The manager of soulful singer Simi has refuted online reports that the artist and her husband, Adekunle Gold, are getting divorced, calling the story untrue.

According to Simi’s manager, Vincent, the story, which spread rapidly on social media, was based on a forged document presented as a divorce petition submitted allegedly by Adekunle Gold.

The document, dated February 28, 2026, claimed that the couple’s marriage had “irretrievably broken down” and alleged prolonged emotional, financial and professional control.

It also sought dissolution of the marriage and joint custody arrangements for their child.

Some online reports suggested the petition had been filed at the High Court of Lagos State.

Reacting to the document circulating online, Vincent said it contained clear indications that it was not genuine and pointed to what he described as technical legal errors.

“It’s fake and fabricated. First, stage names are not tenable in any court of justice worldwide, as indicated in the document. Even the suit number on the document is backdated to 2024 (SUIT NO HCL/FC/2024/0178),” he said.

The rumour had gained traction on social media after old posts attributed to Simi resurfaced, with some users interpreting them as possible signs of marital strain.

Adekunle Gold’s recent return to social media after a short break also sparked speculation among fans, with some reading meaning into his posts.

Simi and Adekunle Gold began as friends and collaborators before dating for several years and marrying in January 2019.

The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Adejare, also known as Deja, in 2020.

Earlier in 2026, it was reported that the couple had given birth to twins, which fans cheered.

The couple recently celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary and shared tributes on social media.(The Sun)
