MzGee Confirms Divorce, Clarifies Child’s Paternity

Ghanaian media personality Gloria Akpene Nyarku, popularly known as MzGee, has confirmed her divorce from journalist Raymond Acquah, revealing that her newborn child is not linked to her former marriage.

Addressing the public in a video, MzGee disclosed that she and Acquah separated three years ago and officially finalized their divorce two years ago. She emphasized that her ex-husband has no connection to her recent pregnancy, dispelling widespread speculation.

“My name is Gloria Akpene Nyarku. I have no documentation that bears the name Acquah. I know that, once upon a time, you knew of a certain Raymond Acquah whom I was married to. Unfortunately, I have been separated from Raymond Acquah for three years,” she stated.

MzGee, who gained prominence as a television host and entertainment journalist, married Acquah in 2017 in a high-profile ceremony attended by several celebrities. However, their marriage ended after years of separation, with MzGee now requesting that her ex-husband’s name no longer be attached to hers.

The revelation sparked intense public debate, especially after she referred to Acquah as “a certain Mr. Acquah.” Many interpreted the phrase as dismissive, fueling discussions about the identity of her child’s father and whether she was in a new relationship.

Following the backlash, MzGee issued an apology, clarifying that her choice of words was not meant to be disrespectful.

“Please, I am not married. Oh, please! I have massive respect for Raymond Acquah. I did not consider how the word ‘certain’ might be perceived. I sincerely apologize if it sounded derogatory. Truthfully, if not for the need to clarify my child’s paternity, you would not have heard a word from me. So please, ignore the grammar,” she explained.

MzGee, who relocated to the United States last year before giving birth, stressed that her intention was to set the record straight and urged the media to stop associating her name with Acquah. She made it clear that she is no longer legally connected to him and wants to move forward independently.

As the discussion around her revelation continues, MzGee has urged the public and bloggers to respect her privacy and refrain from spreading misinformation about her personal life.
