BBN's Emmanuel and Wife Spark Divorce Rumours; He's Now Dating Liquorose.

In other news, BBN's Emmanuel unfollowed his wife not over a split, but because her cousin kept raiding his wardrobe for IG clout. He wiped their photos just to get her attention, choosing digital chaos over sharing his outfits with a influencer.

In other news, Emmanuel and his wife have turned their four-month-old marriage into a social media mystery, and the internet is watching closely.

Big Brother Naija star Emmanuel Umoh and his wife, Cilia Nyanghe, have sparked speculation that their marriage may be in trouble after they unfollowed each other on Instagram and deleted photos of their wedding and the house they were said to have acquired together. The couple, who tied the knot in April 2026, had attracted attention earlier this year after Emmanuel exchanged vows with his Cameroonian-American partner in a series of ceremonies that followed their civil wedding on April 17.

The social media changes have raised questions about the state of their marriage, just months after they celebrated their union and reportedly acquired a new home together in the US. Their reported unfollowing and removal of couple photos have further fuelled speculation that something may have changed behind the scenes.

But here is what the blogs did not tell you.

The real reason Emmanuel and his wife are no longer following each other is not that they are getting divorced. It is because Emmanuel found out that his wife's cousin has been living in the house and using his wardrobe to shoot Instagram content. He asked her to tell her cousin to stop, she refused, and he decided that the only way to get her attention was to unfollow her and delete the photos. He is not leaving his marriage, he is just tired of sharing his closet with someone who has more followers than he does. 

Edgar doesn't lie.
