The last time I was in the US was in 2018 - Queen reacts after fan accuses her of prostitution following failed marriage

Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Queen Mercy Atang has reacted to the ongoing rumors on what led to the end of her one-year marriage to her ex-husband, David.

Her reaction comes after a fan described her as a “prostitute” and an “unfit wife.”

In the lenghty post, she stressed that she was tired of keeping quiet while strangers dictated the narrative of her life.

The reality TV star said she was shocked to hear claims that people “in the U.S.” allegedly described her with demeaning names, insisting she had not lived in America long enough for such stories to be true.

She recalled visiting the U.S. only once between 2017 and 2018, long before fame, when she lived briefly with a relative in Houston before travelling for a pageant in Florida. Queen wondered where and how such narratives were formed, especially from people who had never met her or interacted with her family.

She asked: “So where exactly did your ‘USA people’ see me and decide I was a prostitute?” She noted that she expected her family to be upset that she finally responded publicly. Addressing another rumour, Queen dismissed claims that she posted her husband on social media to spite her baby daddy.

She said she never publicly shared anything about her child’s father, and she only posted her marriage because she was genuinely excited, like any newlywed. She added that if her husband had chosen not to share their wedding photos, she would have quietly posted hers without revealing the identity of her baby daddy.
