Reality TV star and former Big Brother Naija housemate, Rebecca Nengi Hampson, has taken to social media to address rumors about her alleged pregnancy. A popular blog had claimed that Nengi was expecting a child with a 65-year-old married Governor, further fueling a rumor that she was set to become his fifth wife. However, the reality star has debunked these claims, clarifying that she is pregnant and that the rumors linking her to the politician are false.
In a statement posted on her social media page, Nengi expressed her frustration over the false narratives flying in the air about her life. She condemned the rapid spread of misinformation on social media and emphasized that she only decided to address the matter because it involved individuals she holds in high regard.
She wrote: “As much as I believe social media lies aren’t worth my time, I’ve come to accept that we live in a world where people are quick to spread lies without limits. So let me be clear, I’m not pregnant for any Governor.”
Further stressing her point, she added, “I’ve chosen to speak coz this isn’t just an attack on me, it involves people I hold in the highest regard, and I won’t allow a beautiful, personal part of my life to be turned into something ugly. While I continue to mind my own business and enjoy my pregnancy in PEACE, I wish y’all love and a happy Valentine’s weekend.”
Since her rise to fame in the 2020 edition of Big Brother Naija: Lockdown, Nengi has remained one of the most talked-about reality stars in Nigeria. With her stunning looks, entrepreneurial drive, and knack for keeping fans engaged, she has built a brand that extends beyond reality TV. From launching her shoe line to securing high-profile endorsements, Nengi has positioned herself as a successful influencer and businesswoman.
However, her name has also been entangled in various controversies. Over the years, she has been linked to several prominent men, with speculations often running wild about her relationships and lifestyle. Nengi has always maintained that her success comes from her hard work, endorsement deals, and business ventures. This latest pregnancy scandal is just another chapter in the long list of unverified claims that have made the rounds about her personal life. In another news, iNaijanow shared a post about how Gospel singer Paul Nwokocha’s marriage ended in divorce reasons of infidelity.
Amid the online frenzy, Afrobeats singer Spyro, known for his hit song Who’s Your Guy?, has expressed his support for the BBNaija queen. The singer, who has publicly admired Nengi in the past, took to Instagram to defend her against trolls and critics.
“Honestly, you all should please leave her alone and face your lives o. That baby is of the Lord and a big gift btw. Beautiful in and out always #Nengi,” Spyro wrote.
Now that she’s confirmed her pregnancy but kept the father’s identity secret, the internet is on high alert for more clues. Will she share more details? Will the rumors continue? Will social media ever mind its business? We’ll have to wait and see.
