Nollywood actress Peggy Ovire posted a video of her estranged husband, Frederick Leonard, and his purportedly married lover on Tuesday, calling them “shameless lots.”
She made this claim while posting a video of Frederick Leonard and his purported lover on her Instagram account.
She said, “Married woman o, shameless lots, please don’t avoid coming to customary court June 23rd for the second time.
“You said you wanted a divorce , yet you didn’t show up when you were served, please don’t avoid customary court for the 2nd time on June 23rd because I’m coming with receipts & let’s make this Divorce done & dusted. So both of you can finally be together.
“So called traditional Igbo man with another Igbo man’s wife with 4 children, you ran to a blogger that I was lying but when you were served & saw details of my petition, you knew I had seen 1 out of many, yet refused to show up in court but sent your lawyer.”

In November 2025, due to an alleged attack on a film set, actor Taye Arimoro vowed to sue his coworker Peggy Ovire, demanding a public apology and N100 million in damages.
According to reports, Peggy’s staff halted Taye’s car and deflated the tyres when he tried to leave the set after his contracted working hours had ended.
Taye accused Peggy and her group of physical abuse and posted a widely viewed video of his wounds, which included bleeding lips and gums.
Peggy refuted these accusations, saying Taye was the one who attacked two crew members, including her driver, who was bleeding.
CCTV footage later surfaced, appearing to contradict Peggy’s account, showing her removing her wig and preparing to engage in a fight with Taye.
Taye’s lawyers argue that his rights to personal liberty, movement, and dignity were breached, and he’s seeking damages for emotional trauma, psychological stress, and loss of earnings.
Arimoro captioned the post: “@peggyovire, PRE-ACTION NOTICE. In light of the incident referenced in this correspondence, you have been served. Kindly forward all responses to my solicitors as indicated”.
Peggy has been given a seven-day ultimatum to respond to the allegations or face further legal action.
