Without a doubt, the popular Big Brother Naija reality show has been a source of huge entertainment for many Nigerians, especially the youths.
It has also served as a place where many love stories have blossomed. Some former Big Brother Naija contestants have gone on to become couples. Some of them got married while some of the relationships crashed.
Saturday Beats takes a look at them
Mercy and Ike
The winner of the fourth season of the reality show (Pepper Dem, 2019), Mercy Eke, and another contestant on the show, Ike Onyeama, became an item while in the house, as they were often in each others company. Their love seemed to be so strong and at the time, Eke stated that their love would continue smoothly even after the show, despite insinuations that she would ditch him upon leaing the house. She had said, I was single before going into the house. But now, you should expect love and friendship (between me and Ike). We will work as partners. Money has nothing to do with the love we share. Money has nothing to do with our relationship. It wont affect us.
The couple even went on to host a reality show together called, Mercy and Ike Show.
However, things took a nosedive and the lovebirds called it quits when things turned sour between them.
However, in a shocking twist during the week, Mercy denied ever dating Ike, adding that she could only speak for herself. When asked if she was in a relationship with Ike on a podcast with Nedu and Pretty Mike, she said, I dont know what you are talking about.
When pressed further by Pretty Mike on Ike claiming she was his girlfriend, Eke insisted, I can speak for myself. I cannot speak for anybody. I still dont know what you are talking about.
Liquorose and Emmanuel
Dancer, Roseline Afije, aka Liquorose, and another contestant, Emmanue Omoh, bonded well while participating in the 2022 edition of the show (Shine ya Eye), but according to them, they only started dating after the show had ended.
The relationship was however short-lived as they both went their separate ways on the account that Emmanuel cheated on her while they were in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. She stated that she walked in on him and another lady in a hotel room. However, Emmanuel vehemently denied having anything to do with the lady he was seen with. According to him, he was only meeting an old friend and he allegedly slept off in the course of their conversation, before Liquorose came in.
Giving her own version of events, Liquorose, The light was off, music was playing and the girl was sitting at the edge of the bed, which was rough. She also covered her face with a mask.
Responding to his former lover, Emmanuel said, Meeting a friend after a long time should not be a problem.
Vee and Neo
Neo Akpofure and Victoria Adeyele began their relationship while still on the 2020 edition of the reality show (Lockdown), and they both continued that way after the show.
When asked in an interview what attracted him to Vee, Neo had said, Her confidence was very sexy to me and it made me fall for her. Then, the way she talks. I can listen to her for the rest of my life.
However, it turns out that they may not be spending the rest of their lives together because the duo has since broken up.
In February 2022, Vee wrote in a social media post, Soft and single. This was after she had unfollowed him on social media and deleted all the pictures they took together from her social media platforms.
