Reality TV star Queen Mercy Atang has confirmed that her marriage to David Oyekanmi has ended.

She addressed the matter in a now-deleted Instagram comment after a fan asked if she was still married, replying simply: “Single and unavailable.”

Her confirmation follows months of speculation that began when the couple unfollowed each other on social media and Queen deleted all their wedding photos and videos.

The pair had a whirlwind romance, getting engaged and completing their traditional, court, and white wedding ceremonies within the same year.

Queen previously revealed that she agreed to marry David after seeking three signs from God.

Although they had known each other since meeting at a beauty pageant years earlier, she said she never initially considered him as a potential husband. She decided to proceed with the relationship after what she described as receiving a final divine confirmation linked to an interview David attended.

The couple’s relationship has now officially ended, according to Queen’s public clarification.

The hypeman, whose real name is Kayode Olatunde, was evicted from the show alongside fellow contestants Mide and Zita.

In a post-eviction interview, Rooboy acknowledged his emotional nature, suggesting it may have ultimately been a disadvantage.

The reality star, however, countered the weakness with what he believes was his greatest strength: a resilient and adaptable mindset.

“I’ll start with my weaknesses. I feel like one of them is I was too emotional. It affects me in some type of way whereby people get to see me finish and that is okay. My strength was that I had the ability to adapt and not take things too seriously or take things too deep,” he said.

So far, 19 housemates have been voted out of the reality show. Imisi, Koyin, Kola, Dede, Kaybobo, Sultana, Mandan, Jason Jae, Isabella and Faith all clinched their spots to the finale.

The remaining 10 contestants will slug it out to take home a staggering N150 million, the highest grand prize in the show’s history since its debut.

The season is expected to wrap up on October 5.

The announcement came after HoH challenger game on Monday, where housemates were required to pick numbers from a lucky dip box to determine who would compete.

Those who drew numbers 1 to 5, Koyin, Imisi, Dede, Ivatar, Doris, and Faith, qualified for the challenge.
Faith eventually won his rivals, sealing his place as the permanent HoH for the week.


He exercised his privilege by selecting Joanna to join him in enjoying the HoH benefits.
However, Biggie added unexpected twists to the new reign.

The news was confirmed in a statement released on Phyna’s social media page. The announcement, issued by Eko Solicitors & Advocates on behalf of the Otabor family, stated that Ruth passed away on Sunday, August 31, 2025, at approximately 6:30 a.m.

“With a heavy heart, the family regrets to announce the passing on to glory of their daughter, sister, and mother,” the statement read.

The family also appealed for privacy during their time of grief, adding that funeral arrangements would be shared in due course.

Ruth Otabor, a graduate of Auchi Polytechnic, had been fighting for her life since the August 13 accident, which occurred near the polytechnic in Auchi, Edo State. The incident reportedly involved a truck associated with the Dangote Group.

Following the crash, Ruth underwent a leg amputation and was receiving treatment at the Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital.

In the weeks leading up to her death, Phyna publicly criticized the Dangote Group, accusing the company of attempting to protect those responsible and highlighting delays in medical response and support.

In response, the Dangote Group issued a statement on August 14, acknowledging the incident and expressing its willingness to cover all medical expenses and provide necessary support. Company representatives and insurance personnel were said to have visited the hospital and the scene of the accident.

Following Ruth’s death, the Dangote Group released another statement on Sunday, expressing condolences and reaffirming its support for the Otabor family.

The Otabor family continues to grieve privately, as public tributes pour in for Ruth across social media and entertainment platforms.

Jason Jae, who had only secured the HoH position on Sunday, had to defend his reign but fell short against Rooboy in a tension-filled challenge that also featured Kuture.

In a twist of loyalty, Rooboy selected Zita as his house guest, a gesture reciprocating her decision to pick him during her own HoH reign last week.

Fans are now eager to see how Rooboy’s leadership will play out, especially given his ongoing tensions with rival housemates such as Imisi.

Before Rooboy’s victory, Jason Jae had named Koyin as his house guest during his brief reign.
