Why my wife unfollowed me on social media, refuses to watch my films – Deyemi Okanlawon explains

Deyemi Okanlawon has revealed how his wife of more than a decade manages his famous status.

The actor and filmmaker, who recently welcomed his third kid, a boy, with his wife, also made some unexpected and intriguing remarks on how he maintains his house despite his celebrity.

Deyemi Okanlawon revealed that his wife does not follow him on social media and does not watch any of his movies because she does not want to know what he does at work.

Regarding how Deyemi Okanlawon handles his wife’s inability to cope with his life in the spotlight as a well-known actor, 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 She was a bit withdrawn, things were changing, and then I tried to have the conversation but even she didn’t realize that she was reacting.

So it took a while of consistently trying to say what’s going on because you’re changing and there’s a difference, before she now finally even looked at it by herself and realized okay, there’s a problem, we need to sit down and we need to talk. And we had the conversation.

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.

When my films started showing when I started out on things like DSTV and local channels, we decided that okay we’re no longer watching local channels, let us go and look for international channels. Now I’m inside international channels, we’re looking at ourselves and we’re playing card games in the house.

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.”
