Nollywood Buzz: Rotimi Salami Reacts To Romance Claims Involving Allwell Ademola

Speaking in an interview with Oyinmomo TV, Salami dismissed the reports, saying he does not pay attention to gossip about his personal life. He added that he only became aware of the rumour after Ademola once contacted him to ask about what people were saying.

According to him, he simply told her he was unaware of any such talk and does not engage with rumours.

Salami stressed that public speculation does not influence how he relates with colleagues, noting that he remains focused on his career and avoids distractions from industry gossip.

He also said his marriage remains his top priority, adding that he would distance himself from any relationship or friendship if his wife ever felt uncomfortable with it, since she comes first in his personal life.

“I told her I did not hear about it, and I truly do not listen to people,” he said. “If my wife says she was not comfortable with our relationship, I would withdraw because she is the only person I am answerable to.”

The actor also reflected on Ademola’s passing in December 2025 at the age of 49, following a cardiac arrest at her home, describing the news as painful and unexpected.

He noted that she had been managing an existing health condition and was known to take her asthma seriously, often keeping her inhaler close and encouraging others to prioritise their health.

“She’s been asthmatic, doesn’t joke with her health or medications, always cautious and always had her inhaler. She always told people to take care of their health. I just believed it was her time,” he said.
