Nigerian TikTok content creator Habeeb Hamzat, widely known as Peller, has rubbished widespread speculation that his fiancée, Jarvis, is expecting their first child, insisting the couple has no immediate plans to start a family.

Speculations about Jarvis’ alleged pregnancy have circulated across social media in recent weeks, with many users claiming that recent photos and videos of the influencer suggested she was showing a baby bump.

The speculation intensified after footage of the couple shopping for their wedding asoebi fabric surfaced online.

Some social media users pointed to Jarvis’ appearance in the video, alleging that her stomach looked noticeably larger and concluding that she might be pregnant.

Addressing the claims during a livestream, Peller firmly denied the rumours, describing them as false and urging fans to stop spreading unverified information about their personal lives.

According to the social media personality, he and Jarvis have agreed to focus on building their careers and financial stability before considering parenthood.

Expressing his frustration over the persistent speculation, Peller explained that people had misinterpreted Jarvis’ appearance, stating that her stomach looked bigger simply because she had eaten late at night rather than because she was pregnant.

“I’m vexed that people are saying you’re pregnant. Can a pregnant woman cook at this time? I will get her pregnant, but right now, I’m still making a token for myself. I’m not ready for a baby,” he said.

He added that becoming financially successful remains his priority before taking on the responsibilities of raising children.

“I have to be making billions before thinking about pregnancy. Don’t put any pregnancy on my head. It’s late-night food that’s causing that big stomach,” he added.

Peller’s comments have since generated mixed reactions online, with some fans praising him for being open about his plans and emphasising the importance of financial preparedness before starting a family. Others, however, criticised the growing culture of speculating about the private lives of public figures based solely on their appearance.

The couple, who are among Nigeria’s most followed social media personalities, have continued to attract public attention since announcing their engagement.Geographic Reference

Peller proposed to Jarvis during a romantic trip to Ghana, a moment that quickly went viral across several social media platforms.

Shortly after the engagement, he also revealed that he had paid Jarvis’ bride price, signalling another major step toward their planned wedding and further exciting fans who have closely followed their relationship.

Despite the excitement surrounding their upcoming marriage, Peller has made it clear that becoming parents is a decision the couple intends to make only when they both feel fully prepared.

Celebrity lawyer Rita Amy Aduba has weighed in on the reported child custody dispute involving actress Regina Daniels and her estranged husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, explaining the conditions the actress must reportedly meet before gaining access to their two sons.

Speaking in a video, Aduba said she reviewed a 15-page High Court judgment, which she claimed granted Regina supervised access to the children rather than denying her visitation rights.

According to the lawyer, the court ordered that Regina’s visits be supervised by the Abuja Social Welfare Office, stressing that neither parent should be excluded from the children’s lives.

Aduba listed the reported conditions contained in the judgment as follows:
Regina’s access to the children must be supervised by the Abuja Social Welfare Office.

The visits must ensure the children are protected from harm.

She is reportedly prohibited from bringing the children into contact with four named individuals: Samuel Ojeugu, Destiny Ojeofo, Ngozi Aniote Izuegu and Ijeoma Josephine Otabofina, popularly known as Phyna.

Temporary custody of the children remains with Senator Ned Nwoko pending the determination of the case.

Regina is required to undergo confirmatory drug tests at designated laboratories to establish that she is free from substance abuse.

She must also demonstrate that she is mentally fit during visits with the children.

Aduba maintained that the court’s decision was aimed at protecting the welfare of the children while preserving the parental rights of both parties.

Miss Universe Nigeria, Chidimma Adetshina, is facing possible deportation from South Africa after the country’s Department of Home Affairs alleged that she is living in the country without legal status.

The 25-year-old appeared before the Cape Town Regional Court on June 9 after being arrested in the Summer Greens area. She was released on warning and is expected to return to court on July 16 as immigration authorities continue legal proceedings seeking her deportation.

According to court documents, immigration officer Adrian Jackson said officials found Adetshina and her minor son during an investigation and determined that neither currently holds valid legal status to remain in South Africa.

Jackson said officials interviewed Adetshina and searched the department’s records before concluding that she has no lawful residential status. He asked the court to confirm her detention for deportation.

The case follows an earlier decision by Home Affairs Minister Dr. Leon Schreiber, who in March dismissed Adetshina’s application to review the refusal of her request for a letter of good cause.

According to the minister, Adetshina was informed in September 2024 of plans to cancel her and her son’s South African identity documents but failed to respond.

Schreiber further alleged that she obtained a Nigerian passport before applying for a South African visitor’s visa, which was rejected after officials claimed she submitted a fraudulent bank statement. He said she did not appeal the decision and was later declared a prohibited person under South African immigration laws.

The minister also alleged that Adetshina later entered South Africa through the Lebombo border from Mozambique while presenting herself as a South African citizen. He added that her son’s immigration status depends on hers.

As part of her release conditions, Adetshina must remain at the address where she was arrested and notify immigration authorities of any changes to her residence, employment or movements while the case is pending.
