Nigerian comedian and award-winning skit maker Chukwuemeka Ejekwu, popularly known as Sabinus or Mr Funny, has finally confirmed the swirling rumours about the end of his marriage to his UK-based partner, Ciana Chapman.
The comedian addressed the situation during a TikTok Live session with fellow entertainer Carter Efe, where he clarified that he is no longer married, emphasizing that the separation happened peacefully and without drama.
“My Marriage Ended Peacefully” – Sabinus Speaks
Responding directly to viral claims and ongoing speculation, Sabinus stated clearly:
“I’m not married. For those carrying rumours, I am not married. My marriage ended peacefully. The mum and I are good. My daughter is okay, and she is doing fine.”
This marks the first time the comic star is openly acknowledging the status of his relationship since reports of marital issues surfaced in 2024.
Background: A Quiet Marriage, A Quiet Breakup
Sabinus and Ciana reportedly tied the knot in a private ceremony in 2023, keeping their marriage largely away from the public eye.
However, by mid-2024, rumours of cracks in the relationship began spreading online, especially after the couple unfollowed each other on social media and stopped appearing together publicly.
With this official confirmation, fans now have clarity on the matter.
Co-Parenting and a Peaceful Relationship With His Daughter’s Mother
Sabinus made it clear that despite the end of the marriage, he and his former partner maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship.
He noted that their priority is their daughter’s well-being, and there is no animosity between them.
