‎

‎Nollywood actor, Frederick Leonard, has chosen to maintain a quiet posture amid his ongoing divorce battle with his estranged wife, Peggy Ovire.

‎

‎ Daily NewsCraft reports that Leonard and Ovire were married in a traditional wedding ceremony held in November 2022 in Warri, Delta State.

‎

‎Ovire has publicly accused him of delaying their ongoing divorce proceedings and made allegations about circumstances she claims contributed to the breakdown of their marriage.

‎

‎The actress made the claims in a series of posts shared on her Instagram story on Tuesday, claiming that Leonard is deliberately avoiding court processes and stalling their divorce.

‎

‎“Please don’t avoid coming to the customary court on 23 June for the second time. You said you wanted a divorce, yet you didn’t show up when you were served,” she wrote in one of the posts.

‎

‎But Leonard has kept his personal reactions off his personal social media channels, generally refusing to publicly engage in online drama. Although his representatives have firmly denied the cheating claims.

‎

‎As of press time, Leonard had not publicly responded to Ovire’s allegations.

‎

‎A review of his social media pages showed that the actor was promoting his recently released movie, ‘Stolen Miracle.’
