In the post, it was also claimed that she changed her profile name to her husband’s name and that the two had not been making skits together for some time.
The blogger also questioned whether all was well with the movie star, while warning that it is his second marriage and advising him to keep things more private.
However, in a recent viral video, Stephanie directly addressed the chatter, playfully taunting critics who kept asking about her husband’s whereabouts.
She said:
“So guys, I want to reply to this comment, some of you have been asking me where Mr Legend is. The thing is that I actually sold him. I sold him off to an Iranian… but after two or three days, they returned him and said he’s too dark. They asked if I could bleach him, but it didn’t work. So I refunded them.”
Continuing her humorous response, she added:
“Afghanistan later called and said I should deliver him to them. I did, and I just pray they are okay with his complexion. The money is still here with me. So that is it. Yes, I came back and made vegetable soup freshly.”

Legit.ng earlier reported that Aki and his wife, Stephanie Promise Ikedieze, ignited reactions after releasing a comedy skit that mimicked online appeals for medical donations.
The video came just days after controversial influencer Blessing CEO revealed that she was battling stage 4 cancer and asked the public for financial support.
On Wednesday, March 25, Blessing CEO shared an emotional clip where she spoke about her diagnosis and showed her hair loss.
She explained that the illness had reached stage 4 and pleaded for contributions to help cover treatment expenses, displaying her account details for donations.
The video quickly spread across social media, drawing sympathy and concern from her followers.
Two days later, comic actor Aki and his wife posted their video. In the skit, Stephanie pretended to be deaf, dumb and blind while her husband urged viewers to send money to their account.
At one point, she suddenly spoke, and Aki declared it a miracle, making the scene humorous.
The clip reflected the format of recent online fundraising appeals, and the timing of the skit has drawn attention online, with many Nigerians pointing out how quickly personal crises involving public figures are turned into comedy.
