Nigerian music star, Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba, has celebrated his estranged wife, Annie Idibia, on her birthday, attracting fresh attention to their relationship following their separation.
The award-winning singer shared Annie’s photograph on his Instagram Story on Friday, November 13, tagging her account and accompanying the picture with a birthday message.
“Happy birthday @annieidibia1,” he wrote.
In another message, 2Baba wished the actress happiness, love and blessings, describing her as someone who is dearly loved.
“Happy birthday @annieidibia1. Massive birthday blessings Queen @annieidibia1. May the universe be on ur side always. Just know u are loved dearly. More love n light for u. Have a wonderful Bday,” he wrote.
The public birthday tribute has drawn attention because it comes amid renewed interest in the singer’s personal life following reports of difficulties in his relationship with Edo State lawmaker, Natasha Osawaru.
2Baba And Annie’s Marriage
2Baba and Annie were among Nigeria’s most recognisable celebrity couples, with their relationship attracting public attention throughout their years together.
The pair married in 2012 and have two daughters together. However, after several public controversies, the singer announced their separation in January 2025, bringing an end to their 13-year marriage.
The announcement generated widespread reactions, given their long relationship and prominence in Nigeria’s entertainment industry.
Following the separation, 2Baba’s relationship with Natasha Osawaru became public. The singer proposed to the lawmaker in February 2025, while reports of their traditional marriage emerged later that year.
Reports Of Separation From Natasha
In 2026, reports emerged that 2Baba and Natasha were experiencing difficulties in their relationship, with speculation about a possible separation attracting media attention.
By July, reports of a breakdown in the relationship had circulated, alongside claims of disagreements between the pair.
The developments also prompted speculation about a possible reconciliation between 2Baba and Annie.
However, Annie reportedly dismissed suggestions that she had reunited with the singer, making it clear that their separation should not be interpreted as a return to their marriage.
Birthday Tribute Sparks Reactions
The singer’s birthday message has generated conversations on social media, with some users interpreting it as a gesture of goodwill between the former couple, while others cautioned against reading deeper meaning into it.
Some commentators noted that the pair could maintain a cordial relationship despite their separation, particularly because they share children.
The singer’s brother and daughter, Isabella, were also reported to have celebrated Annie on her birthday.
For now, 2Baba’s message remains a public birthday tribute to the mother of his children and does not amount to confirmation of a reconciliation.
Nevertheless, the gesture has renewed public interest in the singer’s personal life and his relationships following the end of his marriage to Annie and reports surrounding his relationship with Natasha Osawaru.
