The Seun Egbegbe alleged iPhone theft saga that took the entertainment industry by storm might have died down over the weeks, but it was more Toyin Aimakhu’s media trial than this.
The headlines were all screaming “Toyin Aimakhu’s Ex, Seun Egbegbe…” Suddenly, it was a question of ‘how come she was with a guy like that in the first place?’ It didn’t seem to matter whether it was still an ‘alleged’ crime or that the accused belonged in her past. Her name kept making the headlines. And as far as this was going on, the embarrassment caused by the tag remained. Celeb Police had wondered how she would pull off the PR required to get the dirt off her shoulders.
All that seem to have changed now. Against all odds, Toyin has turned the pain of being Seun Egbegbe’s ex to gain. Prior to the scandal, her social media follower base was way less than what her popularity should command. Today, it’s a different story as the vivacious actress has finally hit the coveted million mark.
What worked for Toyin? Is it her outright refusal to comment on the saga? Is it a function of how she pours her whole energy into her new projects? Whatever the conclusion, Toyin Aimakhu has come out of the image laundry a winner.
