Ugandan singer Victor Ruz has publicly broken his silence and issued a deeply emotional apology to his ex-lover, Patricia Nabakooza, after an intimate video of the two kissing leaked in 2024 — a moment that sparked public backlash, private pain, and a wave of online speculation.
Speaking candidly in a televised interview with Sanyuka TV, the “Love Legend” hitmaker recounted the harrowing betrayal that led to the scandal — and why he has carried guilt ever since.
“Patricia, my love, my best friend… I’m very sorry for all that happened. It wasn’t me. It was some of the people who tried to blackmail me,” he confessed, visibly emotional.
???? Leaked Kissing Clip Sparks Controversy
The now-viral video, which surfaced earlier this year, showed Victor and Patricia locked in a romantic moment — something fans weren’t expecting. But what shocked many even more was the mysterious timing and source of the leak, with many assuming it was deliberately shared to stir drama.
Victor Ruz has now confirmed those suspicions — revealing the clip was leaked without his consent by someone he once trusted.
“My phone was cloned,” he revealed. “The person who did this was an associate I had fallen out with. He wanted to blackmail me. He even threatened to leak more content. I had to involve the authorities.”

According to Ruz, the leak wasn’t just a petty revenge act — it was an attempt to ruin both his image and Patricia’s future.
“After that video leaked, many things happened. Patricia had her own plans. It disorganized her and it must have annoyed her deeply,” he said.
He went on to reveal that Patricia chose to distance herself following the incident and asked him for space — something he says he honored despite wanting to explain the situation personally.
“She wasn’t ready to listen,” Ruz said softly. “She asked for space, and I respect women — so I gave her the space she needed, to date. Maybe one day, we will talk about it.”
❤️ “Love Is Forever… If It Was Real”
When asked if he still loved Patricia, the singer’s response was as honest as it was heart-wrenching:
“Love is forever unless you were playing around. If you were serious, your heart doesn’t stop loving them — and you always still care.”
This quote has already begun to trend across social media, with fans flocking to TikTok and X (formerly Twitter) to debate whether this is a sign that the two could reconcile in the future.

Though he’s been focused on his music career, Victor has also been quietly working behind the scenes to clear his name and strengthen digital security to prevent future leaks.

✨ Final Thoughts
Victor Ruz’s apology isn’t just about one video — it’s about pain, lessons, and a love that once was. Whether or not Patricia responds remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: he’s not hiding anymore.
