A report by Leadership News indicates that former Big Brother Nigeria housemates Teddy A and BamBam have sparked intense breakup rumors after fans noticed they had unfollowed each other on Instagram. The couple, who married after meeting on the show’s third season, have long been considered one of the most stable “shippings” in the franchise.
The social media activity was compounded by a viral video of a man claiming to know the “real reason” for the crisis, alleging domestic friction and lifestyle differences. However, the couple recently appeared in a pre-recorded interview where they recounted past instances of being “wrongly accused” of marital issues, adding a layer of confusion to the current reports.
While neither has released an official statement regarding the unfollowing, Nigerian Twitter (X) has been flooded with “investigative” posts analyzing their recent solo public appearances. Some fans remain hopeful that it’s a PR stunt for an upcoming joint project or reality show.
* Legit NG quoted a viral TikTok source: “No husband takes that; alleged reason for couple’s rumoured marital crisis emerges.”
* Naija News cited filmmaker Onyeka Nwelue: “Nothing has happened to Teddy A and BamBam’s marriage.”
Echotitbits take:
The “unfollow” is the modern-day divorce filing in the world of celebrity gossip. However, given their history of debunking rumors, this could be a calculated move to drum up engagement for a new brand deal. Until there’s a formal “we have decided to part ways” post, treat this with high skepticism—celebrity marriages are often more resilient than their social media handles suggest.
