Evicted BBNaija housemate, Maris, has recclae events of the days she spent there.
She is correcting certain impressions, including thinking she was sexually attracted to Cross.
Besides, she noted, although Pere wanted her badly, she was not out for a deep relationship.
In an interview with ‘The Nation’, Maris said: ou explain this?
“They would really think sometimes like, I mean, because opinions are people’s opinions and I would never budge in to like try and change the narrative because that would seem impossible. When you say strategy if you guys actually watch the show I never in the initial beginning was around Pere ever. Pere was persistent with me. Pere, every single day, would come over to me saying I like you.
“He was like he was always in my breathing space 24/7. So if it was a strategy, I would have been the one going on to Pere. You wouldn’t have caught a clip where I’m like constantly trying to find where Pere I want to be around him. None of that happened. So many times. I told Pere I have a boyfriend outside of the house. I actually went into the show as single. And it was because of Pere that I owned up to say that I had a boyfriend because I needed him to understand that we were only just going to be friends and I enjoyed our friendship. I loved the attention he gave me.
“We have, well I thought we had a genuine friendship because I confided in him a lot of stuff about people in the house or about myself. Or like, you know, I got fond of him because he was always around me so you know after a few weeks has seen someone for long, you do get fond of them. But I would have never been a strategy because I never went on to him, I never came on to Pere for one day for the first week, the second week, we started being close. Well, I started I think probably getting super, super close, like probably towards the early end of second week and third week. But Pere had always, you know, been persistent is like, every time I stay away from Pere, he comes, he finds himself around me again. So it would have never been a struggle for him.”
