Brazilian supermodel, Gisele Bundchen has broken her silence about her divorce from NFL star, Tom Brady, describing the split as the 'death of her dream.'
Speaking to Vanity Fair for an
interview to accompany a stunning cover shoot for the magazine's April
issue, Gisele, 42, described the speculation surrounding her split from
Tom, 45, as 'very hurtful', while insisting that she has only ever
'wanted all his dreams to come true'.
'Listen, I have always cheered for him, and I would continue forever,' she said. 'If there’s one person I want to be the happiest in the world, it’s him, believe me. I want him to achieve and to conquer. I want all his dreams to come true. That’s what I want, really, from the bottom of my heart.'
While vehemently denying that her divorce had anything to do with Tom's decision to U-turn on his retirement from the NFL, Gisele who added that the split has been 'like a death and a rebirth' - said that the reason behind their split after 13 years of marriage was much more innocent, claiming that the pair simply 'grew apart' and realized that they wanted 'different things'.
'Sometimes
you grow together; sometimes you grow apart,' she said. 'When I was 26
years old and he was 29 years old, we met, we wanted a family, we wanted
things together.
'As time goes by, we realize that we just wanted different things, and now we have a choice to make. That doesn’t mean you don’t love the person. It just means that in order for you to be authentic and truly live the life that you want to live, you have to have somebody who can meet you in the middle, right? It’s a dance. It’s a balance.'
The supermodel, whose fashion career has seen a massive resurgence since her split from Tom - also furiously shut down any suggestion that she is 'against football', saying that she 'loved' watching her former husband on the field.
She even spoke out to defend his lackluster final season with the Buccaneers, appearing to blame for their losses on Tom's teammates, saying: 'It's a team sport and you can't play alone. I think he did great under the circumstances. I mean, he had no offensive line.'
Tom and Gisele finalized their divorce on October 28 last year, calling time on their marriage with a gushing public announcement shared on social media.
The NFL star wrote: 'In recent days, my wife and I finalized our divorce from one another after 13 years of marriage. We arrived at this decision amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together.'
Tom and Gisele's announcement of their split came after weeks of speculation that their marriage was on the rocks with many rumors suggesting that the tension between the pair was caused by the NFL player's shock decision to reverse his retirement plans and return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for another season.
Since the split,
Gisele has been linked with two men - first, her jiujitsu instructor
Joaquim Valente and then Elle Macpherson's billionaire ex-husband
Jeffrey Soffer - however she insists that she is not dating either
person.
'I think, at this point, unfortunately, because
I’m divorced, I’m sure that they’re going to try to attach me to
anything,' she said.

A guy, Richard Spencer who suffered horrific violence at this hands of his wife for two decades has opened up about the harrowing 20 years.
Sheree Spencer, a mother of three tiny daughters and a senior official at the Ministry of Justice, was sentenced last Thursday to four years in jail at Hull Court.
The court said it was “the worst case of controlling and coercive behaviour”.
Afterwards, Richard discussed the verdict in an interview with DailyMail reporter Rebecca Hardy. Richard stated:
“I felt absolutely nothing the few times I glanced across at Sheree. I didn’t feel anger. I didn’t feel scared. I didn’t have any emotion.
“But I was hyper-conscious of how my family was reacting when the judge described the horrific things she’d done.
“To hear the judge use the same language Sheree used — the f-word and the c-word — the things she called me like ‘bitch’ and knowing my family were hearing those things was…,”
he stops as he struggles to find the words. 46-year-old Richard continues:
“When I think about those memories, I don’t feel associated to them. It’s like they happened to someone else. I know it was me but, in my mind, I can’t understand how I could have allowed that to happen.”
Her campaign of violence and intimidation is almost too shocking to catalogue. She spat in his face. Hit him with whatever she had to hand- a bottle, a mobile phone, a TV remote control.
On one occasion, she defecated on the floor, then forced him to clear it up. On another, she beat him with a wine bottle so hard it permanently disfigured his ear.
Richard has a degree in computing at Leeds Metropolitan University and a position at BT in network design that soon saw him addressing global conferences as an expert in his field. Yet, that didn’t stop him from suffering extreme abuse.
He shared videos of abuse which were captured on a security camera in the children’s playroom.
In the video seen by the Dailymail correspondent, Sheree’s uncontrolled fury was described as “the most terrifying ever witnessed.” She threatens him with a knife, drags him to the floor, kicks him, punches him.
