Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality star and self-acclaimed exotic dancer, Chinenyenwa Desire Okoebor, popularly known as Chichi has finally addressed allegations that she was married with children before coming on the show.
During the 7th edition of the reality show in 2022, a picture of Chichi and a man alleged to be her husband went viral on social media.
Apart from this, her BBNaija colleague and second female winner of the show, Phyna on Thursday, June 22, during the Big Brother Naija Season 7 reunion show, Day 4, accused her of abandoning her husband and kids in Benin, the Edo State capital during a heated exchange.

Phyna went on to claim Chichi is far older than she claimed, arguing that she is one of the oldest housemates in the 2022 edition of the reality show.
Speaking during the reunion show Phyna said: “Excuse me! The way you have silicon on your ny*sh and your breasts, you’ve it on your brain. So, shut up. Chichi stripper. Chichi silicon brain. Chichi, mother of two; abandoned them, one died. Chichi left her husband in Benin…”
But addressing the rumours on Friday, June 30, during the reunion show, Chichi denied the allegations and explained that the man in the viral picture is her uncle and not her husband.
She said, “I have heard that I am married with kids. That’s my Father’s last sibling. How am I married to my uncle?”
Prior to this, she had joked on the 4th Day of the reunion show that the kids Phyna alleged she abandoned are the imaginary children she hopes to have in the future.
