Businessman Olakunle Churchill has dismissed reports circulating about a divorce from actress Rosy Meurer, insisting that no legally recognised marriage ever existed between them.
In a detailed statement shared on his Instagram page on Wednesday, Churchill described the claims as false and urged the public to disregard what he called misinformation.
According to him, their relationship did not involve a court or church wedding, but only an introduction ceremony.
“The reports circulating online about a supposed divorce between myself and Roseline Meurer are completely false. There is no truth to them, and they should be treated as such,” Churchill wrote.
“There was no legally recognized marriage. There was no church wedding and no court wedding. What took place was an introduction. Therefore, the idea of a ‘divorce’ is baseless from the outset.”
Churchill also questioned the authenticity of reports suggesting ongoing legal proceedings, saying he was never formally served any court documents and raised concerns about due process.
“I am 100% sure that individuals without proper experience in the media space are advising Rosy incorrectly, alongside legal practitioners who operate under a mango tree without due process and claim to produce divorce documents within 24 hours,” he said.
“Looking at the alleged hearing and judgment dates, I am left asking: is this even possible in Nigeria?”
The businessman also made remarks touching on past public controversies involving his former marriage to actress Tonto Dikeh, noting that issues from that relationship were personal and had since been resolved between the parties involved. He added that he had reconciled with Tonto Dikeh and believes she is “in a better place.”
Churchill also addressed perceptions around Rosy Meurer’s public role in his life, stating that while she faced criticism, he disagreed with narratives that exaggerated her involvement.
His statement comes amid renewed public attention after Rosy Meurer recently posted a video on Instagram reintroducing herself without Churchill’s surname or a wedding ring, describing her return to the public eye as a “rebirth” and new phase in her career.