“Get the f***ing chicken on! Get to the f***ing shop,” she screams. “You will learn.”
He cowers in the video and pleads with her to stop. When officers from Humberside police interviewed Richard at the family’s seven-bedroom home in a leafy village near York following Sheree’s arrest in June 2021, the investigating officer was so disturbed by what she heard she had to leave the room.
“She was crying,” Richard recalls while weeping.
“When the things that have happened to me upset someone else I feel guilty,” he explains. “I just feel that no normal person would have let that happen.”
Richard said he was made to feel worthless at home. As difficult as he finds talking about it now, he is determined to speak out to “help as many other people in a similar situation as I can,” he says.
Looking back to the start of their relationship, it is a miracle Richard can recall any fondness at all. He recounts:
“For the first couple of years it was 95 per cent nice times and 5 per cent not nice times. It evolved. By the time she was punching me so I was having to wear make-up to hide the bruises, the abuse had become the norm.
“I felt I deserved to be punished. I lost my independence and willpower and just accepted that was how my life was going to be. In the end, she controlled everything from which room I could sleep in to which toilet I could use. I was no longer me.”
When Richard met Sheree at a nightclub in 2000, he was a confident, fun-loving 23-year-old who went to the gym, loved music and travel, had a wide circle of friends and liked nothing more than to spend time with his family.
His mum had died when he was nine, but he was close to his dad, younger sister and extended family, including a stepmother he now calls “Mum”.
Sheree, then 22 and hugely attractive, was “this fun, effervescent, really confident person who everyone liked. She’d do really kind things, buy thoughtful gifts,” Richard says.
He remembers an early romantic break in Venice before the violence began. He tells Rebecca Hardy:
“I remember going to a Vivaldi concert in a church or cathedral and a meal at a nice restaurant afterwards. Walking back to the hotel by the canals was quite atmospheric — unlike memories of most of the other cities we went to, which are tainted by evenings when she’d become abusive.”
Sheree, who was from Sunderland, didn’t have “the best childhood,” Richard says. “She’d moved around a lot and witnessed abuse herself.
“She would go into detail about when her mum and dad got drunk. I wanted to help her. She was the first person I’d fallen in love with.”
The violence began a few months into their relationship when she was staying at his flat in Ipswich. The arguments would start ‘always when she’d be drinking,” he says.
“They could be about anything — normally something I’d done or not done. In the early stages it was pushing me, breaking things and slapping me. The next day she’d be extremely apologetic and say she wouldn’t let it happen again.
“She’d write little notes saying she loved me. I’d apologise too because, although I wouldn’t have been the one shouting, I’d feel I played a role in the argument.
“Sheree would explain her behaviour by saying, ‘If you hadn’t done that, then I wouldn’t have done this.’ You’d think, ‘OK, I can see why she’s saying that.'”
Why he didn’t end their relationship when they were merely dating is something he still can’t explain. He says:
“I’ve got quite a lot of blank periods in my mind. I felt like I was in love with her probably for years and I thought she was with me, but looking back now I don’t think I’d call it love any more.”
He even excused her having an affair with a friend of his in January 2007 because, he says, “it was my fault for working long hours and neglecting her. I had an internet business I worked on in the evening because I wanted us to be financially secure.
“She said I had also been disloyal by putting my family before her because I’d gone alone to a party at my auntie’s, that she didn’t want to go to, on the night the affair began. She said I deserved it — how could I have thought she was right?”
Following her affair, Richard’s relationship with his family, whom Sheree insisted “judged” her, became increasingly distant. He saw friends less and less. He says:
“I have found lots of emails from Sheree telling me how much she loves me and that I am her soulmate. So I think the period after the affair and deciding to make a go of things must have been a nice, calm time leading up to our marriage.”
Richard says now he still believed he loved Sheree on their wedding day in December 2009.
So much so, he agreed to slip away to Thailand, on the pretext of a holiday, to marry her at a luxury, beachfront hotel in the Phi Phi Islands without a single friend or family member present. He recalls:
“It wasn’t the best of days. Sheree got drunk and angry with the people who came to do her hair and told them to get out. I made an excuse in my mind that she was being like that because of the pressure of the day. I even said to her, ‘Everyone has butterflies’.
“Believe it or not, I felt marriage was a natural progression. When we came back, I wanted to think of it as a fresh start. But we never really got back on track.”
The violence escalated, particularly when, year after year, they tried unsuccessfully to start a family.
