In a candid discussion on her podcast, Spill With Phyna, the reality star confessed that her staunch Catholic upbringing gradually waned due to the changes in Catholic doctrines initiated by the Pope. Specifically, Phyna expressed her disapproval of the Pope’s recent endorsement of same-sex marriage blessings by Catholic priests.

” I stopped going to Church. Initially, I was Catholic; that was my Church growing up, but things come dey go on. Pope don actually pass different kinds of things then wey no really sit right with me but this recent one of man and man fit come marry for not just any Church but Catholic Church, I just tell myself say no need,” Phyna revealed during the podcast.

Her personal experience sheds light on the broader impact of evolving religious stances and their influence on individuals, especially those within the global Catholic community. This revelation from a well-known figure like Phyna raises important discussions about faith, tradition, and societal change.
