In a recent interview Perri Shakes-Drayton, wife of Big Brother Naija 1st Runner up, and last man standing, Mike who is also a British Olympian athlete and TV personality, opened up on different issues about her wedding to Mike and their relationship so far.

Speaking on her thoughts thoughts when Mike was leaving for the Big Brother Naija and was to stay for 99 days, Perri said: “It was really hard that I wasn’t going to see my husband for 99 days and I didn’t even realise he made it into the house and I was like, wow, this is going to be harder than I thought. A long time without my husband and we were newly married.”

On their marriage: “We got married May 23 this year and three weeks after then my husband travelled to Nigeria and he had to stay in the Big Brother House for 99 days. Although many have celebrated Mike for his conduct in the house, I never thought anything different would happen at any point.”

If she felt threatened at any time throughout his stay in the house: “I didn’t feel threatened; I couldn’t have felt that way because I know him and the kind of person he is.”

… even when some of the ladies did some things or dressed in certain ways?

“Yes, there was no such thing as a threat or thinking that he could be tempted but I did see some things and I felt ‘Huh, what’s going on here?’ But then I trust my husband, he is a good looking young man but I trust him absolutely. You guys are even talking about whatever happened inside the Big Brother house. I am talking about outside the house where I’ve had more of that. I have seen people trying to claim my husband and I will be like ‘no, no, no I can’t share, Mike belongs to me,’ Perry. Okay.
But I know it was all love because my husband demonstrated being a real man, he did have some funny expressions on his face sometimes but it didn’t happen beyond that point and I am so proud of my husband.”
Mike is such a gentleman. The reason I fell in love with him”
