Nollywood actor Bolanle Ninalowo faced backlash from a fan after gifting his son a brand-new Corvette sports car for his eighteenth birthday.
The actor shared a video on his Instagram page showing his son, Keyo, admiring and stepping into the luxury car, worth millions.
In the caption, Bolanle revealed the car was a birthday present for his son, adding that while the car is expensive, he remains committed to fulfilling his responsibilities as a father.
“He wrote, “Keyo: Dad this is the whip I want for my 18th birthday
Maka: $1 = N1,670. Abeg, who knows how much $$ will cost in another year?? But he knows daddy always got him thou”.
Taking to his comment section, while many praised him, one of his fans took a swipe at him as he dared him to take a photo of his wife and his kids. This is undoubtedly an indirect way of mocking the actor, who is separated from his wife.
The fan wrote, “Do a video with your wife and your children”.
It is no longer news that Bolanle is separated orm his wife and mother of his two kids. He announced his divorce in September of 2023, revealing that he has finally accepted the reality of the end of the road. Bolanle listed out the several efforts he made to ensure his marriage work, which all proved abortive.
In an interview with TVC, he revealed that he doesn’t consider his ex-wife a mistake in his life, as their relationship was divine.
Following the divorce, Bolanle hinted at finding love again as he begged his fans for some dating tips. He asked for advice on how he could woo his new lady, as he admitted that he had a new wavy feeling, which made his heart tingle. Bolanle further noted how one only has one life to live and he tried to make things work, and now he is ready to move on with his full chest.
It has been alleged that the actor has moved on from his wife with his colleague, Damilola Adegbite, the ex-wife of Chris Attoh. Making his relationship Instagram official, he shared a clip of himself and Damilola holding hands while walking around an undisclosed location.
In a past post, Bolanle urged his fans to hate him now, stating that he has finally found the courage and strength to choose and he has done so. He noted how pain is temporary and he has chosen love, peace, and light.
