Monday, April 13, 2026 - Comedian, Basketmouth’s ex-wife, Elsie Okpocha, has threatened to sue anyone spreading false news about her failed marriage.
The couple got married in November 2010 and broke up in 2022
December.
Basketmouth, who announced the end of their in an Instagram
post, claimed that the decision was sequel to much deliberations between the
two of them.
But the claims of the paternity fraud surfaced on social
media a month ago after a blog reported that Basketmouth during an interview
allegedly disclosed that DNA results of their first child led to their divorce.
Reacting to the controversy on Saturday in a letter by her
legal representative, Primeview Legal, Elsie denied the paternity fraud
allegation and warned the public to desist from “false and unfounded”
publications.
She further threatened to sue any individual or blogs found
guilty of spreading such news for defamation, and invasion of privacy.
Expressing concerns over the psychological effects of such
reports on her first child, she said in the legal letter shared on her
Instagram page “some innocent members of the public may take such publications
as the true state of things in the marriage and begin to bully their son on and
off social media spaces with the consequential psychological trauma that will
be inflicted on him, hence this intervention.”
