Isabella Idibia, the eldest daughter of Nigerian music icon 2Baba and his wife, Annie Idibia, has expressed her dissatisfaction with the depiction of her parents in the 2022 South African reality show, ‘Young, Famous and African.’
In the first and second seasons of the reality show, Annie was depicted as a persistently complaining spouse who endures her tumultuous marriage despite her husband, 2Baba, openly stating to other celebrities on the show, in his wife's presence, that “men are predisposed to infidelity.”
In a recent video message shared on her social media platform, Isabella expressed that the portrayal of her parents in the reality show was “highly inaccurate.”
She firmly stated that the depiction wasn’t the “most favorable representation and it wasn’t entirely true.”
She explained, “I strongly believe that the portrayal of my parents in ‘Young, Famous and African’ is fundamentally flawed.
“Every time I attempted to defend my parents by explaining that it didn’t happen that way, I was met with responses like, ‘How could you know? You’re still young.’ How could you know? You’re not part of my family. Your understanding is based solely on what you see on social media.
“I know because I’ve lived with my parents. I can’t alter everyone’s perception on social media because people there tend to believe whatever fits their narrative. But the reality is, they’ll never truly grasp the complete story of my family or anything that occurred before I was even born.
“The portrayal of my parents in ‘Young, Famous and African’ didn’t present them in the most positive light and wasn’t entirely accurate.”
