Victoria Talks About Her Past with Shaun on Big Brother Naija
Victoria, a finalist from Big Brother Naija Season 9, recently opened up about her relationship with her fellow housemate, Shaun Okojie.
Their journey began as a pair known as “Shatoria” before Biggie decided to separate the two.
This dynamic shift raised eyebrows, especially after Shaun developed a romantic connection with another housemate, Wanni, just weeks into the competition.
This sparked rumors about a pre-existing relationship between Shaun and Victoria before they entered the house.
During an interactive session on social media platform X, Shaun addressed these rumors, emphasizing that he and Victoria were never romantically involved before the show, which led to speculation about heartbreak and misunderstandings.
In a candid interview with popular host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Victoria shared insights into her history with Shaun.
She revealed that their relationship had encountered turbulence due to a series of trivial disputes they engaged in during the lockdown period prior to the show.
These “silly fights” took a toll on their connection and made things complicated when they reunited in the house.
Victoria elaborated on the emotional challenges she faced, especially as she watched Shaun form a close bond with Wanni.
She recounted how Wanni approached her to inquire about her relationship with Shaun before they started dating, indicating that there was some concern about the dynamics between the three of them.
“I will be very honest,” Victoria stated. “Shaun and I had our share of misunderstandings during the lockdown. We were often at odds over trivial issues.
When we entered the house, he found someone to confide in, while I had to navigate a whirlwind of emotions alone.”
She expressed that her high standards made it difficult for her to form connections in the house.
“When I got there, I really didn’t see anyone that caught my interest,” she admitted.
“Wanni even asked me if Shaun and I had something going on, and I assured her there was nothing between us.”
Through this interview, Victoria not only provided clarity about her relationship with Shaun but also gave fans a glimpse into the emotional complexities that reality TV can bring, particularly when past relationships and new connections collide in such an intense environment.
