I wasn’t ready for marriage when Kellyrae proposed, says Kassia
Kassia Sule, the former Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) housemate, has revealed that she was not ready for marriage when Kellyrae proposed.
In October 2024, Kellyrae became the first married man to win the BBNaija show. The reality star took home the grand prize of N100 million.
The lovebirds got married in February 2024 after dating for 10 years.
In an interview on WithChude, Kassia said she had been eager to marry Kellyrae for a long time, but her mindset shifted in 2023.
The reality star said she realised that marriage no longer felt like fulfillment so she focused on self-improvement.
Kassia said despite her uncertainty, she accepted Kellyrae’s proposal.
“I have been waiting forever to get married to him, but he delayed, so it happened in 2024. I wasn’t surprised when he proposed but at the time he did, I wasn’t ready for marriage,” she said.
“First, I was ready, but by the time he did, I was not. Three years before he proposed, I was ready for marriage; I do not know if it was because of the pressure I was getting from my family, but in 2023, everything changed.
“At that time, I knew it was not about marriage; it was not a fulfillment. My perspective changed so I thought to be a better person before getting into marriage.
“So, when he proposed, I accepted, but in my mind, I was not sure I was ready. I was happy but confused. I told my best friend, and she encouraged me. We got married, and it has been amazing since then.”

Chloe Bailey speaks on relationship with Burna Boy
Chloe Bailey, the American singer, has opened up about her relationship with Burna Boy, the Afrofusion star.
During the festive period last year, Bailey, 26, and Burna Boy were spotted together at Obi’s House, a nightlife club in Lagos.
Their outing sparked rumours that the two singers were dating.
But in a recent interview on the Breakfast Club podcast, the host asked Bailey if she was bringing a date to the 2025 NAACP Awards.
The singer replied that she would be attending with her godmother and manager.
When asked about Burna Boy, Bailey chose not to confirm or deny the dating rumours. She, however, said she is focused on her positive experiences in Nigeria.
“Nigeria was so beautiful. I had the best time. I ate some good food. I ate pepper soup. I ate some spicy chicken. It was really good. At the nightlife? It was so good. There were so many lights,” she said.
“I am a grown woman. I had a great time in Nigeria. He is a grown man just like I am a grown woman”.
“It is my life. It is what I signed up for. I can only expect it. It is just about how I handle it and myself. I do not think it should ever be pissing towards people asking me.”

Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez finalise divorce
Hollywood stars Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck will officially be divorced by February 20, nearly two years after they tied the knot in July 2022.
Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024. She listed April 26, as their date of separation and cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split.
According to TMZ, Lopez, 55, and Affleck, 52, will maintain their separate possessions, including their private businesses and project earnings and neither will pay spousal support to the other.
As part of the agreement, Ben will keep his stake in Artists Equity, the production company he co-founded with colleague Matt Damon in 2022. He established the company four months before his marriage to Lopez.
Artists Equity has produced several notable movies, including ‘Air’, ‘Unstoppable’, ‘The Instigators’, ‘Small Things Like These’, and ‘The Accountant 2’.
On the other hand, Lopez will retain her project income from films like ‘Atlas’, ‘This Is Me… Now’, ‘The Mother’, ‘Shotgun Wedding’, and ‘Marry Me’.
The settlement also stipulates that Lopez will drop Affleck as her last name and revert to Jennifer Lynn Lopez. Additionally, the pair agreed to sell the $61 million house they bought together, although details of the sale remain private.
In October last year, Lopez revealed that the split almost “took me out for good” but she did not regret her decision.
