Popular reality TV star and actress Bisola Aiyeola has opened up about how uncontrolled loyalty made her take sides and get involved in fights that weren’t hers.
Speaking in a recent episode of the Dear Ife podcast, the movie star said she used to “inherit” her loved ones, friends and colleagues’ beefs and fights even without hearing from the other person but stopped after someone she inherited their beef with made her an “outsider” after reconciling with the person they were beefing.
Aiyeola said while she doesn’t expect her friends to “inherit” her beefs, she thinks that it’s unfair for them to be friends with her ex or even date him.
“I have been in a situation where I have taken a fight that is not mine. I do inherit my friends’ beef to an extent. I have done that before. Not just for people who are my best friends but also for acquaintances and colleagues. I did it even without hearing from the other person.
“But I have also been in a situation where I inherited someone’s fight, and then they eventually settled, and I became the outsider. So, I told myself it’s not everybody’s fight and beef that I would inherit.
“I don’t expect people to inherit my beef, but if I have an ex-fiancé and my best friend decides to bond with him, we are not friends. I have cut ties with men who were dating and quarrelling with my best friends,” she stated.
