The winner of the recently concluded Big Brother Naija (No Lose Guard) Season 9, Kingsley Sule, aka Kellyrae, has revealed that he is till getting used to his win and newly found fame.
Kellyrae told Saturday Punch, that the feeling of being a BBNaija is surreal.
“Even till now, my brain is still processing the realisation that I won the show. It’s almost like I don’t know what I’m doing here, being interviewed. I am just answering questions. Last night (Sunday), I could not sleep; I just kept rolling in bed. You can imagine how it feels like for someone that came from nothing to become something”, he told the paper.
On his game plan, Kellyrae who paired up with his wife Kassia for the show said he won the money by just being himself.
He said: “That (Hiding marital status) was not the strategy to get me to the final. It was actually the strategy for me and my wife to connect with other contestants. There were times that Onyeka (another housemate) and I danced during the party, and I also ‘vibed’ with some other girls too? If I had announced my status as a married man, they might not have got close to me. We all saw how the girls were giving Tjay (another contestant) space because he is married.
“Also, the guys wouldn’t have danced with my wife if they had known our marital status. We just wanted to connect with people and make friends. Meanwhile, I always had the intention of telling them later”.
Speaking on how he plans to handle his new status as a celebrity, he said, “Before my wife and I came on the show, we knew what to expect. I had a discussion with my wife, and we predicted that our lives won’t remain the same. And, we got ourselves ready for that outcome. I just got married to my wife in February 2024, but it feels like we’ve been married for long. That’s because we courted for a long time, so we will found our way around”.
