Nollywood actress Rosy Meurer is once again at the center of social media attention after releasing an emotional Instagram video where she passionately defended her marriage to businessman Olakunle Churchill and addressed long-standing controversies surrounding their relationship.
In the now-viral clip, the actress spoke candidly about her love for her husband, shutting down persistent rumors that their marriage is in crisis. Rosy described Churchill as a man she deeply respects and loves, stressing that her commitment to him is unwavering despite years of public scrutiny.
She went further to make a dramatic declaration of loyalty, stating that she would do anything to protect him, even saying she could “take a bullet” for him — a statement that immediately sparked heated reactions across Nigerian social media.
The video also addressed ongoing speculation that the couple is secretly separated or facing serious marital problems. Rosy firmly denied these claims, insisting that their home is intact and peaceful. According to her, much of what circulates online about their marriage is fabricated or exaggerated for gossip.
A major part of her message focused on the controversial history linking her to Churchill’s previous marriage to actress Tonto Dikeh. For years, critics have accused Rosy of being involved with Churchill before his marriage to Tonto ended — an allegation she has repeatedly denied.
In the video, Rosy again rejected the “husband snatcher” narrative, maintaining that she had no romantic involvement with Churchill while he was married. She also claimed she had no personal relationship with Tonto and did not interfere in their union.
The actress suggested that many of the accusations against her were based on assumptions rather than facts, saying she has endured years of online attacks, insults, and misrepresentation. Her emotional tone indicated frustration over how long the controversy has followed her despite her efforts to move forward.
Sources close to the couple claim the video was partly motivated by renewed online discussions about their marriage timeline, which recently resurfaced on blogs and gossip platforms. Some reports even suggest Churchill encouraged his wife to speak publicly in order to counter the narratives surrounding their relationship.
Rosy emphasized that social media does not reflect real life, noting that people often judge marriages based on limited or false information. She urged critics to allow her family to live in peace and focus on their own lives.
Since the video surfaced, reactions have been sharply divided. Supporters praised her for standing up for her marriage and speaking her truth, while critics questioned why the issue continues to be revisited years after the original controversy.
Despite the backlash, the video has significantly reignited public interest in the long-running saga involving Churchill, Tonto, and Rosy;one of Nigeria’s most talked-about celebrity relationship dramas.
For now, Rosy Meurer appears determined to protect her marriage and reputation, making it clear that she is no longer willing to remain silent in the face of persistent allegations. Whether her latest statement will finally put the controversy to rest or fuel even more debate remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the conversation is far from over.
