Josephina Ijeoma Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, is an actress and controversial Big Brother Naija personality. Through her podcast, “Spill With Phyna,” she recently started a conversation about relationship dynamics. Phyna discussed her opinions on the significance of wealth when selecting a partner in the most recent episode, which featured singer Khalid as a guest.
Phyna, who is renowned for speaking her mind, made it clear that having money is not the main factor she looks for in a potential partner. Instead, she stressed the significance of love and care. She declared in the podcast, “I do not give your financial situation priority when it comes to choosing a partner. What matters most to me is genuine love and care. I can manage my financial obligations.”
By highlighting her financial independence, Phyna disproved the social norm that says a person’s financial situation should be a major factor in dating choices.
Phyna acknowledged the common concerns men may have about dating women who are more affluent throughout the conversation. She questioned this prevalent wisdom, arguing in favor of a change in perspective that prioritizes real relationships over material gain.
In response, visitor Khalid said he would be open to dating a wealthier woman. However, he emphasized the importance of mutual respect and rejected the notion that financial differences should lead to discrimination or imbalance within the relationship.
