In the interview, Ifeoma shut down the speculations that her brother is gay and slammed Fancy for fueling such reports with her \u201cLive in your truth\u201d statement and that they never had sex during their five years relationship. <\/p>\n

Online In-laws reacts to Ifeoma\u2019s interview<\/h2>\n

Online in-laws have reacted to the interview by Alex\u2019s sister, Ifeoma defending his sexuality. <\/p>\n

According to many, Alex sexuality would not be a topic for discussion if he had not allegedly forced Fancy to make a public apology. others noted that Ifeoma should have stayed out the drama. <\/p>\n

One Tee lyfstyele wrote: <\/strong>If Alex had known this revenge would backfire he would have taken his L in peace then. This is just too messy.<\/p>\n

One Tash wrote: <\/strong>Why isn\u2019t Alex saying anything though or \u2026<\/p>\n

One lead day skincare wrote:<\/strong> People need to be emotionally intelligent honestly.
Alex should have thought of this before the planned the apology thing.. See how he has dragged his Family into this mess!<\/p>\n

One Kunmi wrote: <\/strong>If only Alex knew this public Apology would backfire on him,he wouldn\u2019t have asked for it.<\/p>\n

One Mickey pride wrote: <\/strong>This matter get as e be.. but that 5 years celibacy was a fancy lie by fancy. I can\u2019t believe that. A closet gay in a relationship will still nack even if na once or twice in a 5 years period,even if its to cover his tracks.Alex\u2019s friends should keep in touch with him cos this type of ish can lead to depression..<\/p>\n

One Tobyloba wrote: <\/strong>If Alex fit send fancy Wetin to post , Alex fit send him sister to do this one \ud83d\ude02 if you are gay you are gay Abeg make una carry this matter move. <\/p>\n

Symply Chioma wrote:<\/strong> Alex made love to his fianc\u00e9 and felt the need to tell you ? Is that even normal Aunty ?? Besides Fancy didn\u2019t lie . She said they didn\u2019t get intimate within their 5 year relationship. She didn\u2019t add January \u2026. the January you talking about , is it not the one of 5 days ago ??<\/p>\n

Queen Vee wrote: I<\/strong>t would have been better if you had kept silent. Because I don\u2019t know how your brother would gladly discuss his sexual dealings with you a sister. It\u2019s too ignorant to say gay don\u2019t run in your family.. There are environmental factors that can cause people to involve in certain sexual activities. Both of you were just shouting like Wike and Amaechi. Not making any sense.<\/p>\n

Endlight wrote: <\/strong>Silence is golden. Make una rest abeg.<\/p>\n

Chiny Godwin wrote:<\/strong> See why you shouldn\u2019t bring relationship matter to social media??? Now even people wey no suppose, de yarn dust for the matter! Nobody knows what the truth is\u2026 Fancy should have just left it at the apology or even left it all completely. We need to understand that we owe NOBODY no explanation!!! Nobody! All this cry does not confirm or deny the truth, stop playing on our emotions please. This matter is between Alex and Fancy\u2026 Fancy too get family members na\u2026 They can also come out and cry and say \u201d fancy don suffer for Alex hand\u201d \u2026 Abeg abeg abeg\u2026 Make all body just mind their business!!!\u00a0<\/p>\n

King wrote:<\/strong> It\u2019s hard to defend Alex . His sister should just keep her mouth closed. How can he have such a beautiful damsel and dpo anyhow. <\/p>\n

Petti things wrote:<\/strong> Where is Alex in this whole mix? Why advocate for someone who is alive and well able to defend himself.<\/p>\n

Alex Ekubo and Fancy Acholonu\u2019s soured relationship<\/h2>\n

Kemi Filani recalls that Alex Ekubo and Fancy Acholonu got engaged May 2021, after 5 years of dating. However, their engagement didn\u2019t last long as Acholonu suddenly called off their already-scheduled wedding in August of the same year.<\/p>\n

On Friday, December 29tb, the model shocked many when she issued a public apology to Ekubo via Instagram, stating that her heart still belongs to him.<\/p>\n

Ekubo reacted to the apology with a comment which read, \u201cI appreciate the apology. May God bless us all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rumours of a possible\u00a0reconciliation started making rounds,\u00a0before Fancy shut it down. In an unexpected turn of events, the US model claimed that Alex had fooled her into making a public apology and then blocked her.<\/p>\n

Acholonu took to Instagram on Monday, January 2nd to declare that she is \u201cfree\u201d and that \u201cthe chain is broken.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
