Proverb and wife call it quits, to divorce

The 'Idols' presenter and his wife of ten years have decided to go their separate ways after a cheating scandal which recently rocked their relationship.

Proverb's wife, Onalerona Tekisho announced on her personal Facebook account that the divorce order had been granted and she and Proverb were parting amicably.

The post read: "Thank you for all the support and love that you have shown me. Today marks a new beginning for all of us. The divorce order has been granted.

"Through Gods grace and faith, I believe that God will continue to be faithful to us and lead in our lives. My prayer is for us to continue to have the heart to always forgive and cherish every new day that God blesses us with."

The post has since been deleted off her Facebook page.

Onalerona has resorted back to her maiden name of Moreo. The couple made headlines when it was revealed in September that Onalerona had an affair with a businessman, Edwin Sodi.

The pair are said to have met at a car wash two years ago and had traveled to Dubai together under the guise of a business trip. At first Proverb refuted the claims but later backtracked and admitted his wife had cheated on him.

He took to Twitter to confirm the affair and asked for privacy and for people to not react to harshly towards his wife. It also seemed Proverb and Onalerona were trying to work things out as they would both upload images of themselves together on their Instagram accounts.

But an interview with Drum magazine revealed Proverb was considering divorce. He told the weekly he could not continue to be married to Onalerona and it was over between them. Proverb later denied giving the interview but the magazine stood by its story.

Proverb and Onalerona share two children together and met when she was in high school.
