- Isabel, the 15-year-old daughter of the renowned 2baba Idibia, has ignited social media with her fiery defense of her parents’ reputation.
- In a viral video clip, she passionately lamented the portrayal of her folks in the reality TV show “Young, Famous and African.”
- With eloquence beyond her years, Isabel articulated her grievances, pointing out the unfair depiction of her parents on screen.
In a digital uprising, Isabel, the spirited teenage daughter of Nigerian power couple Innocent ‘2face’ and Annie Idibia, has taken to the online sphere to decry their portrayal in the Netflix reality TV sensation, “Young, Famous and African.”
In a riveting display of candor, the daughter of the iconic singer went live on social media to confront the prevailing narrative surrounding her parents following their highly scrutinized stint on the television program.
Isabel made it crystal clear that she was utterly dissatisfied with the skewed depiction of her parents.
The 15-year-old pointed out that the portrayal was egregiously inaccurate, lamenting the constant belittlement she faced whenever she stood up to defend her family, with critics dismissively labeling her as nothing more than a naive child.
Isabel emphasized her unique insight into her parents’ lives, stemming from their shared household experience. She underscored the superficiality of netizens’ understanding, noting that their knowledge of her parents was limited to what they gleaned from the internet or social media.
She candidly admitted that she couldn’t alter the entrenched opinions people held about her parents. However, she wished to remind them that they will always remain ignorant about the true story of anything that has ever happened in her family.
In a parting remark, Isabel expressed her disapproval of the portrayal of her parents on “Young, Famous, and African,” denouncing it as an inaccurate and unflattering depiction that failed to capture the essence of who they truly are.
Her words;
“I don’t like the way my parents were portrayed in Young, Famous and African, the way they were portrayed was just so wrong. Whenever I try to back my parents up and say that’s not what happened everyone is like ‘how would you know? You’re just a child’ How would you know? You’re not in my family, your knowledge is based on stuff that you see on Safari, Instagram and social media.
“I know it because I’ve been in the household with my parents. I can’t change everyone’s perspective on social media because they will always think what they want to think but they will never know the actual true story or background of anything that has ever happened in my family or anything that has happened before I was even born. I don’t like the way my parents were portrayed, it wasn’t the best image and it wasn’t completely accurate.”
