Big Brother Naija Shine Ya Eye ex-housemates, Tega and Boma have spoken about their controversial relationship while in the house.
The both blamed their perceived excesses to the desire to give viewers interesting contents and that they did not expect the backlash.
Boma and Tega set tongues wagging after videos went viral online in which they were seen kissing while in bed.
The married mother-of-one also kissed Boma in front of the housemates and at the executive lounge where he spanked her, leading to rage from the fans.
Speaking during her interview with Beat 99.9 fm on Tuesday, Tega said she never new they had gone to far, while apologizing to Nigerians and her husband.
Speaking about her actions, she said, “We were on the show and we had some talks. And of course, we were enjoying the buzz from the housemates. So we kept on doing it.
“We went on at it but coming out of the show, we realised that we pushed the button too far and it exploded, of course.
“Definitely, I’m going to own up to everything and then tender a sincere apology to Nigerians and of course, my husband.”
Also speaking on the amorous moments with fellow contestant, Tega while in the house, Boma Akpore disclosed that they both noticed the house was boring, so they decided to light it up with their romantic moments, but unfortunately, it did not go down well with the audience.
Speaking with the show host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Boma noted that he never planned to snatch Tega away from her husband nor did he have negative intentions as regards her marriage.
“Tega was the boys’ favourite. She will make daring jokes, we felt she was better than most girls because we felt girls were lying that they were single.
“I and Tega saw that the house was boring, people were always sleeping, so we decided to give the viewers a show. We felt we could be a standard performer.
“I did not feel I should step back because she was married but now I see. It is late, I am human but my intention was not to take a married woman away from her husband.” Boma said
In an interview on Monday, Tega’s husband, Ajeboh Krislawrence, stated that if his wife apologises, he will forgive her.
“If she comes back and apologises, I will give her a second chance; but if she comes and says what she did was okay, I will let her go and I will move on,” her husband had said.
However in the recent interview, Tega said, “I’ve talked to my husband and we are good. ”
