Former Big Brother Naija housemate Queen Mercy Atang’s marriage to King David appears to be on shaky ground. The reality TV star, who tied the knot earlier this year, has taken steps on social media that suggest marital discord, leaving fans and followers speculating about the couple’s future.
Observant fans noticed a series of changes on Queen’s Instagram profile that raised red flags. The reality star has unfollowed her husband and removed all photos featuring him from her account. Adding fuel to the fire, Queen has also deleted King David’s name from her Instagram bio.
These actions, typically seen as digital signs of relationship trouble, have sent shockwaves through Queen’s fanbase. The couple’s whirlwind romance and recent nuptials had been a source of joy for many supporters, making the current situation all the more shocking.
As news of the possible marital rift spread, social media erupted with a mix of reactions. Many fans expressed disbelief and hope that the situation is merely a misunderstanding or publicity stunt.
One supporter, Gabriella Fassi, commented, “I reject it on her behalf,” echoing the sentiments of many who are rooting for the couple’s success. Another fan, Precious Ibini, wrote, “Nothing must happen to this marriage,” highlighting the emotional investment of Queen’s followers in her relationship.
However, not all reactions were supportive. Some fans, like Edu Funkey, expressed skepticism about the relationship from the start: “Both of them were never made to be together. A normal guy wouldn’t have accepted her back. Both of them played each other to deceive the public.”
Queen and King David’s relationship has been in the public eye since their wedding introduction in Akwa Ibom State in March. The event, attended by fellow Big Brother Naija alum Nini Singh, marked the beginning of their official journey together.
Shortly after the introduction, the couple legally married at the Federal Marriage Registry in Lagos, surrounded by friends and family. They followed this with a wedding party that drew attention from both fans and fellow celebrities.
The rapid progression of their relationship from introduction to marriage captured the public’s imagination, making the current rumors of trouble all the more startling.
As speculation continues to swirl, neither Queen nor King David has made an official statement regarding the status of their relationship. Some optimistic fans, like Helen Cute, suggest that the couple might simply be opting for more privacy: “What if they want to be private on SM [social media]?”
Whether this is a case of a couple choosing to step back from the public eye or a sign of deeper issues remains to be seen. As the story develops, fans and observers alike will be watching closely for any official word from the couple.
