Nollywood actress, Doris Simeon has spoken out about her challenging custody battle with her ex-husband, Daniel Ademinokan
In an interview with Biola Bayo on her show ‘Talk to B’, Doris shared her story, revealing the emotional toll of being separated from her son, who was just 4 years old when Daniel took him to the US.
Doris recalled that the last time she was able to mother her son was when he was just 3 years old.
Doris acknowledged that both she and Daniel had their faults in the situation, but the pain of being denied the opportunity to mother her child has been the most difficult part for her.
She shared how Daniel took their son without her consent and how communication with her son became increasingly difficult.
In her words:
“I might have had my fault, he also had his fault. That’s why I said I didn’t feel anything when they got married, but the only thing is that he didn’t allow me to mother my child. That’s the only painful part.
He took my son without my consent, he was just 4 years old when he came to the US. He was 3 when I mothered my child last. I was calling, but he wouldn’t pick up, and when he picked up, he would tell me he would call me back as he was busy, and for another 3 to 4 months, I wouldn’t get through.
I was frustrated and depressed, but I can never show that because I knew the family I came from as my parents told us to be strong, no matter what you’re going through in life. I just went for a movie premiere and someone told me I am not here to see my son. That was how they took us to court”.
