Evicted Big Brother Naija housemate TJay has opened up about the unwavering support he received from his wife, despite the challenges she faced during her pregnancy.
His wife gave birth to twin boys while he was still on the show, a significant life event that could have easily caused him to reconsider his participation.
In an interview with Sunday Scoop, TJ revealed, “It was difficult for both of us. When I was selected for the show, the pregnancy was already quite advanced. I thought the show would air after the delivery, but things moved faster than expected. However, my wife was incredibly supportive of my dream and told me, ‘There’s no point going backwards now.”
TJ emphasised the emotional toll of being away from his family during such a critical time, admitting that not being present for the birth of his children was one of the hardest parts of the show.
He said, “My wife had a lot of help from friends, family, and even fans who reached out,” he said, praising her strength and commitment.”
He also shared some of the difficulties he faced inside the house, particularly with the issue of theft.
“As the weeks went by, the rate of theft in the house increased. One time, 15 pieces of meat just disappeared. I couldn’t believe it. In this economy, someone really stole 15 pieces of meat. I don’t enjoy being stolen from,” he expressed, hinting at the daily challenges that came with living in the confined space.