“She’d say to me, ‘When I have a baby, I’ll be happy. I won’t mind you working all those hours.’ We actually had a phrase for it ‘baby dance’ and sometimes I had to ‘dance’ twice a day.
“If I wasn’t physically able, she’d say things like, ‘All you’ve got to do is perform. You’re not a man.’
“As she got more desperate she got really angry. She’d talk about my size to insult me. I resorted then to getting Viagra-type drugs online. There weren’t any pleasurable feelings.”
After three fruitless years, they decided upon IVF. When the third cycle failed in February 2014, Sheree’s violent explosions increased.
So much so that in April Richard was admitted to A&E requiring stitches after Sheree smashed a wine glass on his head.
Yet again, he made excuses, feeling that she lashed out through disappointment.
“I thought a baby was going to answer our problems,” he says.
Their eldest child was eventually conceived in 2015 during their sixth cycle of IVF. Richard says her burth was “amazing.”
He fell in love with his daughter the moment he held her. However, his joy was short-lived. When they came back home, things deteriorated. A move to a larger property — a seven-bedroom house near York — did not ease the strain.
“She started really attacking me a year after we moved when our daughter was about 14 months,” he says.
“It would go on over a period of hours. She’d attack me and then sit back down. I’d try to placate her, then she’d get back up and start hitting and punching me again. Eventually she’d go to sleep on the playroom floor because she’d been drinking.
“When she got angry, one of the ways she used to hurt me was smashing my laptop on the floor. Once she picked one up and put it straight in the washing-up water. I probably got through five or six laptops, so I used to hide them.
“That was about the time when she began to threaten me about our daughter. She said she was going to smash her face in the mirror and cut it, then call the police and say I’d done it so I wouldn’t be able to see her.
“So I started gathering the recordings from the camera in the playroom and take photographs of my injuries because I thought I needed to protect myself.
“Still in my mind, I wanted us to be together. I really loved the family unit. We had one embryo left. Sheree didn’t want our daughter to be an only child. I rationalised in my mind, ‘If we have another baby we’ll get through this.’ It’s crazy, isn’t it?”
Their middle daughter was conceived during the first cycle of IVF. Within four months of her birth, Sheree was pregnant again with a child they’d conceived naturally. Richard says:
“Sheree had always wanted three children and, once she was born, that’s when, what I now know they call, ‘the discard phase’ began.
“She wanted the house, wanted the kids and wanted me to pay maintenance. She’d whisper in my ear, ‘You’ll never win. Watch this.’
“She’d open the bedroom window and shout, ‘Richard stop it. You’re hurting me. Don’t hit me.’ Then, she’d shut the window and say, ‘I told you you’ll never beat me. I’m much cleverer than you’.”
The violence and drinking escalated. For days on end, Sheree would lie on the sofa drinking as much as three bottles of wine a day. At 3am, she would slap Richard awake and make him drive to the garage to get more. He continues:
“At night, when I was alone in bed, either in pain after being beaten with a bottle or completely demoralised, I’d imagine a switch on the wall and that it could end all the pain and the feeling of hopelessness.
“I’d visualise getting out of bed, pressing the switch and the darkness turning into pure light. Nothing else would exist — just the bright warm light and I would be absorbed into it.
“I felt guilty I’d become estranged from my family and thought it might be easier for them if I wasn’t here.
“Then I thought about the sadness they would feel if I was gone and how it would affect my children, so I knew I’d never get out of bed and press that switch no matter how bad things got.”
The violence continued until Tony, an old dear friend of Richard’s who worked as a military policeman, intervened one night and alerted the authorities.
Tony, who Richard hadn’t seen for several years, had gone to the family’s home following a drunken phone call from Sheree who’d called to say that she was being abused.
When he arrived, Richard finally confessed the truth, sharing with Tony his disturbing video footage and images of his injuries.
Rechard recalls:
“Tony said, ‘I’ve got to do what I think is best for you as a friend and for the kids. Even if you hate me now, I hope in the future you’ll think it’s for the right reason.’ I said, ‘You do what you have to do.'”
Sheree was on the sofa and in a state of semi-undress when officers arrived at the house later that night to arrest her. Their eldest daughter, woken by the noise, wandered downstairs and saw the police.
“I took her to the spare room and sat with her while Sheree got some clothes. My daughter was stood at the window and could see her mum being put in the police van,”
Richard says in tears as he thinks of his children’s suffering.
