Rumours of a possible divorce between popular Nigerian music stars Simi and Adekunle Gold have been making the rounds on social media, following a viral post that claimed the couple’s marriage had hit the rocks.

The speculation began after celebrity journalist Stella Dimoko Korkus shared a copy of what was described as a divorce petition allegedly filed by Adekunle Gold against his wife.

According to the circulating claim, the singer wanted to end the marriage because Simi reportedly “orders him around” at home, creating what was described as a toxic environment filled with suppression and lack of respect.

However, the document attached to the claim has been exposed as fake.

Stella revealed that after forwarding the supposed petition to a legal expert, she was informed that the document did not match the standard format of a divorce filing at the Lagos State High Court.

The suit number was also reported as incorrect.

The lawyer reportedly dismissed it as an “Oluwole petition,” a term commonly used to describe forged or fraudulent documents.

The viral rumour comes shortly after some of Simi’s old tweets resurfaced on X (formerly Twitter). The posts, which she made years ago while working at her mother’s school, touched on sensitive topics and sparked renewed conversations online. Many believe the resurfaced tweets may have prompted mischief-makers to stir up controversy around the couple’s marriage.

Despite the online buzz, there is no credible evidence to suggest that Simi and Adekunle Gold are getting a divorce.

Legit.ng also reported that Simi sparked reactions after criticising men who complain about not getting attention after their wives gave birth.

She explained in a circulating video that people should focus on the mother’s recovery and the baby’s well-being, noting that women face intense physical and emotional stress during pregnancy and delivery.

Simi added that many women undergo painful procedures, swelling, exhaustion and sleepless nights, stressing that men should show empathy instead of demanding attention during such periods.
