Ruby Ojiakor addresses rumours of affair with late actor Junior Pope

Nollywood actress Ruby Ojiakor has finally reacted to rumours suggesting that the late actor Junior Pope was in an extramarital relationship with her.

Speculations arose that Ruby was Junior Pope’s girlfriend after she persistently used her platform to demand justice for the actor, who died in a boat accident while on set.

The rumours gained traction when the late actor’s wife, Jennifer, unfollowed Ruby on Instagram shortly after her husband’s burial.

But in a video message shared on her Instagram page, Ruby clarified that Junior Pope was never her boyfriend.

She also refuted claims that the late actor was the father of her child, Royalty.

“Junior Pope was never my boyfriend. There was no intimacy between us. We never dated. He was just my friend, more like a big brother,” she stated.

“I also see a lot of posts claiming that Junior Pope is Royalty’s father. I just laugh at how people can think this way. Please, Junior Pope is not Royalty’s father. He’s not my daughter’s father. I just want to set the record straight.”