“When the police came back that night to take a statement, I made excuses for Sheree. They were so empathetic. All the fears I’d had about not being believed disappeared, but I’d spent half of my lifetime trying to rationalise her behaviour. It was natural for me to defend her — even to the police.”
The following day, two officers and a social worker arrived to inform Richard that Sheree was being charged.
The scales finally dropped from Richard’s eyes when he was told of her reaction to a video the police showed her when she threatened Richard with a knife.
“They told me they’d played her a video, first without sound, of her telling me she was going to burst my car tyres because I’d looked at her in a certain way. She’d gone outside, cut the tyre and came back holding the knife which she held against my neck.
“She watched it and said, ‘OK, so what’s happened is I’ve got a knife because I’ve been telling him I want a divorce and that he may as well kill me if he won’t give me one. I’m trying to hand him the knife because I can’t take it any more.”
They then played the video with the sound and asked her, “Have you got anything to say?” She just shrugged and said, “There’s not much I can say, is there?”
“I thought when she saw the video she wouldn’t believe she was capable of that and would get very upset. But the police said she never showed any emotion. I knew then her whole life was a tapestry of lies,” says Richard.
In total, Richard handed police 36 videos, nine audio recordings and 43 photographs of the abuse. Sheree was charged and issued with a restraining order.
“I felt like an elephant had got off my neck,” says Richard.
“I could breathe. I rang my dad. He came straight over with my youngest sister and step-mum. They were crying and hugging me. They’d only seen my oldest two daughters a couple of times and never met my youngest, so it was partly a reunion and partly traumatic.”
His family have been nothing but supportive since.
“I don’t know if they feel they should have known. We haven’t talked about it. We might one day but how was anyone to know? It hurts me that this has affected so many people.”
Richard accepts it will take many years, if ever, for his mental scars to heal. For now, he wants only to give his lovely daughters the calmest, most stable two years he can before their mother is released from prison.
“I’ve been struggling because everyone has been so kind it’s overwhelming,”
he admits.

Biodun Okeowo, a Nigerian actress, has discussed the difficulties of being a single mother in honor of Mother's Day.
The mother of two teenagers and Yoruba movie star said that she has previously lost her temper with her kids and yelled obscenities out of exasperation.
Yet, she is grateful for God’s grace as she doesn’t appear like what she has went through.
Biodun made a prayer for other single mothers, not forgetting them.
She wrote:
“This brought tears to my eyes. This is exactly what motherhood is to a single parent, who is hustling to make ends meet.
So many times I’ve lost my cool like this on my children in the past… Said unprintable words out of frustration.
Hmmm let me stop, but all I have to say is thank God for His mercy. We don’t look like what we’ve passed through.
If you are a single parent, that God in His infinite Mercy sends you help from His sanctuary and connect you to your destiny helper from this moment.
Alaanu kan soso bi egberun eniyan, ki Olorun ko ran si yin.”

Alakija wrote;
“Growing up as a girl, I dreamt of becoming a lawyer, but my father had other plans for me. He insisted that I become a secretary instead, despite having the means to support my aspirations.
His reasoning was that I would eventually get married and change my last name, making any investment in my career a waste of resources.
Sadly, my experience is not unique. Women around the world continue to face obstacles and discrimination, depriving them of the opportunity to fulfill their potential. But this must change.
It is high time that society recognizes the immense value and contributions that women bring. Women are hardworking, possess the necessary skills, and have invaluable assets that can significantly benefit society. Yet, they often face unequal opportunities and discrimination compared to their male counterparts.
As a woman who has experienced discrimination first-hand, I urge you to join me in calling for change. Let us empower ourselves and each other to break free from limiting beliefs and expectations.
In my book, Folorunso Alakija Speaks, I share my thoughts on how women can shift their mindset from being part of the pack to leading it. I encourage every woman to read it and take action to make a difference in their life and the lives of others.
As we celebrate women this month, let us acknowledge their achievements and commit to supporting and empowering them. Together, we can create a world where every woman has the opportunity to pursue their dreams and reach their full potential.”

The iconic footballer David Beckham, 47, and the British fashion designer Victoria Beckham, 47, have disclosed that they have blocked their 10-year-old daughter Harper from using social media.
The 48-year-old super mom said that she placed the ban because she wants to protect her daughter from “body shamers” at her young age.
Speaking to Vogue Australia, the former Spice Girl star said:
“Harper isn’t on social media, so we don’t have to worry about [body-shaming] just yet.
