Did Annie Macaulay Realise the Problem with Her Marriage Too Late?
What Next for Tuface Idibia?
Annie Macaulay (Idibia) was credited with this quote recently, “One of the biggest mistakes I made in my marriage was letting other people, especially in-laws and family, have too much say. At first, it looked like they were only giving advice, but little by little, it became too much. I was always being compared and judged, and it started to feel like I didn’t belong in my own home… I ended up feeling like a stranger where I should have felt safe.
“Fights that should have ended in private became talks for everyone. Every little problem was reported. Every decision had to be discussed with others. Slowly, the love we had changed into pain and pressure. Our marriage didn’t break just because of us—it broke because we let too many voices speak into our home.
“Ladies, please learn from me. Don’t let others control your home. Set your rules early. Respect your partner and ask to be respected too. Keep your marriage private and safe. A marriage is for two people, not for the whole world. Don’t let others destroy the love you are trying to grow.”
—Annie Macaulay
A social analyst in reaction to Annie’s comment said, “The reality is gradually dawning on her now. My people are pushing someone for a marital fight, it will look like they will marry you or provide you a better husband after the fight. Women should learn one thing about marriage and life. A man may decide to get married within one week and it will be actualized once he makes up his mind about it. Same is not for our women folk. Preserving a marriage works for both parties but women are home builders. Two things are very fundamental in marriage and our bible captured them succinctly, wife be submissive (Respect) your husband and husband love your wife. A man doesn’t need love from a woman, he only needs respect and once that respect comes, love will flow into the marriage naturally.”
Now, following 2Baba’s (Tuface) traditional wedding to Natasha Osawaru, the next step is likely for them to navigate their new life together, potentially with a focus on building their family and continuing their careers. Given the private nature of the ceremony, further details about their future plans are yet to be revealed.
Here’s a more detailed look at potential next steps: 2Baba and Natasha are reportedly living together, and the next natural progression could involve establishing a home and potentially starting a family.
While the wedding was private, it garnered significant attention, and the couple may need to navigate public perception, especially given 2Baba’s past relationship with Annie Macaulay-Idibia.
“2face’s Mother Speaks Out
As the mother of 2face Idibia, I feel compelled to share my side of the story regarding his marriage to Annie. I welcomed Annie into our family with open arms, despite knowing that my son had five children from previous relationships.
Initially, everything seemed fine, and I was happy to see my son settling down with Annie, who had been by his side during his rise to fame. However, over time, I noticed changes in her behavior. Whenever I wanted to visit, she would say they wouldn’t be around and would tell me when they returned.
When I needed help, she would respond saying they were struggling too. I tried to mediate when my son started having issues with other women, but my efforts were met with resistance. Annie accused me of supporting my son, which wasn’t true.
One day, I received insults from Annie, who called me a witch and a wicked woman. I was devastated. My family, including 2face’s siblings and cousins, faced similar insults.
Recently, I learned that 2face and Annie have been separated and are pending divorce. I urged my son to withdraw the divorce case and work on resolving their issues. I’m particularly concerned about Annie, who is currently in rehab for drug abuse. I pray for her recovery and hope they can reconcile for the sake of their children.” (From Sheri Hadi)
