Former Big Brother Naija star, Queen Mercy Atang, recently shared the heartwarming story of how she met her husband, David Oyekanmi, in 2023. This comes after her previous relationship with skitmaker Lord Lamba ended.
Queen recounted her story on Instagram, explaining how a simple Snapchat post led to a life-changing connection. Despite her reluctance to post on Snapchat, she felt compelled to share a video. The next day, she received a message from David, which sparked their journey together.
She revealed that fear almost caused her to miss out on this relationship, as she had given up on love and was focused on enjoying life. Queen expressed gratitude to David for his patience and constant encouragement to pray during challenging times.
She wrote, “Thank you God for the fruit of the spirit. 2nd November 2023, I will forever cherish this date. I was on my way back from a movie set. I was already home but I had done a Snapchat video. Something kept saying to post on Snapchat.
“I really don’t like posting on Snap, but I just obeyed and posted. The next day I noticed King David had dropped a message. I replied, then went ahead to view his Snap. In my head, wow David is so fine. His girlfriend is lucky. I dropped my phone and went ahead with my business. A few minutes later came a reply from my king. He asked for my phone number, and I sent it.
“My darlings, there’s a lot on the other side of fear. How I almost allowed this precious jewel to slip off my hand all because of fear. I was tired of giving it all when it comes to love. At some point, I just wanted to enjoy life. I was done, I was tired.
“Thank you, David, for not giving up on me so fast, thank you for being patient with me. Thank you for loving me the way you do. I thank you for all the times you hold my hand in every situation and say baby let’s pray. Thank you for being my personal pastor. Always reminding me of God’s will and purpose for His children.
“I prayed and cried to God. He saw my heart and gave me a precious gift, which is you, my love. I will forever love you, my king. You’re the best I have ever had. I promise to give this my best. Forever is the goal. Happy Birthday my king, my precious jewel, My intentional man. I love you dearly, King David.”
