Doris Simeon Reveals Heartbreak Over Custody Battle with Ex-Husband
Nigerian actress Doris Simeon has shared the pain and struggles of her ongoing custody battle with ex-husband Daniel Ademinokan. In an interview on “Talk to B” with Biola Bayo, Doris disclosed that Daniel took their son to the United States without her consent when he was only four years old. She shared that the last time she was able to play an active role in her son’s life was when he was three, which left a lasting void in her heart.
Doris explained that her attempts to contact her son were often met with silence or unavailability. She recalled that whenever she called, Daniel would say he was too busy or promise to return her calls, which would often result in long months of no communication. These prolonged separations from her son led to immense frustration and depression for Doris, who had to mask her emotions. Growing up in a family that valued resilience, she shared how her parents taught her to remain strong even in the face of difficult circumstances, which helped her cope despite the emotional toll.
Reflecting on her past relationship with Daniel, Doris acknowledged that they both had their faults but emphasized that her only real grievance was his denial of her role as a mother. She explained that she harbored no ill feelings about his subsequent marriage but struggled deeply with the loss of her connection to her child, a loss that continues to weigh on her to this day.
The actress also described the surreal experience of being told by a friend at a movie premiere that her presence should be focused on reconnecting with her son. It was then that Doris realized the emotional isolation she felt from her child and the impact it had on her life. The separation eventually led them to court, highlighting the extent of the rift and the legal battles that ensued.
Doris’s story has touched many, with fans expressing sympathy and support for her. Her journey as a mother facing such challenges sheds light on the complex nature of custody issues and the impact they can have on parents who strive to maintain a bond with their children.
