Actress Motunde Breaks Silence on Shocking Pregnancy Rumour With Mr Macaroni

Nollywood actress Omotunde Sogunle, popularly known as Motunde from Mr Macaroni’s comedy skits, has opened up about a false pregnancy rumour that once left her deeply shaken.

In a recent interview, she recalled being accused of getting pregnant for her on-screen father, comedian Mr Macaroni, and allegedly terminating the pregnancy a claim she described as both “shocking and impossible.”

“They said I got pregnant for my on-screen daddy, Mr Macaroni, and that I aborted it. I was shocked. When did that happen? It’s not possible. Must people assume there’s more going on just because of a working relationship? I was really devastated then,” she said.

Motunde explained that she has since moved past the scandal and even jokes about it with Mr Macaroni. One key lesson she learned from him, she added, is the value of silence: staying quiet helps preserve peace of mind, as responding to false stories only fuels them further.

The actress said the episode made her more resilient and better prepared to handle controversies in the entertainment industry.

Despite the challenges, she has continued to grow her fan base, thanks to her popular role as Mr Macaroni’s on-screen daughter.
