Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing Sunday has dismissed speculation that she has rekindled her romance with her former partner, Opeyemi Falegan, insisting that their recent reconciliation was strictly about making peace after years of public disagreement.
The actress addressed the rumours in a series of posts on her Instagram page, explaining how she eventually agreed to settle their differences with the businessman following their highly publicised breakup in 2022.
According to Nkechi, Falegan had been making efforts to resolve their disagreement since January 2026, but she insisted that he must publicly apologise on social media for his previous remarks about her before she would consider forgiving him.
She disclosed that the businessman eventually fulfilled her request, after which she also apologised to him.
Explaining her decision, the actress questioned why former lovers should remain enemies simply because their romantic relationship had ended.
She maintained that forgiving Falegan was a personal decision to put their past disagreement behind them and should not be interpreted as an indication that they were considering getting back together.
In one of her posts, Nkechi wrote:
“To Whom it May concern…I don’t tire to explain myself, like we are supposed to remain enemies for life? This man have been trying to make peace since January this year and I said to him you must go back to that same online and apologize before I hear anything. He did exactly what I asked I also apologized to him and everybody bear their father name, nothing like coming back together, not in this life or the next life..KALLAS!!!!!”
The actress also issued a separate clarification to address speculation about her relationship status, insisting that she had not reunited with any of her former partners.
In another Instagram post, she declared:
“For the very last time and for those that cares to listen, I DR. Nkechi Blessing Sunday is not back with any of her Ex’s both past, present and future ex… Let it be known.”
Her clarification comes days after she and Falegan appeared together during a TikTok live session, where the businessman publicly apologised for speaking negatively about her during their relationship crisis.
Their separation in April 2022 attracted widespread attention after both parties exchanged accusations online.
In September of the same year, Nkechi also revealed during an appearance on the television programme Your View that she had entered the relationship partly to make a former lover jealous. Falegan subsequently accused her of being interested in his money and sex.
The latest exchange between the former couple has therefore marked a move towards resolving their long-running public disagreement, although Nkechi has made it clear that forgiveness does not mean a romantic reunion.
