Rapper Desmond "Stunner" Chideme has apparently been publicly dumped by evicted Zimbabwean Big Brother Africa (BBA): The Chase housemate Pokello Nare.
To add to that former BB UK housemate Makosi has apparently implied he is not man enough for her.
Speaking in a telephone interview from the Multichoice offices in Johannesburg, Pokello acknowledged that she was in a relationship with Stunner before entering BBA, but that had since changed because of her affair with Ghanaian housemate Elikem in the house.
She said she had spoken to Stunner and they had agreed to remain friends.
"When I left the house, I spoke to Stunner on the phone about the developments in the house and we have agreed to be friends," she said.
When asked about their relationship, Stunner denied having spoken to Pokello saying he was yet to talk to her to map a way forward.
"I haven't spoken to her and I will tell you my position when I talk to her. Whatever she told you is the position," Stunner said.
Stunner had initially been dropped by Pokello during the Live Eviction show on Sunday when BBA host I.K asked her about her relationship back home and what she would do now that she had Elikem.
"I'm feeling Elikem big time, all day, every day, it is what it is. I will wait for him," Pokello said, not mentioning anything about Stunner.
During her stay in the house, Pokello rarely ever spoke about Stunner. The only time she would talk about him in passing was when she would tell Elikem about the infamous X-rated tape.
Pokello said the tape with Stunner was a private recording which was accidentally leaked to the public.
She said when it leaked, it did affect her, but she decided to be strong about it and not make it affect her. Therefore, in a move to correct her mistake, Pokello decided to enter BBA to tell her own story.
She said she felt she had accomplished her mission judging from the feedback she was now receiving on social networks with people praising her for her disciplined performance in the House.
Pokello tried to hide her feelings for Elikem but she apparently does not get along well with Fatima (Malawi) and Feza, who both fancied Elikem.
Elikem, on the other hand, always expressed his feelings for Pokello and said he would do anything to get her.
Meanwhile, it has been reported that Pokello was not happy with a picture of Makosi and Stunner.
Makosi tweeted the picture and Stunner immediately warned her against such action as it would mess up his relationship with Pokello.
Said Makosi: "Stunner walked up to me and I had no clue who he was. After introducing himself, I said let's do a picture, when I put it down on twitter he begged me to take it down saying it would ruin his relationship as he was not allowed to be seen with me by his girlfriend," she added:
"Then some concerned friends told me that Pokello and her sisters were hunting my butt down and I should watch my back."
Stunner acknowledged engaging Makosi over the picture issue but she said it was an independent decision that didn't involve his girlfriend Pokello's push. "Yes I know the incident but Pokello is not in this thing, it was my independent decision.
"In fact, I never really had a go at Makosi. I only asked her why she had published that picture within 24 hours after it was taken. Anenge anodawo zvinhu iye Makosi uyu," said Stunner.
The drama fueled speculation but Makosi laughed them off.
"Well Stunner is not my type. I don't do boys, I like Alpha males," she said.
As for Pokello, she said: "Truly I have nothing against her (Pokello), I don't know her, and so I have no bad feelings towards her.
"She obviously knows me as I'm the first ever Zimbabwean to do Big Brother, the Pokello's and all are following my footsteps," she added.
