Bimbo Thomas says she regrets sending nude photos to ex-lover


Actress Bimbo Thomas granted an interview recently to The
Nollywood Reporter, where she admitted sending nude photos to a
married ex-lover. Bimbo says it’s one the big mistakes of her life.
“Yes, I have been in love before and I have been involved in
relationships I thought was love but wasn’t. There was this
relationship I thought would lead to the altar. I was committed to it
and the guy was committed too but it still didn’t work out. We are
still friends though. When I came out of that relationship, I didn’t
want to date again. I just wanted to be left alone but you know
women and love; I found another guy, he was the kind of guy one
will call a gentleman. I fell in love with him; I could do anything for
him. I even made a mistake that still tugs at my conscience till
date; I sent him my nude photos.
Looking back now, it was one mistake too many especially when I
realized the guy was deceiving me as he was married with children.
I cried and cried! I almost gave up on everything thing but God
kept me.”
On asking why she made such a stupid mistake, she replied, “Yes,
it is a stupid mistake but you know celebrities are humans too. We
hurt, we laugh, we cry, we love, we grief and do everything every
other human being does. We fall in love and make mistakes.
Though we fall down like the Bible would say, but we can’t stay
down, we get up and keep forging ahead. Many guys that
approach female celebrities have evil intentions.”
Responding to questions on if she will gladly date again, the Omo
Ghetto star said she will but will approach the subject cautiously.
“Dating is now something I dread. I don’t think I will give up on
love but the next guy might pay for the sins of others.” She said
amidst laughter laced with vengeance. We can’t help but pray God
helps the next guy.
Bimbo Thomas, a graduate of creative art from the University of
Lagos, came into the industry a few years ago and after a series
of small roles, became a household name, thanks to “Omo
Ghetto”, a Yoruba movie produced by popular Actress cum
