Angel’s Dad Replies Cross Following Leaked Audio Tape About His Daughter And Saskay Posted: 26 Nov 2021 04:00 AM PST The father to Reality television star, Angel Agnes Smith has reacted to the audio tape, containing the voice notes of Angel's former co-housemate, Cross, in a conversation with a lady, where they discussed about his affair with Angel and Saskay.It would be recalled that few days ago, an audio tape went viral on the internet, which had Cross describing his stand with his love interests, Angel and Saskay.Cross, in the audio conversation explained that in as much as he loves both ladies, he doesn't have any intimacy with Saskay, even though he had visited her one time, during which they discussed about their positions with each other. And for Angel, the former male Shine Ya Eye Housemate stated that he has taken Angel as the one person among her colleagues, who he gives much of his attention. Cross added that he does visit Angel most of the time, even though they've both agreed to keep their affair private, and out of the public notice. Cross made all this known, as a result of the rumour which has been making the rounds, alleging that he secretly visits Saskay, so as to keep the affair away from Angel. However, Angel's dad, identified via the Instagram platform as Baron Meyagy, told Cross in a post that he doesn't owe anyone explanation as regards who he's friends or in a relationship with, because it's his life. The man further stated that there's absolutely nothing wrong with the voice note, adding that the main issue to address is why someone's conversation has to be recorded without the person's permission. Angel's dad wrote, "Dear @crossda_boss You don't owe anybody any explanation as regards who you are FRIENDS with, have a relationship with or just cordial with, its your LIFE!. "There was absolutely nothing wrong with the VN and the issue to be ADDRESSED is why someone's convo would be recorded without his/her permission? #feelingfunky." SEE SCREENSHOT BELOW |
