I Cried The First Day I Held My Baby –Yemi Blaq

Despite being perceived a ‘strong’ man with his deep and intimidating voice, one would not easily know that actor Yemi Blaq is a mushy person. In a chat with Saturday Beats, he revealed that he could not hold back tears the first day he carried his baby.

Speaking with Saturday Beats, he said witnessing the birth of his son was a beautiful experience for him.

He stated, “One of the happiest days of my life was when my son came to this world. It was a beautiful experience and I actually cried when he was delivered and I was asked to carry him.”

Though he is married, the actor said marriage had not changed the way he relates with female fans.

He explained, “I’m still the same person despite marriage; I am just more careful because I am not the only one my actions affect now; it affects other people.  I see my wife as my friend and I care about her a lot.

“I don’t think being married should affect your followership as people like you for your talent. There might be some people who will stop relating with you once you are married, but they are in the minority.”

Yemi Blaq also revealed plans to do music this year, saying, “I just finished recording a song I wrote in 2006. I don’t believe there is an expiry date for talent and music. Though I wrote the song years ago, I feel the time is right to put it out. I just want to share my talent with the world and it will speak for itself.”
