BBNaija star, Bella Okagbue, has revealed that her family had reservations about her relationship with her boyfriend, Sheggz, and advised her to end it.

She revealed this recently on an episode of Big Brother Naija ‘level up’ reunion show while discussing her relationship with her boyfriend.

She said that after she was evicted from the show, her family advised her to forget about her relationship with Sheggz and instead, focus on building her brand and career.

According to her, she was initially confused by the counsel and wondered if the London-based footballer didn’t really like her on the show.

However, with time, she realized that the love and bond they share are real, and she decided to follow her heart and move on with him, despite initial objections from her family.

In her words,

“From the family I am from, all those things like kissing I did on the show is not allowed. I am meant to be a proper good girl.

“I was briefed to focus on my brand as soon as I got out of the house. I thought Sheggz didn’t really like me because I had no idea why my family said so.

“At that point, I had no doubt about what we shared; I knew what I felt for him and he knew what he felt for me.

“After the first day of the interview, I decided to leave things as they were. I came out of the house and my family were saying I lost my home training because I was following man and kissing in the house.

“They are my family, they can’t throw me away. After a few days, they came around and everything was fine.

“I was told not to do the relationship based on what was out there. But at the end of the day, it was my decision and we are still in a relationship.”
