Reality TV star and BBNaija alumni, Bella Okagbue, has stirred conversation online following her candid remarks about privacy in romantic relationships. In a recent video shared online, Bella advised couples to refrain from checking each other’s phones, describing it as a breach of trust and personal boundaries.
“It is not good to check your partner’s phone,” Bella stated plainly. “First of all, you are breaching their privacy. Secondly, there’s a high chance that you are going to see what you were not supposed to see. I feel like some people need their privacy, especially when they are having certain conversations with their family members.”
The former Big Brother Naija housemate, who has been in a steady relationship with fellow BBNaija star Sheggz since their appearance on the show in 2022, emphasized that not all private conversations are suspicious or related to infidelity. “It doesn’t have to be cheating,” she added. “I don’t want anybody seeing my chats with my mum or my family members.”
Her statement has sparked widespread debate online, with fans and followers weighing in on the boundaries of transparency and personal privacy in modern relationships. While some agree with Bella's perspective, applauding her maturity and emotional intelligence, others argue that trust must come with full openness including unrestricted access to digital spaces.
Bella and Sheggz, affectionately known as #Shella by fans, have remained one of BBNaija's most talked-about couples, consistently drawing attention with their love journey, public appearances, and loyal fanbase.
As discussions continue across social media, Bella’s comment serves as a bold reminder that even in love, boundaries and respect for privacy are key pillars of healthy, lasting relationships.
