Comic actress Helen Paul, is regarded a very versatile
entertainers in Nigeria because of her many paths in the industry.
Some month ago she floated a theatre academy in Lagos, which now
boasts of several students.
In recent interview with The Sun, Helen explained how she met her husband,
who used doughnuts and soft drinks to woo her. She described her husband as
stingy man.
The comedienne said her husband was a friend to the person she was
working for back in the days, who always comes around.
“He was a friend to my boss. While he always saw me as too playful
and jumpy, I saw him as to o stingy. Those day when my boss’ colleagues came
visiting, the always reached out to us when leaving. The gave us money which we
used to buy doughnuts and soft drinks but my husband never gave us anything”.
“On that faithful day, I summoned courage and as he was leaving, I
told him, ‘sir, you don’t buy us anything any time you come but we really like
you. If you can be buying us doughnuts and soft drinks, we would be very
grateful’. He started laughing, so I quickly added, ‘sir, it’s not only me o. My
colleagues are also involved, so please don’t tell our boss’.
“We were so happy I asked for his phone number which
he gave me. And then I gave his number to my friends and we all started calling
to thank him. He realized that we really desired the doughnuts and soft drinks
so whenever he came by, he would give us money for doughnuts and soft drinks”.
He never failed to deliver whenever he showed up and
we never stopped thanking him. And then one day, he took a good look at me and
said ‘baby, I love you’ and the rest is history’, Helen narrated.
