We don’t know what it is, but something about Big Brother’s house brings out the real lovers in his children. Every year, he opens his doors to them, and they take his hospitality for granted, forget his prize money, and start playing love in his abode. 

We would accuse them (some more) of having misplaced priorities, but their connections and relations were always so entertaining, and sometimes, they had us screaming, “God When?”. 

Angel and Soma

They got into the house, took one look at each other, and decided they had found their missing rib. Granted, their village people called on them every Wednesday and Saturday, trying to put asunder what Big Brother had joined together, but they failed. One year later, Biggie’s favourite child is still going strong with her favourite man.

Erica and Kiddwaya

Before Kiddwaya walked into the BBNaija All Stars house and acted like a fool, he was in the Lockdown house, playing lover boy and attending to star girl Erica’s needs. They were cute and went around the house tormenting everyone with their love.

Uriel and Neo

We know their ship never got to leave the shore. As a matter of fact, we don’t even think they ever got on board this ship, but their chemistry was insane, and we are mourning what could’ve been.

Mercy and Ike

They gave us Amerigbo gangsta love when all we had in Biggie’s house was commotion and fights. Did they add to these fights? Yes, but at least they did it together, as a team in love.

BamBam and Teddy A

While Cee-C, Tobi, and Biggie’s other children were causing chaos and scattering his house, BamBam and Teddy A were falling madly in love. We knew their love was real when Teddy A wept his eyes out after BamBam’s eviction, left the house the very next day, and ended up getting married and having children together.

Nini and Saga

Saga spent all his days and nights in Big Brother’s house chasing Nini, showing and professing his undying love for her. She never returned his feelings, but they became close friends and spent their time in the house taking care of each other.

Angel and Big Brother

We’ve always known Big Brother has favourites. Every season, someone walks into the house, and it’s clear that Biggie has brought in his favourite child, but Angel is the fairest of all of his children, past, present, and future. From their banter to the gentle way he speaks to her and the harsh way he deals with her opps, the Angel and Biggie ship is the ship of all Big Brother ships.

Eric and indomie

Eric walked into the house with one mission and one mission only: to finish Big Brother’s food, specifically the indomie. He was in Biggie’s house for one week, but during that week, he made sure a bowl of indomie went with him everywhere he went. We’re surprised his love interest, Lilo, didn’t get jealous and tell him to put the bowl down and focus on her because she should have.

Yvonne and Juicy Jay

We don’t think anyone has ever played the Big Brother game like it was Love Island the way these two did. From Juicy Jay’s Ipeleng, Jenni O, Yvonne square, to the cookie exchange love confession, to their alcohol-induced fight. Yvonne and Juicy Jay walked into Biggie’s house, saw each other, and forgot their was money to be won.
