BBNaija: Maria Apologizes To Angel’s Father For Slut-Shaming Daughter

Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Maria Chike Benjamin has apologized to Angel’s father, over the comments she made about his daughter when she was on the show.

In a video making rounds online, Maria was seen apologizing to Angel’s father. Recall that Maria called Angel a prostitute and body-shamed her a number of times prompting Angel’s dad to react.

Maria walked up to Angel’s father to apologize during the final party while giving some reasons for her actions. According to her, it was based on miscommunication.

“I’m very sorry for all the things I said about your daughter. It was based on miscommunication. I do love your daughter, no disrespect of any kind to her,” she said.

After the main event, Angel’s father went live on Instagram where he conversed with the latter. After they both exchanged pleasantries, Maria stated that her comment on the show about Angel was a miscommunication.

Maria stated that on seeing Angel’s dad, she feels like she has to talk to him, adding that she was sorry about her comments and she likes Angel.

Angel’s dad told her that it was alright and before leaving, she told him, “You’re very handsome. Oh my God.”

In the third week of the show, Maria had accused Angel of breaking the girl code by going after Michael, whom Jackie B was attracted to. In response, Big Brother asked Maria about her opinion as regards the men not respecting their relationship with their partners and rejecting Angel’s advances.

However, Maria stated that “boys will be boys”, a statement which Angel’s father reacted to, via his daughter’sInstagram page.

Shortly after that, Maria had described Angel as a prostitute during a discussion with Nini and Peace in the Executive Lounge.

Maria had said that Michael would not date Angel because he sees her as a prostitute. That assertion led to a lot of criticism for Maria at the time but she claimed that she may have been under the influence of alcohol.
