Gospel musician and media personality Empress Gifty has attributed the reported breakdown of actor Harold Amenyah’s marriage to the intense criticism and bullying the couple faced on social media following their wedding.
Speaking during a TikTok live session, Empress Gifty expressed concern about the negative comments directed at Harold Amenyah and his wife, Irene Boakye, after they tied the knot in April 2023.
According to her, many social media users unfairly targeted Irene Boakye, making disparaging remarks about her appearance and social status, while questioning the actor’s choice of partner.
Her comments come amid reports that Harold Amenyah and Irene Boakye have ended their marriage after nearly two years together. Speculation about the separation emerged after the couple reportedly removed photos of each other from their social media accounts and shared posts that hinted at challenges in their relationship.
Although neither Harold Amenyah nor Irene Boakye has publicly confirmed the reasons behind the reported split, Empress Gifty believes the persistent online attacks may have contributed to the collapse of the marriage.
Reflecting on the public reaction to the wedding, she lamented what she described as the harsh treatment the couple endured from sections of the public.
The development has reignited conversations about the impact of social media criticism on public figures and their personal relationships, with many calling for greater responsibility and empathy in online discussions.
Harold Amenyah remains one of Ghana’s well-known actors, having featured in several Kumawood and mainstream film productions throughout his career.
