Reality TV star Mercy Eke has opened up about her views on motherhood and marriage, revealing that she wouldn’t mind having a child outside of wedlock if life takes her in that direction.
Speaking on a recent podcast, the Big Brother Naija Season 4 winner said she isn’t actively planning for it, but if she were to get pregnant before marriage, she would keep the baby.
Mercy shared that she hopes to have three children, preferably girls, and emphasized that marriage isn’t a prerequisite for starting a family. She also addressed societal stigma toward single mothers, saying it doesn’t affect women who are successful, noting that “the problem is only for women who don’t have things going well.”
She added that she has suitors but hasn’t yet found a man who meets her standards. Mercy stressed that even as a single mother, she wouldn’t rule out marriage in the future.
