Taking to his official Instagram page to clear the air, Olakunle Churchill released a lengthy message, stating that the reports of divorce were false.

He explained that what people referred to as a marriage was only an introduction ceremony, not a legally recognised union, and therefore talk of divorce was misplaced.

“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.
"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.”

The businessman went further to question the authenticity of the documents being shared online, stressing that he was never served any legal papers.

He criticised those advising Rosy Meurer, describing them as inexperienced individuals and unqualified practitioners who claimed to produce divorce documents overnight.

“Beyond that, any legitimate legal process requires that all parties be formally served and given the opportunity to respond. I was never served.
"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.”

Churchill questioned the authenticity of the supposed legal process and the alleged hearing dates, saying they were unrealistic within the Nigerian legal system.

He acknowledged that Rosy Meurer faced public criticism during their relationship but rejected the narrative that she stood by him in a way that should now be exaggerated, stating that another woman would have occupied the position if she were absent.

“I do not agree with the narrative that Rosy ‘stood by me’ in a way that should now be exaggerated. While I acknowledge that she faced public criticism, it is important to state that if she had not been there, someone else would have occupied that position in my life.”

They should settle their differences offline – Analyst

In a chat with Legit.ng, a social media analyst who requested anonymity shared thoughts on the unfolding marital drama.

He said:

"Family or marital issues are very deep and difficult for outsiders to understand, because only the couple truly knows what went wrong. While a lot might have happened between Rosy and Churchill, I feel his choice of words in that revelation was quite insulting and ridiculing to Rosy's personality, even though he later cleared it off his page. They really need to find a way to settle their differences offline instead of making a public spectacle and exposing their kids to future trolling, because the internet never forgets."
