The speculation, which ignited online debates, also reignited past claims made by Churchill’s former wife, actress Tonto Dikeh, who had similarly accused him of domestic violence during their marriage.
Meurer, in a detailed statement on Instagram, refuted the accusations, expressing her frustration with the false narrative spreading across social media.
"If you don't tell your side of the story, they will tell it for you in ways that suit them for the world to believe," she wrote. “I choose to speak up for myself. No one is allowed to tell my story. It’s my story, not yours.”

Meurer emphasized that while she typically ignores online rumors, this particular situation called for a response due to the involvement of her family and children. “Debunking has never been my thing... but because I have a family, I have children, and I have people that look up to me, I choose to speak up,” she said.
She also mocked the originators of the allegations, suggesting that they were fabrications meant to “keep the media space busy.” She strongly defended her husband, saying, “My husband never fit talk wetin dey him mouth finish, let alone beating a woman. MY HUSBAND IS NOT A WOMAN BEATER!”
The actress described the rumors as a continuation of a false narrative from the past and commended Churchill for remaining calm despite the attacks.
While Churchill had earlier dismissed the allegations, Rosy’s statement now adds a personal and emotional dimension to the controversy, shedding light on the mental toll of public scrutiny on celebrity families.