“Seeing how cruel people can be [online] yes, it really does [concern me].”
Victoria, who also is mother to sons Brooklyn, 23, Romeo, 19, Cruz, 17, went on to say that she helps her daughter surround herself with good friends in a bid to boost her confidence.
She further shared:
“She’s at that age where her body is going to start changing, but it’s about making sure that we communicate a lot as a family and she surrounds herself with nice friends.
But it is quite terrifying, I can’t lie.”
Her comments come after a 2021 survey by Girlguiding found that two in five girls (40 per cent) aged 11 to 16 in the UK felt insecure or less confident after seeing certain images online.
Victoria mentioned in another part of the interview that Harper didn't like the miniskirts she wore while she was a member of the Spice Girls.
She uttered:
“She’s not one of these kids who are going out with a full face of makeup and a crop top.
She actually said to me recently, ‘Mummy, I’ve seen some pictures of you when you were in the Spice Girls and your skirts were just unacceptable. They were just too short’.
Then David piped up and said, ‘Absolutely Harper! They really, really were’. And she was actually quite disgusted at how short my skirts were.”
When asked if she was ever going to wear skirts as short as her mother did, Harper responded: “Absolutely not.”

Paris Hilton has confessed that she kept her child’s birth a secret from her close family until he was born and she had to gift her mother Kathy Hilton a blue Chanel purse while announcing the arrival of her baby boy Phoenix Barron.
The 40-year-old businesswoman, singer, and actress also said that she and her husband Carter Reum, a businessman, had welcomed a boy via surrogate late in January.
Before Paris was about to announce it on Instagram, the couple kept both of their close families in the dark.
Paris has now disclosed that she first handed Kathy her grandson before giving her an expensive handbag in a new interview with Rolling Stone.
“I was like, if I give her Chanel first, maybe she won’t be so upset that I didn’t tell her about this,”
Paris confessed to the magazine.
The moment Kathy met Phoenix for the first time was captured on reality TV cameras for the Peacock series Paris In Love. Paris described the scene:
”I was holding the baby on my shoulder with a blanket over him, and then I just sat down.”
Paris said her mother was like:
‘What is that?’ And I was like: ‘A baby…meet your grandson.’ She’s like: ‘Is this yours?’ And she starts crying. She’s like: ‘Let me hold him. He’s the most beautiful baby I’ve ever seen in my life. Oh, he’s so beautiful.’ She was just in tears.”
Recently she explained why she and Carter hid the baby’s birth from even their immediate families until right before she made the Instagram announcement. She told Harper’s Bazaar:
“My entire life has been so public. I’ve never had anything for myself. We decided that we wanted to have this whole experience to ourselves.”
She said of her son:
“I want to protect him and to be with him every second. You have this mother instinct that kicks in, which I’ve never had before.”
On a recent episode of her podcast This Is Paris, she disclosed that Phoenix was “like over a week old” before she told her mother Kathy and her sister Nicky about his birth. She added:
“When I introduced my mom to our baby boy, it was amazing to see the look on her face, she was so surprised. Just the look on her face, it was just priceless.”
In her new book titled simply Paris: The Memoir, Hilton shared her complicated story in her own words. The memoir sees Hilton reveal the deeper stories behind some of the most talked-about moments in her life —that sex tape, for instance—and discuss issues like her struggles with ADHD and her painful time at Provo Canyon School.

A lady from Nigeria who goes by the name Olasumbo has used social media to display her remarkable metamorphosis six years after leaving her marriage with her two children.
The 30-year-old described how leaving her marriage turned out to be a choice she's forever glad for while showing images of herself six years ago when she was married with more current ones.
Olasumbo claims that she was emotionally, mentally, and financially drained when she left her marriage in 2017.
Lawyer Olasumbo claimed she had no idea what to do next but knew she had to flee for her life and defend her children at all costs.
On Sunday, March 19, 2023, Olasumbo celebrated Mother's Day and tweeted about her experience.
Read her full story below,
“This is what I looked like when I walked out of my marriage in 2017 with two toddlers. I just clocked 30, I was mentally, emotionally and financially drained. I was tired and i knew i had to walk away. Did i know what i was going to do next? No but i walked,” she wrote.
“Okay let me tell you why it looks all shitty, I left my marriage clueless about the next thing to do but knew I had to run for my life yet I has no family support. I was not lucky to come from a stable family background, my ex saw this and capitalised on it.
