An old video of Annie Macaulay appearing to subtly respond to the long standing speculation surrounding her relationship with her estranged husband, 2Baba, has resurfaced online.
It gained traction on Instagram on Saturday, 18 July 2026. Many social media users believe the remarks reflected her own personal experiences.
In the video, Annie is seen holding a book as she openly discusses a period of personal reflection and emotional growth.
According to her, the book transformed the way she viewed love and self worth, especially because it encourages women to value themselves instead of making them feel guilty for remaining in relationships or situations that no longer benefit them.
“This book doesn’t shame us or blame us; it makes us realise that we stay in a place where we are tolerated when we are supposed to be in a place where we are celebrated,” she said.
Annie Macaulay on knowing your worth
The mother of two also spoke about the importance of recognising one’s value, stressing that women deserve more than merely existing in relationships or environments where they are not fully appreciated.
“Do you know your worth, your values? You deserve better than just being present, but in a place where you are supposed to reign,” she added.
The clip began circulating again on social media only days after reports suggested that Annie and 2Baba, whose real name is Innocent Idibia, had reconciled after several months of highly publicised strain in their relationship.
Although Annie has remained silent on the speculation surrounding a possible reunion, many followers interpreted the timing and message in the resurfaced video as significant.
Annie Macaulay is a Nigerian actress and model, widely recognised for her work in Nollywood and for her marriage to Afrobeats icon 2Baba.
Their marriage has attracted widespread public attention over the years, with Annie previously opening up about the emotional challenges she experienced during the relationship.
