Former Big Brother Naija reality star Beauty Tukura has broken her silence about the devastating emotional impact of her disqualification from the popular show three years ago, revealing the experience plunged her into deep darkness and led to suicidal thoughts.
The Nightmare After BBNaija Exit
In a candid interview on Screen Vibes, the celebrity who previously dated fellow housemate Neo described the overwhelming backlash she faced online following her dramatic removal from the reality competition. "My life became very dark after my BBN disqualification three years ago," Beauty confessed during the emotional discussion.
The former housemate detailed how relentless criticism, particularly on Twitter, made her feel trapped and persecuted. She expressed how difficult it was to face judgment from strangers who only knew her through a single mistake, making her feel as though they wanted to crucify her for her actions on the show.
Family Support During Crisis
Beauty revealed that the shame she experienced during that painful period kept her away from her own family, despite knowing how emotional she was becoming. Her parents continued reaching out with messages of love and reassurance, reminding her that she remained valued and cherished at home even during her most difficult moments.
The combination of disqualification and subsequent online bullying had a profound effect on her mental health. She admitted there were moments when the cyberbullying pushed her into such deep despair that she contemplated ending her life. The constant negativity and harsh comments created an environment where hope seemed increasingly difficult to find.
Finding Light in Darkness
Despite the overwhelming criticism, Beauty credited her loyal fans for helping her survive the ordeal. Their messages of support provided crucial hope and helped reshape her focus toward personal growth and healing. She emphasized that this painful chapter ultimately marked the beginning of her emotional recovery journey.
The experience taught her valuable lessons about resilience, patience, and the importance of surrounding herself with genuine love. "It taught me resilience, patience, and the importance of surrounding myself with genuine love," she shared, offering encouragement to others facing similar challenges.
Beauty advised those experiencing online bullying or personal crises to lean on supportive communities and not allow negativity to define their path forward. Her story serves as a powerful reminder about the very real consequences of cyberbullying and the importance of mental health awareness in today's digital age.
