Legendary Nigerian musician, 2Face Idibia, has reportedly been arrested in London.

2Face was said to have been arrested after a heated altercation with his new wife, Natasha Osawaru.

Popular Nigerian social critic, Tosin Silverdam made this known in a video on his Instagram page on Friday morning.

According to the driver who picked them from the airport, the couple started having the argument from the airport before getting to their hotel.

The argument was said to have escalated when Natasha allegedly broke bottles.

The report of the singer’s arrest is currently trending on social media as he failed to show up at his UK tour on Thursday October 2 2025.

2Face traditionally married Natasha, an Edo State lawmaker in July 2025, a few months after announcing divorce from his estranged wife, Annie Macaulay.
