Nigerian music legend 2Face Idibia, also known as 2Baba, has officially tied the knot with Natasha Osawaru, a young Edo State lawmaker, just months after his public separation from longtime partner Annie Macaulay Idibia.
The wedding, which took place on July 25, 2025, in Abuja, was a private traditional ceremony attended by close family and elders.
Photos from the event surfaced online earlier this week, showing the couple dressed in rich traditional attire, beaming as they cut a cake together. The ceremony was intimate, with no major media presence, in contrast to the high-profile attention surrounding his previous relationship.
This new chapter comes after a whirlwind timeline that left fans both stunned and divided. In January 2025, 2Face announced his divorce from Annie, his wife of nearly 12 years. The couple had shared a tumultuous but iconic love story, often referenced in his music and admired publicly, though frequently clouded by controversy and rumors of infidelity.
Only weeks after the separation, in February, 2Face publicly proposed to Natasha, sparking massive conversations online.
Adding weight to the relationship, 2Face formally introduced Natasha to the Idoma traditional council in April. This cultural rite symbolized his intent to honor his roots and secure traditional blessings before marriage. At the ceremony, Natasha reportedly accepted the Idibia surname, signaling full integration into the family and culture.
The wedding now marks the formal culmination of their relationship’s rapid yet culturally anchored progression.
Some longtime fans of Annie have voiced their disappointment, recalling her loyalty and public support for 2Face over the years. “This feels too fast. She stood by him when no one did,” one commenter wrote under a trending post.
Still, others argue that the singer’s private life should be respected and that no one truly knows what unfolded behind closed doors.
2Face, now 49, has long been a symbol of Nigerian music culture, with his personal life often unfolding in tandem with his career. With this latest move, he seems to be choosing a quieter, more personal path forward—one grounded in tradition, yet unafraid of new beginnings.
