The BBNaija Level Up couple that had fans rooting for them has officially called it quits, and Sheggz is setting the record straight
Big Brother Naija star Sheggz has finally broken his silence, confirming what many fans had begun to suspect — his beloved relationship with fellow reality TV star Bella Okagbue is officially over, and has been since January 2026.
In a lengthy and heartfelt statement, the Level Up housemate made it crystal clear that he was not going to allow false narratives to define how their love story ended. “For clarity, I did not cheat on Bella and I have been single since January 2026,” he stated firmly, shutting down any rumours of infidelity that may have been making the rounds on social media.
From BBNaija Sweethearts to Going Separate Ways
If you were glued to your screen during the BBNaija Level Up season, you’ll remember how “Shella” — as fans lovingly called the pair — became one of the most talked-about couples to come out of the Biggie house. Nigerians took them into their hearts, rooting for their love story to survive beyond the house walls. For a while, it seemed like it would.
But as we say in Nigeria, wetin God cannot do does not exist — and sometimes, that includes keeping two people together when their paths are meant to diverge.
Sheggz Chose Silence — Until Now
According to his statement, Sheggz had deliberately kept quiet about the split, choosing not to air their business on the internet the way some celebrities do. But when the whispers and allegations became too loud to ignore, he felt compelled to speak his truth.
This is a move many Nigerians will understand. In a social media age where everybody wants the gist hot and fresh, choosing silence is often mistaken for guilt. Sheggz clearly decided he had had enough of the speculation.
The Reactions Have Been Swift
As expected, the internet did not take this news lightly. Fan pages dedicated to Shella have been flooded with heartbreak emojis, while others are already asking the big question — “So who else saw this coming?”
Some fans are standing firmly by Sheggz, applauding him for clarifying the cheating allegations, while Bella’s supporters are in their own corner, waiting to hear her side of the story.
Whether you are team Sheggz, team Bella, or simply a lover of good reality TV drama, one thing is certain — this chapter of the Shella story has closed. We wish both of them nothing but the best as they navigate life, love, and everything in between.
