Nigerian film actor, Deyemi Okanlawon has revealed that his wife unfollowed him on social media and has refused to watch movies he starred on.
He stated this in an interview while sharing how he navigated becoming a popular actor and dealing with his wife, Damilola, who has a hard time handling this.
The actor also asserts that his wife finds it difficult to handle his life in the limelight as a popular actor and they had to handle it together.
He said:There was a time I took it for granted that my wife understood the nature of my job, until I started noticing a few things. She was a bit withdrawn, things were changing, and then I tried to have the conversation but even she didn’t realize that she was reacting.
People look at her and say oh she’s quiet, she’s reserved, she can handle it. She can’t handle it. We had to handle it together.
So right now my wife does not follow me on Instagram, by her choice. She said she does not want to see.
You have to do everything you can to protect and preserve your environment. I don’t take it for granted that it’s not easy for her, so I still have to check in once in a while.”
