BBNaija’s No Loose Guard winner, Kellyrae, has opened up about his personal struggles and his relationship with his wife, Kassia, during an emotional interview on Chude Jideonwo’s show.
The 33-year-old musician revealed the tough times he faced before joining the BBNaija house, including financial hardships that pushed him into a period of deep depression. Kellyrae admitted that his desperation to make more money led him to betting, which caused him to lose everything he had.
I had some money, but because I wanted more, the money was not enough. I was gambling with it and then lost all the money. I was depressed. Every night I’d be awake thinking.Then she was the one who came to my rescue.
He also spoke candidly about a difficult moment when he contemplated ending his relationship with Kassia, believing that he wasn’t providing for her the way he should.
I called her one day and said, ‘Let’s just break up, I feel I don’t have what it takes to really take care of you. I felt guilty most times that there were things I was supposed to be doing.
In the interview, Kellyrae also discussed his time in the BBNaija house, emphasizing how he stayed true to himself throughout the competition. The only thing he pretended about, he revealed, was keeping his marriage to Kassia a secret.
“Even if you lay on your bed for the rest of your life, trouble will still come. I think I prefer the trouble that comes with N60 million .The only thing I had to fake was that I was in the house with my wife, every other thing, I was just being myself.”
Kellyrae’s candidness about his journey, his struggles, and his deep connection with Kassia has resonated with fans, offering an inspiring glimpse into his personal life.
