Rosy Meurer Breaks Silence on Rumours of Snatching Tonto Dikeh's Husband
Nollywood actress Rosy Meurer has finally addressed the long-standing rumours that she snatched her husband, Olakunle Churchill, from his former wife, Tonto Dikeh. In a recent video statement, Meurer vehemently denied these claims, insisting she was never friends with Tonto Dikeh and had no personal relationship with her.
Meurer Denies Friendship and Snatching Allegations
Meurer clarified that the narrative of a close friendship with Tonto Dikeh is entirely false. She stated, "I was never Tonto Dikeh's friend", and dismissed stories of visiting Dikeh's home or being introduced to Churchill through her. The actress emphasised that she had never met Tonto and described the allegations as baseless, challenging anyone to provide evidence to support them.
Addressing Claims of Marrying Her Brother
In the same video, Meurer also tackled the viral claim that she married her own brother, Olakunle Churchill. She explained that Churchill was once described as "like a brother" to her due to the support he provided for her career and family. Meurer noted that he was close to her siblings and often helped them, but she hammered that there was no romantic involvement during that period.
According to her, she was younger and naïve at the time, and she learned about events online just like the public, with no prior knowledge of Churchill's personal life. She maintained that no proof exists for these allegations because they are false.
Family Dynamics and Public Reactions
Meurer revealed that she treats all of Churchill's children with equal love and care, disclosing that his daughter is currently with her. She expressed her belief that every child deserves both parents and would never interfere with Churchill spending time with his son from his previous marriage to Tonto Dikeh.
The actress urged the public to respect her family and allow her husband to enjoy peace in his relationships with his children. She emphasised that she remains Mrs Rosalie Meurer Churchill and wants the matter settled once and for all.
Social Media Reactions to Meurer's Statement
Nigerians have taken to social media to react to Meurer's video, with the comments section buzzing with criticism and scepticism. Many users questioned the plausibility of her claims, pointing out inconsistencies in her narrative.
- @chikaoloyede commented: "He was a brother to you, helping you and your siblings and you claimed not to know the wife. How were you so comfortable mingling with a married man without minding the feelings of the wife. You are a heartless and dangerous woman."
- @getitrightnaija said: "Your trying too hard to look like tonto is driving him further to her . Men would shock you ?"
- @helenbeauty44 added: "Someone's husband was so close to you and your family ?and yet you never knew the wife and have never met her"
- @bread_prof remarked: "Rosy, that thing that made you set camera to narrate what nobody asked you will make you confess one day. Marriage is sacred and you enabled the divorce between Tonto and Churchill."
Background on Davido's Reaction
Earlier, singer Davido drew attention online after reacting to family photos of Tonto Dikeh, Olakunle Churchill, and their son, King Andre. The former couple had reunited publicly to celebrate their son's 10th birthday after years of separation and disputes. Davido commented, "God is good", which sparked conversations online, especially as he was dealing with his own custody issues involving his daughter, Imade.
This incident adds another layer to the ongoing celebrity drama, highlighting the public's fascination with the personal lives of Nigerian stars. Meurer's statement aims to clear the air, but social media reactions suggest that many remain unconvinced, keeping the rumours alive in the entertainment sphere.
