Why I Want To Be Back On Screen—Saheed Balogun's Ex Lover Funke Adesiyan

Curvy actress, Funke Adesiyan, has not been featuring in films for a while. The Nollywood Yoruba actress, who came to limelight when she was romantically linked with Faithia Balogun’s estranged husband, Saheed, is also an enthusiastic traveller. She jets from one country to another. Though the affair with Saheed hit the rocks, Funke moved on, relocated to Ibadan, contested for a seat in the Oyo State House of Assembly in 2015, and lost. She is still single. Earlier in the year, Funke declared her stance on marriage—it’s a sham. She said, “I never believed in this sham called marriage. I rather appreciate two lovers appreciating one another without any imprisonment.” After Saheed, she has not been seen stepping out with any guy. There was a time she was piling up pounds of flesh and getting bigger in shape but she started work on her figure and now splashes her new looks on her Instagram handle. Lately, she posted on IG why she has not been featuring in films. According to her, she needed to face her business. She said, “In 4 years, I have not appeared in a film. I have concentrated on my other businesses God has blessed me with. Acting is a hobby for me not a business. Many people have wondered the business I do. My people I have learnt in very hard ways that “ohun ti a ba bo lon niyi” (I need to be discreet) and bi isu eni ba ta anfi owo bo je ni(There is need to keep sealed lips over one’s successes). I appreciate all your messages in my dm. My business is good and 90% of the time I travel, it's for business accompanied by pleasure. I love you guys and your prayers mean so much to me. I appreciate them. I just might take on one or two scripts soon so as to satisfy you guys, my true fans. I loooooooveee you guys. You all rock!!!” (sic)
