On Tuesday, December 2, Yvonne took to Instagram to thank 2Baba and Natasha for attending her 20 Years on Stage celebration.
She described the moment as a full circle, explaining that the musician played a pivotal role in kickstarting her acting journey two decades ago.
However, the post fueled backlash from netizens who accused her of ignoring and failing to support Annie Macaulay, 2Baba’s estranged wife.
Amid the criticism, Yvonne stood her ground and addressed her detractors, writing:
"I chose to respect people’s choices. I chose to see the good in people and, where necessary, give them my honest opinion in private. Show people love when they are at their lowest. Don’t throw the baby with the bathing water."
The unfollowing has further fueled speculation that the actresses may be at odds over the ongoing marital conversations surrounding 2Baba.
