Former BBNaija housemate, Bally has opened up on life after the reality TV show, saying most housemates fall into depression.
Feeding questions during a show on Ndani TV, revealed that of all the housemates that have so far been part of the show, 60% have battled depression.
He said, “One thing I’m going to say is that it is not easy, that’s number one. That’s why I keep telling people before you say you want to go into Big Brother, the pressure in this thing is not for everybody.
“I’m going to tell you that at of everybody that has gone into Big Brother, at least on an average, I might be wrong but maybe at least 60% have gone into depression. They might not be still in depression but they’ve gone through it one time like that when it was crazy. And that’s the thing, there is so much pressure.”
When asked to expatiate about the mental health situation reality TV stars go through, Bally noted that in most cases, it starts when the auditions for another season is announced.