“The marriage was 4 years old as at when it officially ended but it was dead from the beginning. I know the judginas will ask if I didn’t see the red flag…well story for another day but well the deed has been done and now I have two kids who had no fault.
“My entire desire was to protect my kids. I mean they know nothing about the folly and stupidity of the parents that brought them to this world. I saved up and got my own apartment. I remember crying so much the first night I moved into my new home. I was scared.
“I had never gone on this kind of journey before and I don’t know how to walk this path. I was totally confused and clueless. I was more afraid for my kids, scared they would suffer which i do not want, what if they fall sick and I can’t take care of them? So many what ifs.
“All these was in 2017….this is 2023 and yes it has not been a smooth journey…my life has taken a pause because I was not opportune to have a family support and I had to learn, unlearn and relearn on my own. My career has suffered so much. Yes.
“My wants, desires has all been pushed to the base because I can’t afford all at once so my kids come first..it has not been an easy ride doing this alone, no single financial support from the man who bore them even though he has 100% access to these kids.
“I look back today and ask myself if it is all worth it and Yes I am happy I made that decision. I am proud of the pains, the tears, the laughter. I am proud for holding myself strong despite the stigma and backlash that comes with being a single mom. HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY TO ME.”

“the stylist/creative director has now tagged me in their reel after numerous comments because the creator has their comments limited, which is great.. but the fact this has been up for a while now and if nobody had commented I probably would never have got any credit is wild lol”
Since clothes and poses are usually not copyrighted, imitation is flattery, but giving some credit to your inspiration doesn’t hurt either.

J. Cole, has revealed that he started smoking at the age of six.
In the “Lead by Example With Bob Myers” podcast, the “No Role Modelz” crooner discussed being raised by a single mother, Kay, and how she was disappointed when she discovered that he was smoking at just 6.
Cole, 38, said:
“At six years old, I was smoking cigarettes regularly around the neighborhood. … I was always hanging around the older kids in the neighborhood that (my older brother) was hanging around, and they were smoking. And I was young and fearless and trying to be cool. So, it was like, ‘Oh, y’all smoking. Like, let me see that.’ And, of course, we’re all out there kinda (with) young parents, with long leashes. To them, it’s funny. They’re 10 themselves. So, it’s funny for them. Nobody’s really worried about me. Nobody is like, ‘Hey! Don’t do that.’ They’re 10 and smoking cigarettes.”
He would go on to narrate how his mother’s reaction to his smoking habit changed him. She found out after his brother told her.
He said:
“20 minutes later, my brother walks back to the backyard where we was at. ‘Jermaine!’ He’s like, ‘Mom wants to see you’. So I’m walking home, no fear. No worry at all. I saw her face. When she smelled cigarettes on my breath, her face was heartbroken. It was disbelief. It was like, crushed. I remember the look on her face and she was like, ‘You have been smoking.’ It like hit her.”
Cole noted that the experience changed his life and made him aware of the fact that his actions are capable of hurting others.
“The reason why I think that was a life-changing moment, where after that I didn’t need much correction—I became a self-corrector—is because that was the first time I became aware that, ‘Oh, my actions can hurt someone else.’”

The 42-year-old actor, who also deal in car sales, lamented that he has sold cars to people home and abroad but none of his family members have patronized him.
“This message is for my extended and relational family, whoever you are, whatever you people are called – the ones that call themselves siblings of my father and mother, Ogun will k**l you all,” he said.
“I know the number of cars that I have sold to people both abroad and in Nigeria, who bought cars for their siblings.
“Why can’t I find a single person in my family to buy me car in this life till I became older? What kind of useless head do I have?
“I don’t have any useful family member. Ogun will k**l all the elder and younger siblings that have money but refuse to spend it.”

Actor Olumide Oworu declared his intention to run for Surulere Constituency 1 in the House of Assembly on the Labour Party (LP) platform.
Bode Adedayo, however, was listed as the LP candidate for the March 18, 2023, election.
Olumide has now clarified the situation through a statement posted on his social media page. He explained that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) failed to “comply with the subsisting judgment of the Federal High Court delivered on the 2nd of February 2023 in Suit No: FHC/ABJ/CS/2115/2022 wherein INEC was ordered to open her website to allow the labour party to submit the list of her candidates or accept the same manually immediately.”
Olumide stressed that his desire for change in Lagos State was what drove him to run, not for personal benefit.
He urged people to keep striving for a more just and better society and to hold their leaders responsible.
