Saidi Balogun sprays money on his ex-wife, Fathia at Mercy Aigbe’s birthday party (Video)

It is no longer news that famous Nollywood actor Saidi Balogun and estranged wife, Fathia Williams are no longer together.

The reconciliation fever has caught the estranged couple as they danced together in public for the first time since their divorce four years ago.

The surprise dance between the Yoruba movie stars was one of the highpoints of Mercy Aigbe’s 40th birthday party which held on Monday, and it earned them a loud applause.

Saidi took it a notch higher when he proceeded to spray his ex-wife with cash nonstop as she danced to a music performance by Yoruba music artiste, Boyebest.

It appears that the couple are friendly exes following their divorce in 2006.

Watch the video below:

Erstwhile sworn enemies, the couple who interestingly are birthday mates, have been known to shun each other at events. Insiders also say they are known to reject roles that require them starring alongside each other.

Fathia was also conspicuously absent at Saidi’s 50th birthday celebration in July.

However, Saidi’s first wife, Sherifat Balogun, a singer, was in attendance in company with her kids, Zinnat and Jamal.

In November, Fathia reverted to her maiden name “Williams” four years after their divorce was finalised in 2014.

Shortly after his divorce, Saidi remarried Funke Elegushi, younger sister to Oba Saheed Elegushi of Ikate land, Lagos. The union also broke down.

Fathia Balogun while granting an interview back in 2017, spoke about how her failed married shocked her.

“Well, I have been through a lot of downs, but the biggest one that took me off my fits was when my marriage crashed. That was the biggest down for me,” she said.

Fathia Balogun also debunked rumours that she was back with Saheed Balogun as she said they are just friends since they have two kids together. She also said they say hello to each other once in a while. She also said fingers should be kept crossed when she was asked if there would be a possible reunion between herself and Saheed Balogun.

Fathia and Saidi wedded on September 2000 at the Ikorodu Marriage Registry in Lagos. The union produced two children. Fathia who was previously married had bore a child.
