Asamoah Gyan’s marriage with Gifty was annuled in October 2023
Media personality Afia Pokua, well known as Vim Lady, has disclosed that legendary Ghanaian footballer Asamoah Gyan‘s divorce case has been referenced during a recent court hearing.
According to her, a Circuit Court Judge made reference to the former Sunderland striker’s divorce case, where it was revealed that his ex-wife Gifty was married before marrying the superstar.
Vim Lady further revealed that the Black Stars’ all-time top scorer was able to substantiate his claims that his ex-wife had been married before their encounter.
Hence, per the Matrimonial Act, their marriage was declared null and void.
“A circuit court judge has referenced the Gyan divorce case. Gyan claimed that his wife was married but lied to him that she was single when they met, only to find out later that she was married. The judge said that it was proven that the lady was indeed married, but her ignorance about her marital status was considered.
“Section 13 of the Matrimonial Causes Act states that if you’re ignorant about something and later discover it, the marriage can be declared null and void,” Vim Lady said in a video shared on her TikTok page on August 31, 2025.
Gyan’s marriage to Gifty was formally annulled by an Accra High Court in October 2023.
