from fans expressing excitement at the possibility of the former couple getting back together.
Several entertainment blogs also picked up the story, further fueling speculation about a possible reunion.
However, Annie’s clarification has now confirmed that the footage was not recent and should not be interpreted as evidence that the couple had reunited.
The marriage ended after more than a decade
Annie and 2Baba were married for more than ten years and were considered one of Nigeria’s top celebrity couples.
During their marriage, they often appeared together at award ceremonies, concerts, movie premieres and other public events.
The couple also welcomed two daughters into their union and often shared moments from their family life with fans.
Their relationship, however, was not without its challenges and often attracted public attention due to the controversies surrounding the singer’s personal life.
In January 2025 the couple officially separated, putting an end to a marriage that had remained in the spotlight for years.
The split generated widespread reactions from fans and entertainment industry colleagues, many of whom expressed hope that the couple would eventually reconcile.
2Baba moves forward with a new marriage
After his marriage to Annie ended, 2Baba moved on with his personal life and later remarried.
The veteran singer is now married to Edo State MP Natasha Osawaru, a development which has also attracted significant attention from the public.
Despite his remarriage, interest in his former relationship with Annie has remained strong, with old photographs and videos of the former couple often resurfacing online.
Each time such content reappears, it often sparks new speculation about a possible reunion.
Annie’s latest statement appears to have put an end to the latest wave of rumors, making it clear that the viral nightclub video was from the past and does not reflect current reality.
The incident also highlights the growing challenge posed by recycled social media content, which is increasingly used to spread misinformation and create false narratives about celebrities and public figures.
