Media personality Toke Makinwa has seemingly addressed rumours surrounding her alleged marriage to longtime friend Farouk Umar.

Clips from her birthday thanksgiving on Sunday surfaced online, sparking speculations that the two had tied the knot.

In the videos, Toke and Farouk were dressed in white.

Social media buzzed with congratulatory messages.

However, the media personality clarified the situation by sharing a video from the event on social media captioned “Thanksgiving service”.

In a previous post, she reflected on a prophecy she received years ago, which stated that “eyes have not seen, ears have not heard what God is about to do” in her life.

She said she was unsure of her path at the time the prophecy was made, adding that it has come to fruition.

“Today I testify of His goodness. Happy TM Thanksgiving day… Counting down to my birthday,” Toke added.

Toke will be celebrating her 40th birthday on November 3.

Reports suggest that Farouk Umar was previously in a romantic relationship with actress Sharon Ooja.

Among celebrities present at the event were Kate Henshaw, Enioluwa Adeoluwa and BBNaija’s Wanni, Handi and Liquorose.

Toke married fitness entrepreneur Maje Ayida in 2014. They separated in 2015 after she allegedly discovered he fathered a child with his ex-girlfriend.
