In a recent episode of Big Brother Naija, housemate Ruthee sparked outrage after a private conversation between her and Chinwe revealed hurtful comments directed at fellow contestant Nelly.
Ruthee, in the conversation, compared her appearance to Nelly’s, claiming she looked “sexier” despite her own potbelly.
She further mocked Nelly’s age, suggesting that the 33-year-old looked closer to 40 and insinuating that Nelly was lying about her age.
This tension followed the housemates’ return to the show, where Nelly had an earlier face-off with Chinwe. However, Ruthee’s disparaging remarks about Nelly’s body and age quickly overshadowed that moment.
Clips of Ruthee’s comments circulated online, drawing backlash from fans and viewers. Many took to social media to express their disappointment in Ruthee’s behavior, calling out her harsh words.
See some fan reactions below:
– @OluwatomiJ39240: “When Wanni called Ruthee a troll in real life, she wasn’t lying.”
– @Rukkie123: “A woman who has a girl child should refrain from certain words. Ruthee is a bitter woman, I hope she heals.”
– @prisfayorsey: “Because she’s on Nelly now, she’s vile, but when she was on Wanni, content 😂. Double standards.”
– @Gisela09012350: “Sorry to say this to their fans, but they are overdoing the script, and it’s getting boring now 🙄.”
– @bigbaby_oma: “Biggie please can you take them out and leave just Dami.”
– @STORMBREATHED: “Can you imagine getting another chance at something, and you come back worse than you were the first time?”
As the backlash grows, fans are calling on Big Brother to step in and address the body-shaming, urging the show to set boundaries on such targeted remarks. Many viewers are now questioning Ruthee’s actions and whether they were merely part of a game strategy or something more personal.
Whether Big Brother intervenes remains to be seen, but the incident has already left a bitter taste in the mouths of many fans.
