Reality TV star, Bambam has revealed that she purposely dismissed the rumoured domestic violence in her marriage with Teddy A.
In an interview with Punch, Bambam said she debunked the domestic violence reports because of reputational damage.
According to her, Teddy A didn’t see the domestic violence rumour as big deal, but their reputations are important because of their ambassadorial deals.
BamBam however maintained that she wouldn’t have gotten married to Teddy A if she had noticed any violent trait.
Her words; “We are very deliberate as a couple. We know how to separate our personal lives from our social lives. That’s why I still have my sanity. There is no pressure on us. Me and Teddy don’t need to get validation from anyone. We do whatever we want and live on our own terms.
“For the last time, I debunk reports of domestic violence because it amounts to defamation of character. It’s wrong to joke with things like that. Our reputations are important because of the work we do as brand influencers. If my husband is tagged a woman beater, it would affect our work. To him, it wasn’t a big deal but I felt that was too much. I can’t be quiet about something like that. I’m a calm and quiet person but I would never stay with a violent man. If I had noticed any violent traits in my husband, I wouldn’t have married him. Whoever is peddling that news and the people that believe it must think very low of us as a couple.”
Bam Bam and Teddy A became dated while they were housemates in the third season of BBNaija.
Following their stint in the house, they both tied the knot, which didn’t come as a surprise to their fans.
Their marriage has however been plagued with repeated rumoured domestic violence.
