Former Big Brother Naija housemates, Pere Egbi and Mercy Eke, have set tongues wagging after they officially confirmed their romantic relationship.
The duo confirmed their relationship status during a recent interview on HotFM, categorically asserting that their connection goes beyond a mere situationship.
In the course of the conversation, Pere highlighted the seriousness of their relationship, dispelling any notions of it being a casual fling.
Mercy expressed admiration for Pere’s qualities, pondering why they hadn’t formed a closer bond right from their early days on the reality show.
However, the authenticity of their love has become a subject of speculation among some netizens. While some perceive it as a strategic move for showbiz and entertainment purposes, others genuinely believe in the sincerity of their affection.
An Instagram user identified as Xpensive_fatima commented on Pere’s attractiveness, raising questions about Mercy’s supposed billionaire boyfriend.
Another user, Bishy.Opeyemi dismissed it as a mere spectacle for showbiz and entertainment, while ladyque_1 suggested that supporters should start contributing funds for the couple.
