Nollywood actress, Bimbo Ademoye has shared details about her relationship with her mother who she claimed was the first person to betray her.
During an interview on a podcast with media personality Hauwa Magaji, Bimbo Ademoye revealed that they have a strained relationship because her mother walked out of her life when she was just two years old.
She explained that her mother lives close to her, just 15-20 minutes away, but they don’t share a close friendship, and she is comfortable with that arrangement.
The actress, however, emphasized that she still takes care of her mother’s needs, pay her rents and allowances as a responsible child.
Despite their lack of a close bond, Bimbo acknowledged her mother’s beauty and robust health while noting the physical traits she inherited from both her parents.
She said, “My mother is alive. She lives about 15-20 minutes away from me. We just don’t have a friendship. I do not talk about it because I would love for people to respect that. I am a very private person. My mother left when I was two.
“My first ever betrayal came from my mother. We tried to rekindle the relationship — I would not want to use the word rekindle because there was no romance there because I did not get to know her but I tried to build a relationship with her. Right now, we have a relationship. I am doing my duty as a child. I pay for this, pay for the rent and allowances.
“That is about what we have. I am very okay with that and I am open with the no friendship, no closeness that we have for my mental health and my own sanity.
“My mother is very much alive and she is very beautiful and robust. My father is light-skinned. I got my skin colour from my father and my weight from my mother.”
