Actor and filmmaker Lateef Adedimeji has opened up about his journey to success and marital life in an interview with Chude Jideonwo.
Lateef recalled how a mentor in the Yoruba movie industry doubted his potential, predicting he would fail within a year.
However, Lateef confidently asked for two years to prove himself.
He also shared the romantic story of how he proposed to his wife, Bimpe over the phone and how she has been a rock for him despite facing online trolls and hurtful comments, including being called barren.
Lateef expressed gratitude for his wife’s support, particularly during the challenging time when he was working on his project, Lisabi.
He said despite facing disappointment from those who promised to support him, his wife’s encouragement helped boost his confidence.
“Someone once told me in the Yoruba movie industry that he gave me one year to see what I would become. I told him to give me two years and he will see what I will become.
“My wife and I have received a lot of trolls. Recently, someone called her barren on social media. She would always show it to me and would say they would be all right.
“I just called her one morning and asked if she would marry me and she said Yes.
“When I wanted to do my first big screen job, Lisabi, I realiyzed that everybody that I felt would stand by me was not there; there was nobody,” he said.
