Nollywood actor Bolanle Ninalowo recently took down all photos of his wife, Bunmi Ninalowo, from his Instagram page shortly after publicly disclosing their divorce. Following a 16-year marriage, the couple attributed their separation to “irreconcilable differences.”
This revelation about their divorce has generated a strong response from Nigerians on social media, with many expressing shock and sadness.
Some social media users have linked the couple’s public displays of affection as a potential factor contributing to their breakup. Others have expressed skepticism about the credibility of their reconciliation after their initial separation.
A user named Bash Anthony commented on the platform X (formerly Twitter): “After all the paparazzi and public display of affection, I have said it multiple times that the only way to salvage a marriage is through intrafamily marriage, allowing siblings to marry each other.”
Another user, @Henrietta_bby, shared her perspective, stating: “Well, no matter how much you claim to forgive infidelity, you might never truly forget, and that’s when the problems begin.”
Obikoya Adebowale expressed his confusion, wondering: “I don’t understand why celebrity marriages don’t seem to last these days.”
