Big Brother Naija Season 10 runner-up, Dede, has broken her silence on her relationship with fellow housemate, Kola.

But in a recent post-show interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the reality star made it clear that the feelings fans thought they saw on screen were never strong enough to lead to a real relationship.
She stated:
“I do like Kola, but it is not enough for a relationship. He is an amazing person. I will always sing his praise regardless of what it is. But it’s not enough for what we thought it is."
During her time in the house, Dede openly mentioned she was already in a committed relationship outside the show.
Still, her bond with Kola became one of the show’s highlights, drawing attention from fans who saw them as the next big BBNaija couple.
Viewers quickly nicknamed them “Koldede” and flooded social media with clips of their playful moments, often debating whether Dede’s real-life boyfriend stood a chance once she left the house.
However, Dede’s latest confession might have just sunk that ship for good. She explained that while she admired Kola’s personality, she eventually got tired of their dynamic.
She revealed:
“At some point, I got bored. Things became predictable. I think our connection just ran its course before the season ended."
