Popular blogger and multi-millionaire, Miss Linda Ikeji, has opened up about having sex and her pregnancy outside wedlock.
In a post on her blog, Linda Ikeji happily and joyfully broke the news of the pregnancy to the world.
The news, however, was received with mixed reactions by her fans and Nigerians. Some social media users have questioned this position based on her stand on celibacy, which she passionately advised young girls to practise.
But in her reaction to the criticism, Linda Ikeji posted on Twitter on Monday: “I preached celibacy to young girls because I feel that’s the right way to live until you meet someone very special that you love and who loves you and wants to be in a committed relationship with you. Passing body around and having multiple partners is not the way and I stand by it.
“And I’ve lived by it. But then I turned 36 and I knew there was nothing else I wanted more than to be a mum & wife and celibacy wasn’t going to get me that! I even did a video talking about how much I wanted these two things and God has finally answered my prayers. Beyond blessed.”
