Nigerian actress Bamike Adenibuyan, popularly known as BamBam, has advised couples to avoid physical intimacy until they are certain about committing to marriage.
Speaking on the Echo Room podcast, the actress explained that keeping sex out of a relationship in its early stages can help couples build a stronger foundation for a lasting union.
“I would advise anybody dating, if you can keep sex out of the mix till you’re sure of getting married, just do it,” she said.
BamBam also opened up about her marriage to fellow Big Brother Naija star Tope ‘Teddy A’ Adenibuyan, admitting that they had moments of doubt about their compatibility.
“I began to evolve as a woman, and he too was discovering himself. Our differences started to clash. There were many times we questioned why we were together. We felt like the foundation wasn’t right. But I held on to God and His promises for my marriage,” she revealed.
