Nollywood actress Annie Macaulay Idibia has set social media abuzz after sharing clips of an elaborate Valentine’s Day surprise, fuelling speculation that she may have found love again following her widely publicised separation from music icon 2Baba.
In videos posted to her Instagram story, Annie was seen walking into a living room beautifully decorated with red roses, heart-shaped balloons — including one with the inscription “Hooked on you” — a giant teddy bear, and luxury gift items reportedly including a new iPhone. The actress appeared visibly stunned and emotional as she tried to process the romantic gesture.
At first, Annie repeatedly questioned whether her management team had orchestrated the setup. It was later revealed that the surprise came from a mystery admirer, with assistance from her manager in coordinating the delivery and decoration. Clearly overwhelmed, the actress expressed gratitude and noted that love is often reflected in thoughtful gestures.
The viral clips quickly generated reactions across social media platforms, with many fans celebrating what they described as a “new beginning” for the actress. Supporters flooded comment sections with congratulatory messages, while others speculated about the identity of the man behind the gifts. Some online users mentioned celebrity stylist Swanky Jerry in their guesses, though there has been no confirmation linking him to the surprise.
Annie’s apparent romantic development comes months after her separation from 2Baba, whose marriage to the actress officially ended in early 2025. The pair, who married in 2013 and share two daughters, had one of the most talked-about celebrity unions in Nigeria, often making headlines due to public controversies and personal revelations.
Following the split, 2Baba moved on and later married Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawaru, with reports confirming that the couple have since welcomed a child together. Meanwhile, Annie largely stepped back from public engagement, reducing her social media presence and sharing occasional reflective posts about healing, strength, and self-worth.
