The feud had previously spilt into public view at Iyabo Ojo's film premiere, The Return of Arinzo, where Funke was filmed appearing to ignore Toyin's greeting entirely.

Reactions online split sharply. Critics argued that Toyin enabled bullying by laughing along instead of cautioning her fan, while supporters pointed out that she did not personally utter the insults herself.

Foluke's post has added another layer to the debate, with fans weighing whether loyalty among colleagues should take precedence over accountability.
