Nigerian comedienne and actress, Helen Paul, has recounted how her former boss tried to discourage her husband from dating her years ago.
Helen, who is married to her husband, Femi Bamisile, with 3 sons and a daughter, made this disclosure during a recent interview on the ‘Honest Bunch’ podcast.
According to her, her boss spoke about her in a condescending manner to her husband, who was her then lover, and insinuated that she wasn’t good enough for him because he was a lawyer.
Her words, “My boss called my husband to say ‘Femi, is it that kind of Helen you want to date? You’re more than this.’
“And he said, ‘No, if you want to just enjoy yourself with her, it’s OK o.'”
She continued: “I took Femi to my own office then in TVC. My HR looked at Femi and said, ‘Look at how clean you are, a lawyer, why the choice of Helen?'”
