Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Face, has publicly addressed the controversies surrounding his highly publicized split from longtime partner Annie Idibia and his recent marriage to Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawuru.
In a candid interview on the 234 Mzansi Podcast in July 2025, the veteran Nigerian music icon declared that he does not owe any explanations about his personal life not even to his ex-wife Annie. He stated, “My kids are the only people I owe an explanation.” The revelation came months after he shocked fans by announcing his separation from Annie on social media in January 2025.
2Face explained the reasons behind their split, emphasizing that despite their best efforts, the marriage "wasn't working anymore." He acknowledged Annie as "an amazing person" and said they had "a good run" but ultimately decided it was best to part ways.
Following the separation, 2Face quickly moved on and got engaged to Natasha Osawuru, a serving member of the Edo State House of Assembly. The couple officially wed in a private ceremony in Abuja in late July 2025, with close family members in attendance. The wedding video quickly went viral, triggering a wave of reactions from fans and the public.
Social media responses to the new marriage have been mixed. Some applauded 2Face for moving on and finding new love, while others criticized the sudden transition from one relationship to another.
2Face stirred further controversy in July 2025 when he publicly stated in an interview that men are not sexually built to be loyal to only one woman. This statement sparked widespread debate online and among fellow celebrities. However, he later issued a public apology, expressing regret and explaining that he did not communicate his thoughts appropriately.
Adding to the drama, 2Face's brother publicly expressed concerns about the new relationship, warning that it might jeopardize the singer’s legacy. He cited instances of control and manipulation from the new partner, which ignited discussions among fans.
This turbulent period marks one of the most publicly scrutinized chapters in 2Face's personal life. While his music continues to inspire many, his recent statements and life decisions have generated intense emotions and divided opinions across Nigeria.
Fans continue to watch closely, hoping for peace and happiness for the music legend amidst the ongoing personal challenges.
