Mercy Eke, a Big Brother Naija reality TV star, has stated that she would never marry if she had a child out of wedlock.
Eke, who revealed that her mother is pressuring her to marry, revealed that she had previously considered having a baby through surrogacy.
In a recent interview with media personality Hero Daniels, the video vixen stated, “I had said that I was going to buy a baby.” It’s not like purchasing a child. Simply find someone, take my eggs, get a sperm donor, hire a surrogate, and have a beautiful baby.
“That is what I was thinking because [of] my mum and her village people. She’s always going from one traditional wedding to another. You know, when you had gone to one thousand traditional weddings, they are now asking, ‘When is your daughter doing her own?’ I said, ‘Mummy, nobody should pressure me o!’
“So, I was like I could just have a baby. Happiness is happiness anywhere you find it. If you wanna give birth, you wanna get it elsewhere. That’s why I love Westerners. They just do what they like. Unlike where people would want you to be a certain way. But right now, I love that people, especially women, are doing what they like, however they deem fit.
“Now, that marriage sef. It’s like I go just carry belle, born, and rest. And, once I have a baby outside of marriage, I am not getting married again. Because the kind of love I will give to that baby, I will not love any man again. All my love, I will give it to my baby. So, I’ve only one relationship left in me.”
