Veteran musician, Friday Igweh, known as Baba Fryo has weighed in on the collapsed marriage between music icon 2Baba and his ex-wife, Annie Idibia, attributing the breakdown to their shared entertainment lifestyle.
Speaking on the Honest Bunch podcast in Pidgin English, Baba Fryo said the couple’s inability to manage their union was due to both being in the entertainment industry, which he believes can create conflict when not properly handled.
He explained that, traditionally, a woman is expected to be a stabilising force in a marriage, especially when her partner is involved in vices. However, he questioned how stability can be achieved when both partners exhibit similar habits.
Baba Fryo also revealed a personal connection to 2Baba’s current partner, Natasha, claiming he had known her since childhood and once carried her on his lap when she was just three years old.
He said, “2Face and his wife, two of them, I will say they didn’t manage themselves well. They are both entertainers. Annie is an actress, and 2Face is a musician.
“Let us put this together. In marriage, when the couple are out for fun, it is the woman’s duty to take care of the man.
“When a man is drinking, the woman will be watching him, and if he is drinking too much, the woman will calm him.
“But if you marry a woman who also drinks, when you’re both drunk, who will take the other home?
“When a man sees that, he will become insecure in the marriage. And when he goes out and sees another woman with a different attitude.
“I’m not saying this scenario is a good one, because even 2Face’s current lover, Natasha, is someone I have known”
2Baba and Annie Macaulay separation was announced on January 26, 2025. 2Baba posted on Instagram that they had been separated for some time and were in the process of filing for divorce.
Macaulay later confirmed the separation and acknowledged the divorce proceedings.
