Big Brother Naija star Queen Mercy Atang has confirmed the end of her marriage. She was wedded to David Oyekanmi. This news follows months of public speculation about their relationship.
The confirmation came recently. A follower admired Queen’s beauty and asked about her marital status. Queen responded clearly. She stated she is single and not available, removing all doubts.
The fan wrote: “Queen, hope you’re still married because Asa, you’re too beautiful to be single.”
Her response was direct: “Single and unavailable.”
Timeline of Public Scrutiny
The reality star’s marriage has been under public watch since August. Both Queen and David stopped following each other on Instagram. Around the same period, David appeared in several photos without his wedding ring. This raised many questions among fans.
Queen also deleted his pictures from her page. She removed his name from her bio. These actions further fuelled separation talks.
In October last year, Queen’s seven-month marriage faced another challenge. She unfollowed her husband once more. The situation seemed uncertain then.
However, by December, clarity emerged. Queen travelled to the UK to spend Christmas with David. They shared moments online. These posts suggested they were attempting to reconcile. Queen even mentioned returning to her duties as a wife. David welcomed her warmly. He assured her of his care.
Marriage Details
The couple held their introduction ceremony in Akwa Ibom. Friends and colleagues attended. They then legally sealed their marriage. This took place at the Federal Marriage Registry in Lagos. Their wedding ceremony followed in March, shortly after the introduction.
