Chronicles of Afua Asantewaa's marital troubles
Speculation about Afua Asantewaa's marriage became rife in July 2025, after she shared a confusing video on social media.
In the video, the media personality showcased a tall, attractive young man decked out in trendy gym attire, whom she described as her ideal man.
This fitness enthusiast demonstrated his well-toned physique by removing his shirt to show impressive abs, making sure to capture the essence of the current workout trend.
While sharing the clip of her ideal man, Afua Asantewaa also gave a glimpse of her actual husband, Kofi Owusu, a prominent sports journalist in Ghana.
In contrast to the gym model, he sported a more understated look, featuring a simple brown short-sleeved shirt paired with a brown knitted vest and matching brown trousers.
His outfit was completed with stylish sneakers, exuding confidence as he walked gracefully in the video.
The video sparked rumours of the former Guinness World Record (GWR) participant divorcing her husband and relocating abroad after many years as a couple.
