Personal Life
Purple Speedy has been very open about her love for the vibrant color purple, noting that she always wanted to have her possessions in that color but did not have the resources as a child. Now, she is fondly known for having purple hair, clothes, and accessories.
“Purple has always been my favourite colour,” she said in a 2023 interview. “Somebody told me that when I was much younger, they never saw me with purple, and I told the person, ‘When I was much younger, I didn’t have the resources to actually get everything I wanted in purple.’ I’ve actually loved the colour for a very long time. It’s the same way ladies always do things with pink. I actually wanted to do something for myself with that colour, but I couldn’t get everything I wanted. Purple is not as rampant as other colours. So, I basically just loved the colour and I wanted my stuff to be in purple,” she added.
The content creator spent most of her life in Benue State but now lives in the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria, Abuja. Purple Speedy is also in a relationship with fellow TikTok star Elijah Chinye, fondly known as Crispdal.
