Tima Kumkum sparks divorce rumours

On January 4, 2026, Tima Kumkum made headlines after rumours spread that she had opted out of her marriage.

The speculation was triggered by a caption she preferred for one of her fun videos taken during a trip.

"Sometimes the signs are not hidden; they are loud. A person who truly wants to change will make the effort because they want to, not because you begged. When someone expects you to constantly adjust to a lifestyle that drains you, dismisses your values, or feels inhumane to your spirit, that is clarity, not confusion," the presenter wrote.

She further dropped some advice to her fans and followers, saying;

"Pay attention to patterns, not promises. You will always know when you are not wanted; energy never lies. And when the red flags stop whispering and start shaking hard, choose yourself. Leaving is not weakness; it is wisdom. Protect your peace. Always."

Ghanaians reacted to the caption, stating that the message didn't match the content of the video, suggesting there was something deeper going on.

Delay speaks on Tima Kumkum's alleged divorce

Speaking on 'The Delay Show', the presenter broke her silence on the reported divorce of her colleague.

According to Delay, she is not too sure whether Tima Kumkum and her husband have gone their separate ways, but if they are still together, then it's all good. She further played down the frenzy, insisting that if the rumours are true, then the issue should not be considered to be a big deal.

She further asserted that she doesn't have a problem with Tima. However, what caught the attention of many people was a comment she made claiming that something happened at Tima Kumkum's wedding that made her (Delay) realise that her husband would be a problem.

Delay claimed that she watched the videos from the event and concluded something was off with Tima's husband. She based her argument on the mannerisms displayed by the man while he was dancing, insisting that they left her with question marks.
