    Reality TV star, Tega Dominic, has again reiterated that she is a single mom  and not married.

    “For a fact, I didn’t go into the show as married. I went in as separated. In all my interviews, I clearly stated it. I went in as separated,” Tega said.

    However, Tega has cleared the air on her marital status, saying she lied about being married.

    Tega added, “During our conversations and introductions, I just said well I’m married and I have a kid. That was supposed to be a strategy.

    “Getting deep into the show, I then discovered that this was doing something great in a bad way to me.”

    Speaking of her affair with Boma, Tega said, “To me, everything that was going on between me and Boma was all a cruise.”

    During the reunion show, Boma also revealed that Tega told him her marriage had ended, so to him, he was dealing with a single woman.

    “I was in UNILAG for only two weeks. I struggled so much for those two weeks because when I got into UNILAG was my first sxxual assault experience.

    “After that experience happened, I can remember just moving through it and pretending like it never happened.

    “It affected my school life so much. I always blamed it on not knowing what to do in UNILAG when actually, I’ve always been fully aware of what I wanted to do,” she said.

    Angel revealed nobody knew that she had dropped out of school until much later, and that when she told her mum about it, she didn’t disclose the true reason why she left school.

    The BBNaija star and writer, who disclosed that she had wanted to be a gynecologist, said she had to give up the dream and began developing her English speaking and writing skills.

    “I knew what I wanted to do but I didn’t just do that because I had experienced something so traumatic and I didn’t speak to anybody about it, especially not my granny because I had so much shame.

    “Nobody knew I was out of school until my mum had asked and I was like, ‘let me finally be out with it’.

    “When I told her that and she asked me why, I obviously did not tell her what happened. I just told her I didn’t think I was doing the right course.

    “Then she enrolled me in a foundational programme in the UK, which I dropped out from too,” Angel said.

    She explained that she couldn’t stay in school because at that point, she didn’t know what she wanted to do with her life but going for BBNaija gave her a lot of clarity.
