Uzor Arukwe, Bam Bam continue on-screen love amid dating rumours

Despite swirling rumours about tension in her marriage, actress and former Big Brother Naija star, Olawunmi Adenibuyan, popularly known as Bam Bam or ‘Achalugo’, has continued to set screens alight alongside actor Uzor Arukwe, aka ‘Odogwu, Paranran’.

The duo recently starred in the romantic film, Without You, released just ahead of Valentine’s Day, portraying co-leads navigating love, loss, and emotional reconnection. Clips and behind-the-scenes moments have since gone viral, reigniting debates about Bam Bam’s personal life.

Fans remain divided: some praise their professionalism, while others suggest that the timing—amid reported marital tension with husband Teddy A—makes their collaboration more sensitive.

Their on-screen chemistry first drew attention in the drama, Love in Every Word, produced by Omoni Oboli.

Speculation around Bam Bam and Teddy A began in December after separate photo shoots and intensified when fans noticed they no longer follow each other on Instagram. On Valentine’s Day, Teddy A shared solo photos holding a red rose, accompanied by a cryptic caption, prompting online chatter.

Meanwhile, Arukwe has remained unfazed by online critics. When a fan suggested he avoid working with Bam Bam until her marital issues were resolved, he replied, “That’s why you’re not me.” He also cautioned against unfounded allegations, refusing to be made a scapegoat for the couple’s speculated troubles.

Bam Bam and Teddy A met during the 2018 edition of Big Brother Naija and tied the knot in Dubai in 2019. Their relationship, often shared publicly, has been under constant scrutiny. Bam Bam’s recent rise in Nollywood, particularly in romantic roles, has only fueled online speculation.

For now, the couple has remained silent about the social media unfollowing and mounting rumours. Meanwhile, fans continue to scrutinize their posts, appearances, and on-screen collaborations for clues.
