Controversial reality TV star Josephina Ijeoma Otabor, popularly known as Phyna, has reacted to rumours she is dating 17-year-old singer, Khaid.

Phyna and Khaid sparked relationship rumours after sharing their cozy picture on social media.

The reality star was heavily criticized because of the age difference between her and the singer.

However, speaking in the latest episode of her Spill With Phyna podcast, Phyna lamented what she termed hypocrisy of society.

The BBN star wondered about the disparity between men and women when it comes to choosing younger partners.

 “Me and this boy take picture; Khaid. He is young and the picture, I posted it,” she stated.

“He posted it as well. Omo, if you see the dragging, ‘Oh Phyna, is this boy you’re dating now?’, ‘Oh Phyna is 30-year-old, this boy is 10 years old.’

“It was so terrible that I was now wondering that in this country we have ladies who are married to way older men. So, I want to know the difference between being a younger man and being a younger girl. Why can’t we have the same balance, I thought they said age is just a number?”
