Speaking in an interview with the magazine, Akande attributed motivation and determination as elements that fueled her ability to shed all her baby weight and her return into the movie industry.

When asked about how she shed the postpartum weight and fitting into the media’s idea of what a TV star should look like; the actress said:“it’s about what rocks your boat.”

"But don’t let anyone dictate for you who you should be; skinny doesn’t mean beautiful," she said.
