Kate ‘Ka3na‘ Jones, the 2020 Big Brother Nigeria (BBNaija) housemate, has clarified her marital status.
During the reality TV show, Ka3na revealed she married a then-64-year-old British man when she was 22.
The TV star also said she had her first baby through IVF because of her husband’s sexual inactiveness.
Speaking on why she married someone older than her, the 29-year-old had said: “In a relationship, I have to be with an older man. I don’t have time to date young guys. I need someone that can advise me”.
In 2022, Ka3na revealed that she had separated from her partner. She said dissolving her marriage and relocating abroad was her toughest decision that year.
But in a statement shared on her X page, Ka3na clarified that she was still married to her British partner before his demise.
She also revealed that she has no intention of remarrying or “changing my marital status by dropping my husband’s name”.
“I believe it is necessary for me to clarify a misconception that has been circulating amongst the public. There are individuals who falsely claim that I was divorced from my late husband prior to his untimely passing,” the statement reads in part.
“This is entirely untrue. I was legally and traditionally married to Mr. Jones, and I am now his widow. I have no intention of remarriage or changing my marital status by dropping my husband’s name.
“I kindly request that everyone respects this statement and refrains from spreading any form of misinformation.”
