TikToker Asantewaa (real name Martina Dwamena) and her younger brother Kay Verli are in the middle of a
public falling-out that started with her breakup announcement and has since pulled in a hospital incident, a
suicide scare, and a leaked phone call. As of July 20, 2026, the two have not reconciled, and new claims are
still surfacing almost daily.
Asantewaa announced her split from baby daddy AMG Armani, Kay Verli publicly criticised how she handled it,
she fired back revealing he'd blocked her and allegedly had her thrown out of a hospital, and it's now
spilled into leaked audio involving her estranged husband. Below is the full timeline and what's actually
confirmed versus what's still just claims.
How It Started
Around July 13, 2026, Asantewaa confirmed on a TikTok Live, visibly emotional, that her relationship with musician AMG Armani, the father of her child, had ended. Instead of sympathy from her own family, Kay Verli went on Snapchat and accused her of "shedding crocodile tears" to farm public sympathy, according to a post cited by GhPage. He also questioned how often she actually sees her kids, claiming they're well cared for by their father, and urged her to stop treating the breakup as content.
The Fallout Deepens
Asantewaa responded directly, defending herself and referencing sacrifices she says she's made for her
family, in a post later deleted but captured by Instagram blogger ThoseCalledCelebs, per YEN. That should
have been the end of it. It wasn't.
On July 15, Asantewaa went live again, this time in tears, and made the dispute personal. She said Kay Verli
had blocked her on every social media platform without explanation, and alleged that when she visited him at
Ridge Hospital in Accra during a recent admission, he had a nurse turn her away on his orders. During that
same emotional live, she made a remark that alarmed viewers - telling her audience "you won't see me alive,"
language several outlets flagged as a suicide-adjacent statement amid the distress of the family rift.
Kay Verli responded on Snapchat, denying he'd lied about their relationship and disputing her account of
their childhood. He has since addressed the hospital claim directly too, in a TikTok Live of his own. His
version: when Asantewaa came to see him on admission, she made a comment he took as her assuming she was
there to even pay his morgue fee - a remark he described as heartbreaking, and one he says shaped how he reacted
to her visit. That account hasn't been addressed by Asantewaa, so it's now her turn to respond to his side
of the hospital story.
The Leaked Call
The story escalated again on July 18 when audio allegedly involving Kay Verli and Asantewaa's estranged husband, Jeffery Obiri Yeboah, began circulating online. In it, Jeffery reportedly speaks about sleepless nights since their separation and claims his own family distanced themselves from him after Asantewaa's relationship with Armani went public. Neither Kay Verli nor Jeffery has confirmed the recording is authentic, and Filladey has not independently verified it - treat this one as unconfirmed until one of them addresses it directly.
What This Says About Ghana's Influencer Family Drama
What makes this one different from the usual Ghanaian celebrity breakup story is that it isn't a couple
fighting for the timeline - it's blood. Ghanaians have watched influencer romances implode online for
content before, but a sibling turning that same public stage into a platform to discredit his own sister is
rarer, and it's landed harder because of it.
Who's actually managing Asantewaa's brand while this plays out? Her breakup content, the family fallout, and
now a leaked call involving her ex-husband are all happening on the same public timeline she uses for
sponsored posts and skits. For a creator whose income depends on audience goodwill, that's not just a family
matter - it's a business risk.
Whatever's actually going on between the siblings, one thing has become clear over the past week: neither of
them is backing down from saying it publicly, and that's exactly what's keeping this story alive.
