Peller stepped back immediately, explaining that marriage had changed the rules for him and that physical contact with other women was now off the table without his wife's clearance.
He called Jarvis on the spot to seek her permission. Jarvis declined the request, stating that she would sue the lady if Peller went ahead.
Peller and Jarvis's strict marital boundaries
The exchange quickly caught attention online, with many viewers unsure whether to treat it as a sincere display of commitment or an elaborate bit of entertainment.
Some noted that the woman in the video appeared to be a TikToker based in the United States who had made the trip to Nigeria.
The contrast between the casual nature of a hug and the formal process Peller went through to deny it struck many as both funny and telling.
Peller and Jarvis, whose full name is Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, are two of Nigeria's most recognisable digital creators.
Their relationship began through TikTok live streams in 2023 and grew into a full public courtship that their combined audience followed closely.
They sealed their union with court, traditional and white wedding ceremonies held across July and August 2026.
