Nollywood star, Funke Akindele-Bello has opened up on the
reason she keeps her sons’ faces hidden.
The actress in a recent interview on TVC stated that she wants her
children to live their own lives without the public judging them by the
standard of their parents.
She maintained that when they become adults they can decide to show
their faces to the world but as children, she would rather keep their faces
hidden and protected.
She said: “Don’t you see my home? Don’t you see my husband? Don’t you
see the back of my children? How is that one private? The children’s face is
that what you are trying to say? No.
“When they are old enough, they should show their faces if they want to.
But for now, I don’t want them to show their faces. I want them to have their
lives and enjoy them.
“Their dad and I are already in the public eye. They are children, don’t
forget. They are children They are vulnerable so you have to just keep them
away, keep them safe.
“Let them go to school, let them enjoy their lives without ‘Ah! that’s
Jenifa’s son. That’s JJC’s son. Ah see his leg, see his face.’ Leave them
private!”
