Paul Okoye’s Girlfriend, Ivy, Addresses Criticism: “Being Called a Home-Wrecker is Painful
“Ivy Ifeoma, the girlfriend of renowned singer Paul Okoye, popularly known as Rudeboy, has candidly shared the challenges she has faced in the wake of her relationship with the music icon. Paul Okoye, 41, introduced Ifeoma, then 22, as his new girlfriend in December 2022, a year after finalizing his divorce from ex-wife Anita Okoye.
The revelation sparked intense criticism on social media, with some users condemning Paul for the end of his eight-year marriage to Anita. In a recent interview with Cool FM Nigeria, Lagos, Ivy reflected on the barrage of negative comments she has received.
The 23-year-old acknowledged receiving numerous harsh remarks on social media, which she usually brushes aside. However, she emphasized that being labeled a ‘home-wrecker’ was particularly hurtful.
In her own words during the interview, Ivy shared, “I have seen a lot.
My eyes have seen a lot. Well, I do not really want to say a thing, but you know, especially when it was in the heat of the moment for me. I was getting a lot of bad DMs.”She continued, “People were just like randomly saying things about me. Not graphical images.
People were just typing rubbish. I overlook them most of the time. People saying I’m a home wrecker is quite painful. It’s most painful because where did you get your facts from?”This revelation sheds light on the emotional toll public scrutiny can take, urging a reevaluation of the impact of online commentary on individuals in the public eye.Credit: Vanguard News
