In a conversation on Toke Makinwa’s podcast, the actress said,

“I can’t be in a toxic relationship if you cannot give me that protective energy that allows me to respect you.”

The actress highlighted her desire for genuine love and respect, noting that financial wealth isn’t the sole criterion for a fulfilling relationship.

Expressing her expectations, she reiterated, “I just want someone that would love me. I’m not asking for too much.” She emphasized the need for a partner who earns her respect, asserting, “If you can’t earn my respect, we can’t be together. What’s the point?”
