Toyin Abraham, a popular Nigerian actress has disclosed that she recently lost her pregnancy.
The actress said she struggled with fame and had a hard time tolerating all the bad comments she received.
In her interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Rubbin Minds show that was aired by Channels TV on Sunday, she noted that she has built a tough skin for her critics.
“Yes, I was actually pregnant recently. I lost it, but it’s fine. You know, most times they don’t always know what we are going through,” she said.
The amazing actress said she was heartbroken when she lost the pregnancy. It pushed her into depression, she said, revealing also that she cried a lot during this period.
“When it happened, I cried. I just wanted to have one or two more children and I will be done. Things happened, I was so bloated and everyone kept battering me! Saying ‘look at you! You are too fat! look at your husband! He is young.”
“But they don’t understand, so when they say all these things, guess what, I’m used to it. As an actress, you just have to or else you’d fall into depression,” she said.
The thespian said she is no longer affected by negative comments from social media users. When she finds something she disagrees with, she hits the block button, she said.
“Once I see it and if I am not okay with the comments and you keep going, I will just block you. I don’t have time for negative energy,” Toyin said.
“They always want you to have a child, obviously yes! I have a stepdaughter and a son. So they keep asking, “When are you going to have another one, When are you going to give birth? It’s not always easy… When the time is right, the pregnancy will stay.”
The Nollywood star married his hearthrob Kola Ajeyemi in 2019 and she is one of the top most paid actresses in Nigeria.
