Sandra Essien, the recently evicted Big Brother (BBTitans) housemate, has recounted how she escaped being raped twice.
The reality star spoke about her unpleasant past ordeal during the recent episode of Hero’s Daniel’s Therapy session.
Sandra said when she was aged 16, she worked as a bartender in order to support her family — following the demise of her dad.
The reality star said she was molested on several occasions at the bar, adding that “men were tapping my a**.”
She also said on two occasions — while returning home very late from the bar — she was almost raped.
“I am an only child. My dad is late. Ain’t got no siblings. And when my dad died in like 2015, I started working,” she said.
“I got my first job when I was 16 years old. I used to bartend at a bar – an open bar, in this place they call 100 Degrees. I think I escaped rape twice ‘cos I used to go back home at night.
“I had to do something for my mum. I had to contribute to my family. My dad’s family took everything from us, except the car.
“Men were tapping my a*s. Just doing the weird things that drunks would do.”
Speaking on her mental health since she left the reality TV show, Sandra said “I have had mental breakdowns almost every day.
“It is triggered by how disappointed I am. I think I’m gonna be pained for a long time. That I tried Big Brother three times and then my fourth time and I got out in like two weeks. That’s really painful.”
Last Sunday, Sandra and Theo Traw were booted out of the reality TV show.
