Peggy Ovire Suggests Her Divorce From Frederick Leonard Has Been Finalised
Nollywood actress Peggy Ovire has given her strongest indication yet that her marriage to fellow actor Frederick Leonard is officially over. In a post shared on her Instagram Story, the actress offered thanks to God in a short message that fans widely read as confirmation that the legal side of the split had reached its conclusion.
Peggy Ovire Celebrates Her Legal Freedom
According to reports, Peggy wrote, “Thank you, Jesus. It is done,” on her Instagram Story — a brief note that immediately set off speculation that the drawn-out divorce process had ended. She went on to reshare a celebratory message from her colleague Angela Eguavoen, who wrote, “My queen is free!! Hallelujah,” further fuelling the interpretation that the matter had been settled.
The development follows months of public tension between the former couple. Peggy had previously accused Frederick of being involved with a married mother, and claimed he was dragging out the divorce by repeatedly staying away from court despite being served legal papers. At one point, she reportedly posted a video showing the actor at a public event with the woman she alleged he was seeing, while calling on him not to skip another sitting at the customary court.
Earlier in the year, Frederick appeared to allude to moving on during his birthday celebrations, saying he had found a happier version of himself. Around the same time, Peggy shared a cryptic message about choosing herself, which many followers believed was aimed at her estranged husband. The two actors married in a high-profile traditional ceremony in Asaba, Delta State, on November 19, 2022. As of the time of this report, neither party has offered details beyond their social media posts.
A Prominent Nollywood Union Dissolves Under Scrutiny
Peggy Ovire and Frederick Leonard are both well-known faces in Nollywood, and their union was one of the industry’s most talked-about celebrity weddings. Their split has therefore played out under intense public scrutiny, with fans dissecting every post for clues.
As is common with celebrity separations, much of the story has unfolded through indirect social media messages rather than formal statements. Until either actor speaks openly, the finality of the divorce rests on interpretation of these online posts.
