Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko has extended birthday wishes to her colleague Lizzy Gold, sparking reactions from fans who perceive a strained friendship. Destiny shared a photo of Lizzy on Instagram along with a simple birthday message, expressing wishes for a prosperous and grace-filled life
While Destiny’s message seemed amicable, some followers detected an undertone of forced camaraderie. Critics noted that the birthday wish appeared to be in response to the celebration Destiny received from Lizzy on her own birthday in August. Accusations of insincerity and a strained relationship were prevalent in the comments.
Lizzy Gold, in turn, appreciated Destiny for the birthday wishes. However, this exchange triggered speculations about the authenticity of their friendship. Fans pointed out that the public gesture might be an attempt to mend a perceived fallout between the two actresses.
In February 2022, a video surfaced on social media showing Destiny Etiko confronting Lizzy Gold on a movie set. The exchange, which escalated into a brief scuffle, hinted at underlying tensions between the actresses. Destiny labeled Lizzy Gold as ungrateful, while Lizzy, in response, declared she was done making friends and referred to Destiny as a chameleon and a devil.
Despite the past drama, Destiny’s recent birthday wishes to Lizzy Gold suggest an attempt to mend fences or, at the very least, maintain a cordial public image. The online audience remains divided, with some perceiving the gestures as genuine, while others believe they might be superficial attempts to quell rumors of a strained relationship.
