Emenike’s marriage allegedly breaks down years after dumping famous Big Brother Naija star
The news of Emenike’s marriage crisis also comes years after it was reported that he tied the knot with Iheoma Nnadi, while he was in a relationship with famous Big Brother Nigeria star, Mercy Eke.
Mercy, who is currently a housemate in the ongoing Big Brother Naija All-Stars season, was reported to have disclosed in 2019 that she was in a relationship with Emenike when she heard that he got married to Iheoma Nnadi, according to multiple media outlets like Legit and Daily Post.
The report claimed she found out about the marriage plans via social media, and all her attempts to reach the player proved futile after she found out he had blocked her everywhere.
Mercy reportedly made the revelation in the house to fellow housemate Elozonam during the Big Brother Naija ‘Pepper Dem’ season in 2019, which she eventually emerged as the winner.
Mercy allegedly revealed that Emenike loved her but ultimately dumped her because she was a “nobody” at that time.
News reports said the beautiful reality star also added that the situation at that time pushed her determination to become successful and to become a celebrity.
However, to date, Emenike never confirmed he was in a relationship with the Big Brother Naija star.
