Kellyrae, the winner of Big Brother Naija Season 9, has addressed the controversy surrounding his wife Kassia's family's displeasure with their management's decision to support him over her during the recently concluded reality show. The couple, popularly known as DoubleKay, shared the same management team at the beginning of the competition. However, when Biggie separated the housemates to compete individually, their management chose to back Kellyrae over Kassia.

In a post-eviction interview, Kassia acknowledged that the management's decision was the best course of action, though she revealed that her family was not pleased with the choice to prioritize her husband's progress on the show. During a recent interview with Naija FM in Lagos, Kellyrae responded to the criticism from his in-laws.

When asked by the host about Kassia's family's reaction, Kellyrae said, "Yeah, they are not happy. But they should understand that she is now married."

Kellyrae defended the decision, emphasizing that as a married couple, they must look out for each other's best interests. He urged Kassia's family to respect the dynamics of their relationship.

The couple, who dated for ten years before tying the knot just eight months ago, have continued to make headlines following their journey on BBNaija. Fans are closely watching to see how this situation will affect their relationship and the family's response.
