Why I Don’t Discuss My Relationships With Friends — Nigerian Actress, Lilian Afegbai Opens Up (Video)

Lilian Afegbai, the popular Nollywood actress, has revealed that she keeps her relationships and personal life entirely private, even from her closest friends.

Speaking on Unfiltered and Extra Spicy, the actress said she is naturally secretive and does not feel the need to share intimate details with anyone.

“In real life, I do not discuss my relationship or my private life with my friends.

"I am a very secretive person, and I do not care if you say I am not trustworthy, but I will not discuss my personal life with you,” she said.

Lilian added that many people misunderstand her because of the number of friends she has.

“People assume because I have plenty of friends, they think I am close to everybody. I am not like that at all,” she explained.

When asked what shaped her guarded personality, the actress pointed to childhood experiences.

“I just have serious trust issues from childhood trauma. I am even tackling it now by seeing a therapist, and I am still a work in progress,” she added.
