Last month, Kunle caused drama on the internet with his ‘inappropriate’ dance moves with his daughter, Eyiyemi, at the premiere of his long-awaited series, Anikulapo: The Rise of the Spectre.
Videos from the premiere afterparty capture Kunle Afolayan dancing with his first daughter, one of the major cast members in the Anikulapo series.
The dance step, which is a common one among lovers, grabbed the eye of netizens, who lectured him for doing such with his blood. See the video here.
Reacting to it, Kunle Afolayan shared a video of him listening to Phyno’s song, ‘Do I’, indirectly meaning that he doesn’t care about the backlash.
He declared that he was a king and the child of the most high, so his critics can only try. In all, love surpasses everything.
His daughter, Eyiyemi Afolayan, who was unbothered, re-echoed his words.
It was reported last year that Kunle Afolayan had explained why he cast his daughter, Eyiyemi Afolayan, as Princess Omowunmi in his release, Anikulapo.
Kunle Afolayan, who posted a short video clip of his daughter and himself on his verified Instagram handle, said the role required somebody beautiful, and his daughter is definitely beautiful. He added that the youngster is also a good singer as well as a natural at acting.
Eyiyemi is Kunle Afolayan’s first child, and she made her debut appearance as an actor on the set of Anikulapo.
