Nigerian music superstar Burna Boy has been accused of cheating on his girlfriend Stefflon Don by a 23-year-old girl Jo Peal who has alleged that she and the singer had been secretly dating for two years.
Burna Boy is in a high-profile relationship with Stefflon
Don, the 28-year-old British rapper whom he has been dating since early 2019.
However, Pearl has alleged that she also dated the Afrobeats
star in the past two years.
"Two years is such a long time for a person to be
hidden," she said in the video on Instagram.
"It has affected me in so many ways, and I can't hold it any more to protect people that wouldn't protect me."
In two videos on her Instagram page, the 23-year-old
narrated how she met and fell in love with Burna Boy before he started dating
Stefflon Don.
How they met
According to her, it was Burna Boy who sent her a message on
instagram about two years ago. It took her two weeks to reply because she was
reluctant at first before her friends persuaded her.
She did it unwillingly, and they started talking. Burna Boy
invited her for his pop-up show in the United Kingdom, which was the first time
they met.
"I feel like what he made me feel like when I met him
made me feel like love at first sight. He just gravitated towards me, he was
very sweet," she said.
Although she was hesitant at first because she didn't want
to date someone in the music industry, Pearl said she soon fell in love with
Burna.
"His words actually worth his action. Not only will he
tell me like he loves me, and other personal things, he actually showed
me," she also said.
"This is somebody that wanted me around; this is
somebody who I basically moved in with."
Pearl said she moved in with Burna at his London home and
went everywhere with him. "He was a breath of fresh air," she added.
Their relationship went on well before Burna travelled to
Nigeria in November, ahead of the busy Christmas schedule.
While in Nigeria, Pearl said Burna Boy called her every day
until mid-December when she couldn't get in contact with the singer for two
weeks.
He later reached her to say that he had been hospitalized
and reassured her of his love.
"He would tell me 'I don't know what this is that we
got going on, but I like it, you are going to be my wife, I'm going to marry
you. We are going to have twins; you are my sweet Salon Jollof'," Pearl
said.
Things got weird from that December according to her. She
said she wanted to travel to Nigeria to be with Burna but his people didn't
want her to come because according to she 'makes him don't want to do
anything'.
Realtionship with
Stefflon Don
Their relationship got shaky after an argument that December
and at the end of the next month, Pearl said she started to hear of Burna's
relationship with Stefflon Don.
Although she didn't mention the specific year of these
situations, Burna Boy and Stefflon Don went public with their relationship in
January 2019 after they met at one of his shows in Ghana.
Pearl said she was devastated when she learnt of Burna Boy's
relationship with the British rapper. "I literally collapsed and cried for
days, probably even weeks," she said.
"I feel like the thing that hurt me the most is that
from the first day I met him, he always emphasized how much he just loved black
women, African women. He made me feel so good to the point; I cut my hair just
recently.
"I don't even wear makeup to go see him, he loves my
short hair, he was telling me how beautiful I am. He just truly helped boost my
self-confidence in ways I didn't think was possible and I just loved that about
him."
According to Pearl, Burna told her that he heard she had
moved on with another person after their argument in December and that was why
he went into the relationship with Stefflon Don.
Although he tried to reach out, Pearl said she was still
hurt and didn't speak to Burna from March to April.
In May, Burna reached out to explain that he still loved her
and they continued with their relationship.
Pearl also said she thought Burna's relationship with the
British rapper was a publicity stunt. "At that point, I thought this
relationship was fake anyway. I thought, there's no way this boy is going to
date someone like that only because of the things he has told me about himself.
Knowing how he is so in tune with his African heritage and black women,"
Pearl said.
Pearl said they never addressed the other relationship and
they resumed as usual. "For the past two years we have never stopped
seeing each other," she also said.
"It's just been like the elephant in the room that we
choose not to discuss and we just go about things like it doesn't exist.
"I just was in love, and I have been in love for two
years, and I have been seeing him for two years; I've just always been in the
background."
"In the past two years, he has never mentioned the
person I see him with on social media to my face. That person never gets
acknowledged, it's like she doesn't exist in our world," she also said.
"D, I'm just tired of protecting you," she said,
addressing Burna Boy. "I've got feelings too, seeing you in secret for two
years has been detrimental to my mental state. "
"It's my choice, but you guys will never understand
what it is to be in my shoes.
"I didn't do this video to hurt you. I know it will
hurt you because as far as you are concerned, me and you are on good terms but
I can't do this anymore.
"I'm not doing this for clout, I've been very private
for two years, I'm not doing this for money because financially I have been so
stable, working and having someone provide for me , so I'm simply doing this
because I'm about to burst and mentally I feel like I am in a bad place."
