Fella Makafui and Medikal's divorce
The Serwaa movie premiere comes over a year after Fella Makafui and Medikal announced their separation after being a married couple for four years and welcoming their beautiful daughter, Island Frimpong, during their union.

The couple, who entered a romantic relationship shortly after Medikal split from his ex-girlfriend and musician Sister Deborah, got married in a plush traditional wedding in 2020.
Before their announcement on March 30, 2024, speculations about their marriage had become rife on social media for several months.
Following the end of their marriage, Medikal made allegations about his ex-wife in several social media rants.
He alleged that his ex-wife called the police on him after he attempted to kick her emboldened cousin, who had become a nuisance, out of his residence in East Legon, Accra.
The rapper later apologised for his numerous rants and shared that he and Fella Makafui would co-parent their daughter, Island Frimpong, together as they worked through their divorce process.
Medikal has since recovered from his marriage setback and entered a relationship with popular musician Eazzy.
