I was also a victim, BBNaija’s Angel Smith responds to allegations from Soma’s ex

Angel Smith

Reality TV star Angel Smith has shared a troubling post on her X account after facing criticism on social media linked to allegations made by Soma’s ex-girlfriend, Hilda.

The post came late Wednesday amid rumour that Soma and Angel, both former Big Brother Naija contestants, were no longer together.

Earlier, Hilda accused Soma of stalking and assaulting her among other allegations which led to backlash against Angel.

Some social media users claimed Soma’s alleged ill-treatment of Hilda occurred while he was with Angel.

In response to the backlash, Angel addressed an X user, OyinOfLayLay, who criticised her for questioning Hilda about a bracelet she once gifted Soma.

The X user described Angel as a “performative feminist” and questioned her for not directing her concerns at Soma instead.

Angel responded by claiming that Hilda’s friends called her at 3 a.m. in what she felt was an attempt to intimidate her.

“You are so silly, I should get harassed? I never said she was not a victim, but she slut-shamed me, and her friends called my phone at 3 a.m., harassing me,” she wrote.

Angel stated that she never insulted Hilda despite the harassment.

The BBNaija star expressed frustration over being portrayed as the villain, saying, “Did I ever discount her story? All I asked is why I must be collateral. Why am I a prostitute? If she was a victim, what made her think I was not one as well?”

Her final remarks alarmed fans as she shared, “I have already accepted that the only time I will be loved is when I actually die.”

A few months ago, BBNaija All-Stars winner Ilebaye announced in a viral video that Angel and Soma were planning to get married in January 2025.
