Former BBNaija housemate and reality TV star, Queen Mercy Atang, alongside her husband, David Oyekanmi, have once again stirred fresh speculations of marital issues as they unfollowed each other on Instagram, fueling talks of trouble in their young marriage.
It will be recalled that the couple, who officially tied the knot in a glamorous wedding ceremony held on March 16, 2024, first sparked rumors of a marital crisis in October 2024 after unfollowing each other on Instagram and deleting their wedding pictures from their social media pages. This sudden move had led to widespread speculation among fans and followers about the state of their union.
However, in an interview granted by Queen Mercy in June 2025, she openly addressed the issue and clarified that her decision to unfollow her husband and take down wedding photos was a protective measure intended to shield her marriage from undue public scrutiny and unnecessary intrusion. According to her, the move was not a sign of trouble but rather a way to ensure privacy.
Following her explanation, the couple reconciled publicly on social media and re-followed each other on Instagram, seemingly putting to rest the rumors of a possible separation.
Nonetheless, a fresh check conducted by Gistreel has revealed that the pair have once again unfollowed each other on Instagram, reigniting suspicions that all may not be well in their marriage. At the time of this report, the exact reason for their latest action remains undisclosed, but fans are already buzzing with questions and theories about what might have gone wrong this time.
The alleged crisis further gained traction after David Oyekanmi shared a cryptic post on his X (formerly Twitter) page. In the post, he dropped a piece of relationship advice that many believe may be indirectly linked to their situation. The post read: “Heal before you date. Otherwise, your wounds will pick your partner.” This message has left netizens speculating that the tension in their relationship might be deeper than initially thought.
