Nollywood actor, Uzor Arukwe, has denied romantic rumours with actress and reality TV star, Bamike Olawunmi-Adenibuyan, known as Bambam, after their on-screen roles sparked speculation.
Arukwe spoke during an interview with BBC Igbo, explaining that he met Bambam for the first time on the set of their movie.
He stressed that their relationship remained strictly professional.
“Before I touched her, I asked her if there was any way I could touch her that her husband wouldn’t like or that might cause problems at home,” Arukwe said.
He further explained his approach to filming intimate scenes.
“I usually meet my female colleagues to ask them how far is too far? If I put my hands here, will your husband get annoyed? If I touch you in this manner, will your husband criticise it?” he said.
Arukwe stated that he made these requests to respect Bambam's marriage and avoid any issues at home.
After the movie's release, rumours spread online as some people claimed the pair had slept together and were secretly dating.
“That movie was the first time I had ever met her. But people started saying we slept together and were dating, which was completely false,” Arukwe said.
