“Thank you, Jesus; it is done” – Peggy Ovire celebrates as she finalises divorce from ex-husband, Frederick Leonard

Nollywood actress Peggy Ovire has sparked reactions after hinting that her divorce from her estranged husband, Frederick Leonard, has finally been concluded.

Taking to her Instagram Story, the actress expressed gratitude to God, sharing a brief message that many interpreted as confirmation that the legal process had come to an end.

“Thank you, Jesus. It is done,” she wrote.

Peggy also reposted a congratulatory message from her colleague, Angela Eguavoen, who celebrated the development with the words, “My queen is free!! Hallelujah.”

The latest update comes months after Peggy publicly accused Frederick of having an affair with a married woman with children. She also alleged that the actor repeatedly delayed their divorce proceedings by failing to appear in court after being served legal papers.

At the time, Peggy shared a video showing Frederick alongside his alleged lover at a public event, urging him not to miss another customary court hearing.

Earlier this year, Frederick appeared to hint at a new chapter in his life while celebrating his birthday, saying he had discovered a happier version of himself.

Around the same period, Peggy shared a cryptic post stating that she had chosen herself, a message many fans believed was directed at the actor.

The pair got married in a star-studded traditional wedding ceremony in Asaba, Delta State, on November 19, 2022.

As of the time of filing this report, neither Peggy Ovire nor Frederick Leonard has publicly provided further details about the divorce beyond their social media posts.
