Singer Doyinsola - “I suffered over 3 miscarriages in my 6 years of marriage” Posted: 05 Nov 2019 02:30 AM PST Delectable singer, Doyinsola who recently welcomed her first child with her husband Mr Akinola in the United States after 6 years of marriage, has recounted the challenges she encountered. Doyinsola revealed that she suffered miscarriages over three times and had to go in for different tests, surgeries and also took so much drugs. She wrote; "Meet the Akinola's. My Beautiful Family of 3. Fun fact: Being married for 6years long before my music career started off professionally. Just didn't feel the need to play the married woman card. Don't ask me why, we just wanted to keep it that way ??This young man came along and I can't but share my joy with you. My Testimony: I love babies so much and people around can attest to that. I wanted to have my own babies like normal couples do. Fortunately for us, without even trying I got pregnant with my first a month after my wedding and trust me I was super excited and looking forward to having the baby. Life happened and it ended in a miscarriage. Battled recurrent miscarriages ever since then, not once, not twice, not thrice?? Took different tests, surgeries, lots of drugs" I hate swallowing pills but it soon became my best friend ", tried different hospitals and results always come back good. Hence the confusion and anxiety. At this point we decided to seek other means of parenting method precisely IVF. After making some payments we were supposed to go back for some tests to get started but in the process of waiting. I got pregnant again and this time I carried my pregnancy to full term with a healthy and most beautiful human have ever seen to show for it. Lesson: Trust God's process cos his timing is best for us. Forget all the packaging,I became really closer to my God and put all my trust in Him. People will come up with advises of all kinds. Make up your mind, it's either God or nothing. Be nice to everyone around you cos you don't have an idea of what battle they are fighting. Prophecy positive things into your life always. Tell God what you want. Do not give in to fear atall. Stop asking irrelevant and sensitive questions like why are you not pregnant? If you care so much, mention them to God in your prayers. You might want to bury yourself with work when you're down. I do that a lot and it helps. Get busy like really busy. Be happy for people not jealous, so that your day of joy too can come. I started to meditate on this bible verse alot Ezekiel12vs28 Marry your best friend, you might not appreciate it until you're faced with challenges. TBC…" | ||||||||||||
Thelma speaks on life after the reality show and her dreams of being on Jenifa’s Diary Posted: 05 Nov 2019 02:00 AM PST Big Brother Naija Season 4 housemate, Thelma, spoke to LITV about life outside the Big Brother house, what it's been like, and how she's making the most of her new-found fame. Speaking to LITV's On Air host, Dami Dawson, Thelma said people now recognize her when she's seen in public, something she couldn't boast of before she went for the reality show. She added that she's grateful for the platform the show gave her. "Life is smooth outside the house," she said. Thelma mentioned that she was supposed to audition for Big Brother season 2 in 2017 but she lost her brother during that period, so she had to shelve that dream. However, she said she was convinced that she will "make it" if she auditions. She said: "Something in me kept on telling me that I'll make it, so I said, 'fine, let me just give it a trial." She considered trying again in 2018 but her attention was divided because she was a student of Imo State University, studying "Medical Lab Science". She ended up trying in 2019 and made it into the house. Speaking of her excitement at being informed that she will be one of the housemates for the Big Brother Naija Pepper Dem edition, Thelma said she couldn't sleep the night she was informed that she had been chosen as a housemate. "It's an awesome experience that everybody will really want to have. Seriously," she said. Speaking of her dreams and goals, Thelma said the even before she went to the Big Brother house, she always wanted to act in a movie. She said she got two roles but because of her schedule and schoolwork, she let it go. However, she adds that acting remains her passion and it will be a "dream come true" if she gets an acting role. When asked why she chose to study Medical Lab Science and not Theatre Art since that's her passion, Thelma said: "I already got admission in Imo State University and the course Medical Lab Science. But even in my class, my coursemates, they'll be like,'Thelma, this is a wrong department for you. You're supposed to be in Art.' And different people, they kept on saying it, because of the way I relate to people. Like, anywhere I am, people get to notice me. Like, I love everything comic. I think I have such things in me already. Even without much talk, I display lots of things. "They'll be like, 'Thelma, this department is not for you.' Sometimes, they'll even be like, "Thelma, are you sure you're the one that filled your JAMB form?' "So, that acting of a thing, I don't mind o. I can still keep my certificate somewhere but you see that acting, it's something I really have passion for and I'm really really longing for it." When asked which filmmaker she'll love to work with, she said: "You see Funke Akindele? Jenifa's Diary? you see that series? I don't miss it. "Jenifa's Diary, that's number one, and then any other one. Like, I love comic reliefs: Jenifas Diary, (My) Flatmates, The Johnsons… These are the series I really want. Series, especially. I love them." She also spoke about considering being in a beauty pageant. She said all through her five years in University, people kept encouraging her to consider it and she "only gave it a trial once" but she "didn't really see it as something I wanted to do." "Pageantry, right from time, is not something I really want to go into. This acting of a thing is what I want." Watch the rest of the interview below; | ||||||||||||
