My mom once bought me a diamond ring to propose to a lady- Denrele Edun
Media personality, Denrele Edun, who would turn 40 in less than two weeks, has had his sexuality mistaken for long enough. In a recent interview with Saturday Beats, he revealed that his mom was so eager to marry him off that she got him a diamond ring to propose to a lady.
“I am not interested in the institution called marriage. I can say this because I am in control of my decisions. I set my principles, follow my guiding philosophies and do only what I want to do. I have not been lucky with love. I give out a lot of love but I do not get the same measure back. It is very hard to find people who genuinely reciprocate the kind of love I give,” he revealed.

“I know people will question my sexuality because we live in a society where people are constantly under pressure and different forms of discrimination, he continued. Recently, I saw a story claiming that I was in a relationship with a male artiste but I don’t react to such claims any more. I just want to be myself. I will not get married and still be unhappy.
I am currently dating myself. My mother once bought me a diamond ring. She just wanted me to settle down. I have sacrificed a lot to take care of my family. I have been shouldering responsibilities since I was 11 years old.”
Edun also stated that he was sexually active and had once thought of leaving the entertainment industry because of a woman.
He said, “I am very sexually active. In the past, I confused sex with love or affection. But, I am at a point where I can draw the line. I once dated someone that I was ready to give up the entertainment industry for. I was so obsessed with her but she said it would be unfair to take that from me. Now, I have discovered inner happiness and peace of mind because God has used me to break the chains of poverty in my family. I will be hard on myself if I say I am not fulfilled or satisfied”, Edun concluded.
