Social Media Romance Hits a Rough Patch
Popular Nigerian TikTok personality, Peller, appears to have hit a breaking point in his relationship with fellow content creator, Jadrolita, following a recent trip to Ghana that sparked rumors of infidelity.
Peller, 19, who made headlines last December when he publicly proposed to 23-year-old Jadrolita, was seen in viral clips getting overly familiar with another young woman during his time in Accra. The footage has since fueled intense speculation among fans and followers, leading to what now seems to be an emotional and public split between the two.
Jadrolita Responds in Emotional TikTok Live
Reacting to the controversial video during a live session on TikTok, Jadrolita didn’t hold back her disappointment, confirming that the relationship had likely come to an end.
In her words:
“Most people have been saying I’m older than you in this relationship, which is fine. But I ignored that, and I followed my heart. Now that I followed my heart, you are saying they paid you to do this, to do that?”
Visibly emotional during the livestream, she added:
“I’m telling you I cannot be with you. Continue with your streaming and do whatever you want. Go and meet someone else that will tolerate such nonsense. Focus on the girls. I won’t hate you—we remain cool and can be business partners in the industry.”
Peller Claims He Was Paid to Be in the Video
In an attempt to defend his actions, Peller explained that the interaction with the unidentified Ghanaian girl was strictly business. He claimed he was paid to appear in her content to help grow her social media presence.
“It’s not my fault,” he said during a separate TikTok video.
“I was paid to do it to help her get more followers. They paid for it.”
However, his explanation did little to calm the situation, with many fans accusing him of being disrespectful toward Jadrolita, especially considering the history and public nature of their romance.
Tensions Escalate: “I Will Block You Everywhere”
Things escalated quickly between the duo as Peller, in a follow-up video, responded to Jadrolita’s remarks with frustration and a threat to cut her off entirely.
“I will block you everywhere. I don’t want it again. You are mad,” he exclaimed, sparking backlash online from viewers who felt he was being dismissive and immature.
His comment immediately trended across TikTok and other social platforms, with thousands of users debating whether the couple had truly broken up or were simply generating content for clout.
The Age Factor and Public Perception
One of the recurring themes in the controversy is the age difference between the two. With Jadrolita being four years older, the couple had faced criticism from certain corners of the internet since they made their relationship public.
While many fans have celebrated their openness and romantic displays, others had predicted the age gap might cause problems in the long run. Still, both had previously dismissed the criticism, with Jadrolita often saying she followed her heart regardless of public opinion.
“We both knew what we were getting into. We love each other, and that’s all that matters,” she once said in a joint interview they had earlier this year.
From Internet Darlings to Drama-Fueled Headlines
Since their relationship became public, Peller and Jadrolita had become something of a power couple in the Nigerian TikTok scene, frequently appearing in each other’s videos, sharing couple skits, and engaging in live interactions with fans.
Their engagement, which took place in December 2024, was viewed by many as a fairy-tale moment. Peller got down on one knee during a TikTok live session, presenting Jadrolita with a ring in what fans described as a heartfelt proposal.
However, the recent developments mark a sharp turn from that romantic narrative. The couple’s online presence has now shifted from loving skits to emotionally charged videos filled with accusations, defenses, and public fallout.
Fan Reactions Split Between Support and Criticism
The online reaction to the saga has been divided. Some fans sympathize with Jadrolita, believing she was blindsided by Peller’s actions and deserves better.
“Jadrolita really loved this boy,” one TikTok user commented. “You can see she’s hurt, but still trying to stay respectful.”
Others, however, defended Peller’s claim that it was just business.
“If he was paid for the video and there was no real romance, then this is all a misunderstanding,” another fan wrote. “They should settle this privately.”
Meanwhile, others accuse the couple of orchestrating the drama for content and clout, given the growing trend of creators using personal controversies to drive views and engagement.
What’s Next for Peller and Jadrolita?
With emotions still running high, it’s unclear whether this marks a definitive end to the couple’s romantic journey or just a temporary storm in the spotlight. While both have hinted at moving on, Jadrolita’s statement that they “can remain business partners in the industry” leaves room for a possible working relationship moving forward.
Both Peller and Jadrolita have yet to make official statements regarding the status of their engagement or whether they intend to reunite or part ways permanently.
For now, fans remain glued to their profiles, waiting to see the next chapter in what has become one of Nigeria’s most-followed TikTok love stories turned drama.
