Nollywood actress Peggy Ovire has sparked fresh speculation about the state of her marriage to fellow actor Frederick Leonard by quietly deleting his name from her Instagram bio as of January 2, 2026.
The move comes amid persistent rumours of a marital crisis that have plagued the couple since late 2024.
A visit to her Instagram page reveals that Leonard’s name, which was previously visible in her bio, has been removed.
Fans first raised concerns after Ovire posted a solo Christmas photo in December 2024, followed by a video in May 2025 showing her attending a wedding without her wedding ring.
The couple, who tied the knot in a glamorous ceremony in November 2022, have faced repeated divorce speculations over the past year.

Earlier attempts to dispel the rumours included Ovire sharing videos of Leonard on set in October 2025, but recent developments such as the bio change and indirect references from industry colleagues have reignited discussions.
Neither Peggy Ovire nor Frederick Leonard has issued an official statement addressing the latest rumours, leaving fans to interpret the social media update as a potential sign of separation.
