March 03, (THEWILL) — Annie Macaulay has responded to fans after the end of her marriage to singer Tuface Idibia.
The couple, who were married for several years and share two children, separated in January 2025. Since then, their breakup, along with Tuface’s remarriage to Natasha Osawaru in the same year, has attracted significant media attention.
In a recent Instagram post, Annie rejected the label of “single mom” that has followed her since the split. Instead, she clarified that she prefers to be seen as a “single woman raising two kids.”
“I am not a single mom, I’m a single woman raising two kids,” she wrote, emphasizing her desire to define herself beyond her relationship status.
The post sparked mixed reactions, with some fans arguing her explanation was unnecessary, while others highlighted that a woman’s identity is defined by motherhood, not just her relationship status.
Her reintroduction also led to debates, particularly after she returned to using her ex-husband’s surname, despite previously referring to herself as “Annie Macaulay.”
Regardless of the differing opinions, many fans praised her strength as a mother raising two children.
Annie’s message emphasizes the importance of defining oneself beyond societal labels and embracing personal identity, irrespective of marital status.
