By Hope Ejairu
Karen Igho, former Big Brother Africa winner, has revealed that she has been without a home for a year.
Igho, in a post on X, disclosed that she has been homeless because she is ending her union with her estranged husband, Yaroslav Rakos.
She also stated that her husband should be held accountable if anything happens to her, and asked Nigerians and Africans alike to pray for her and her children.
“I’m going through a divorce with my husband. I have been homeless for a year, and I have been hurt sexually and physically, so if anything happens, ask or hold the man who brought me to a country where I know no one. He is trying to take children away by saying I’m mentally sick.

“God Almighty bless Nigeria and Africa. My heart pray for your daughter of the soil. I have been through so much this past year. Please African, pray for my children and I. In case, you don’t hear from me again, know that I have been killed, I am not sick mentally and don’t do drugs,” she wrote.
The couple tied the knot in 2014 and are blessed with two children, however, they have had a number of marital challenges along the way leading to the recent call for divorce.
Upon winning the reality TV show, she has delved into acting, featuring in the M-Net series, Tinsel, and ‘Blackberry Babes Reloaded’ movie among others.
