Setting the Record Straight
Nollywood actress Rosy Meurer has firmly addressed and dismissed widespread rumours suggesting that her husband, Olakunle Churchill, is physically abusive toward her. In a strongly worded Instagram post, Meurer broke her silence, emphasising the importance of controlling one’s own narrative in the face of growing online speculation.
“If you don’t tell your side of the story, they will tell it for you in ways that suit them,” she wrote, calling on others to reject falsehoods and speak their truth. “My husband is not a woman beater. These allegations are completely unfounded and fabricated.”
‘I Won’t Let Others Tell My Story’
Meurer’s post reflects deep frustration over what she described as “cooked-up gist” aimed at keeping the online space buzzing. Although she admitted that debunking rumours isn’t her usual approach, she said she chose to speak out this time to protect her family and those who look up to her.
“Only I can tell you what’s happening in my life and no one else,” she stressed.
She went further to criticise those wishing her harm, saying it was “funny when haters wish beating in my marriage.” She also took aim at what she sees as media sensationalism and online negativity, suggesting that gossip is being recycled from “lies of the past.”
Churchill Reacts: ‘We’re at Disney Paris’
Meanwhile, Rosy’s husband, Olakunle Churchill, took a more playful tone in his own response to the allegations. Sharing that his family was enjoying a vacation at Disneyland Paris, Churchill joked that critics would “have to wait until menopause” if they were hoping for a separation.
“I hear say I dey trend… My family dey Disney Paris dey enjoy summer life,” he wrote. “Una go wait until menopause come.”
Churchill also dismissed the claims as baseless chatter, reiterating that neither his wife has domestic staff nor close friends who could have fuelled such gossip.
A Familiar Spotlight
The couple’s relationship has long been under public scrutiny, often drawing commentary from fans and detractors alike. Churchill, previously married to actress Tonto Dikeh, and Meurer, once accused of being the third party in that marriage, have been subject to controversy since they made their union public.
Despite the swirling rumours, both parties appear united in brushing off the latest wave of allegations and focusing on their family life.
Final Word
Rosy Meurer’s statement is both a personal defense and a call for responsible public discourse. By rejecting the accusations and insisting on her right to tell her story, she joins a growing number of celebrities pushing back against viral misinformation and social media trials.
As she puts it:
“It’s my story, not yours.”
