Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as Tuface, has confirmed that his recent announcement of separation from his wife, Annie Macaulay-Idibia, is authentic, dismissing claims that his Instagram account had been hacked.
The drama began on Sunday when a statement posted on Tuface’s Instagram account revealed that the couple had been separated for some time and had filed for divorce. The post read, in part, “I and Annie Macaulay have been separated for a while now, and currently filed for divorce… I would grant a press release soon to say my story.”
Shortly after, another message appeared on the same account claiming the page had been hacked. However, in a recent video, Tuface clarified the situation, saying, “Nobody hacked my account, na me talk wetin I won talk.”
The confirmation has triggered a wave of reactions on social media, with fans expressing shock and disappointment.
One user, @temilawal, wrote, “You must be joking! You cheated on her multiple times, she stood by you. What happened that you couldn’t stand by her?”
Another, @vendorshome, added, “You didn’t have to come online to say it though. It’s not fair. This woman married you with five kids when the whole world was against you and still stood by you. If anyone should give the PSA, it should’ve been her.”
Some, like @stage4life, encouraged Annie to move on, saying, “Gurl Annie, if I were you, I would take this as the biggest blessing. Take care of yourself boo and live your best life!”
Tuface and Annie, who tied the knot in May 2012 and celebrated their star-studded wedding in Dubai in March 2013, share two daughters, Isabella and Olivia. Their marriage has faced persistent rumors of infidelity, with Annie publicly accusing Tuface of unfaithfulness in the past.
As fans and followers process the news, the separation of the high-profile couple has sparked widespread conversation about loyalty, forgiveness, and personal growth in relationships.
