The actress revealed that her choice to keep her dating life discreet is because disclosing it to the press would make the relationship end quickly.

Nollywood actress, Eniola Badmus, has opened up on why she prefers to keep gists concerning her romantic relationship as discreet as possible.

Badmus, in an interview published by Encomium Magazine on June 1, 2016, said the harm caused by the press and social media has encouraged her to maintain silence about her love life.

When questioned about her love life, she said, "Those are the things I don’t like talking about. Let us just talk about my career."

"I don’t believe in talking about personal issues to the press and social media. They won’t make such relationship last."

On her take regarding celebrities and the social media, the comic actress commented that she will rather not respond to opinions made online about her by the fans no matter how hurtful they are.

According to her, fans are generally not loyal to any particular celebrity. They can make or break any public figure.

"Nigerians in the disapora do not really have loyal fans. My fans are other celebrities’ fans. We don’t have fans that wouldn’t move out from you. So, I don’t reply them."

"I am a comic person. I don’t reply them. Nothing gets to me. There are some comments that get to me but I don’t reply."

"I am not about that. They are the same set of people that will praise me tomorrow. It is better to ignore such comments."

Eniola Badmus has grown her career to a level worthy of envy, with various brands rewarding her success with endorsement deals.
