Big Brother Naija Season 10 winner, Imisi, has revealed that she ended her relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Hakeem, just weeks before attending the show’s audition.
Speaking during a post-show interview with the host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Imisi described the breakup as “hectic,” though she chose not to disclose the reason behind their separation.
According to her, the relationship had a strong influence on her lifestyle and fashion choices at the time.
“The Imisi you saw on social media was not really me. My dressing and style were influenced by my ex, Hakeem, because that’s what he liked. He liked when I wore makeup and frontals, so I did that to please him because he was my safe place. He liked girls who looked girly, and he was the only person I had at the time,” she said.
The reality star further disclosed that the breakup happened shortly before her audition for the show.
“But we broke up on April 4, before I went for the audition in May. It was really a hectic breakup, and I didn’t have the time to heal before the show,” she added.
