Remember Richard? Most Controversial winner Of Big Brother Africa
Tanzanian born Richard Dyle Bezuidenhout is unarguably the most controversial winner of BBA. In The House, he was said to have pulled a Kemen! Apparently, it’s not the first time a housemate was allegedly having or attempting to have sexual affair with a fellow contestant.
Two weeks before winning the coveted prize of $100,000, he was seen in full glare having intimacy with Nigerian contestant, Ofunneka Molokwu, while she was drunk and unaware of her environment. Without mincing words, he admitted to have penetrated her. Although the following day, Ofunneka told ‘Big Brother’ in her ‘Diary Room Session’ that she was aware of what went down and had no regrets, a lot of viewers frowned at Richard’s actions and accused him of sexual abuse.
Shortly after the show ended, Richard played a role in a Nollywood film alongside former housemate, Meryl, and notable Nollywood actors/producers, Ini Edo and Uche Jumbo in Player No. 1.
He played the quite befitting role of a playboy about to wed while having intimate relations with his fiancée’s sisters and friend; a role which somewhat resembles his life in The House. The young, steadily rising actor/producer had issues with his wife following rumors of an affair with fellow housemate, Tatiana, but the scandal was quickly resolved.
In a post on his blog a while after leaving The House, he explained that he had to take a break from the limelight to focus on his marriage and life, which he is currently doing while acting and producing films from his film company in his home country, Tanzania.
