Big Brother Naija 10/10 housemate, Isabella, broke down in tears on Wednesday night as she complained bitterly about her love interest on the show, Kayikunmi.

In a candid chat with fellow housemate, Thelma Lawson, a heartbroken Isabella divulged how her relationship with Kayikunmi stalled after he revealed to her that he is also attracted to someone else in Biggie’s house.

She lamented that they were already close to having sex before Kayikunmi’s heartbreaking revelation.

She said, “We almost like had sex then he [Kayikunmi] was telling me he is attracted to me and somebody else and he wants to keep having conversations with the person. And I told him you can’t be here and there.

“Do you know what’s annoying me? We were so close to having sex. I just haven’t let him finger me, he almost want to finger me. They [the male housemates] came on Sunday, so Day 3, he wants to already finger me.”
