Legit.ng earlier reported that Peggy Ovire has sparked speculations about her marriage on social media with a bold question she recently asked.

Peggy Ovire, who is known to be married to actor Frederick Leonard, took to social media on Sunday, February 8, to ask fellow women what they would do if they found out their man was having an affair with a married woman with kids.

In a lengthy post on her Instagram page, the actress noted that when the man was asked about it, he denied it, saying they were just friends, and the woman completely believed him.

She stated that the woman finally got evidence and discovered that her husband and the lady were never just friends, but had been sleeping together.

Peggy added that the irony was that the man judges and castigates single women who sleep with married men.

See her post below:

“What will you do if you find out that the man you are dating is sleeping with a married woman with kids? You asked him about it, but he totally denies it, saying they are just friends, and you completely believed him. You eventually got married to him. Your husband always hypes the married woman in public, but privately he tells you how local this friend of his is, just to manipulate you so you will not suspect a thing,” she wrote in part.

While she didn’t make reference to anyone, netizens quickly interpreted her post, with many linking it to her marriage with Leonard amid rumours about their union.
