Reality star and actress, Phyna, has revealed more details about her estranged family and her reason for dropping her surname.

Recall that the winner of Big Brother Naija season 7 took to social media to announce her decision to drop her family name.

This comes following the issues happening between her and her family following an interview her father granted accusing her of neglecting them.

Displeased by this, Phyna responded, saying her family expects too much from her.

Explaining her reason to drop her surname, Phyna stated that she has finally accepted what has always been the reality that her family has never seen her as one of their own.

According to her, no family member has reached out to her since she announced plans to stop using her surname.

She added that she has always walked through life alone for a long time and has been coping well. Dropping her surname was a way to make it official.
