Ex-BBN Housemate, Tboss Confirms She Just Had A Baby, Explains Why She Chose To Walk The Path To Motherhood In Silence
Former big brother Naija housemate, Tokunbo Idowu aka Tboss has finally admitted she is a mum for the first time. The 35-year-old reality TV star let tongues wag for months without addressing speculations that she was pregnant but now the proud mum says she had her reasons for keeping mum on her journey to motherhood.
In a quite lengthy post on Instagram, Tboss said she chose to work the journey to motherhood in silence because she wanted to enjoy the journey, savor every moment, as well as be attuned to what was happening to her body as her baby grew in it.
She described pregnancy as a rollercoaster ride and that as much as she was ecstatic, it took its toll. While admitting, it was incredibly hard to keep such joyous news as her pregnancy to herself, she said it was a necessity going by how negative people can be.

What is it about our Generation that’s Always so eager to post up our private lives on Social Media?
We get Good news- SM, Not so good news- SM, Someone offends us, someone owes us money, breakups, new home, new car, new shoes, fake designer shoes, borrowed stuff- There’s Absolutely No Mystery anymore. You wanna know about a person? Just look up their SM pages & you’d get a pretty close picture of whom you’re dealing with.
I agree I’m not exactly social media compliant but I’m also guilty of sometimes putting more than I ought to have out there thereby subjecting myself to being misinterpreted, misquoted, misunderstood & highly misjudged.And that’s why it was extremely difficult for me to keep my pregnancy all to myself.
I mean it was without a doubt The Best news I have ever had & God knows I wanted to shout it out so as to be heard to the ends of the earth BUT I had to …
Not because I was ashamed or nothing of the sort. Hey, I’m a Grown woman let’s be Real.I was Afraid. I was afraid of exposing My best news to the negativity of little & sad minded people of which unfortunately happen to be a lot… I wanted to enjoy this journey, savor every little moment, understand what was happening to me, my body, keep my sanity for my good & the good of my unborn child.
Pregnancy is indeed a roller coaster ride and as Ecstatic as I was, it really hit me.My friends all knew- if you didn’t oh well- maybe that’s your cue. I went shopping & out a lot & took lots of photos with my beautiful fans – Selfies Only of course & never felt the need to cover up or hide anything- And why should I?
Do you know the struggle a lot of women go through to get what I have? A Free Gift from God! And you think at 35 I ought to feel some type of way because someone has an unsolicited opinion about me? Ha Ha Ha… Silence is NOT denial.
My silence was just that: Silence- until I was ready to speak about it.
