“A DJ’s wife told my designer not to allow me touch her kids because she thought I had HIV” – Denrele Edun

Popular media personality, Denrele Edun has revealed the details of a terrible incident involving him and the wife of a well-known DJ.

Denrele Edun described the upsetting experience in a lengthy Instagram post as he counted down to celebrating three decades in the entertainment industry.

He highlighted how the DJ’s wife believed he had HIV because of his skinny appearance, so she forbade his designer from styling him and from allowing him to be around her children.

He wrote;

“Denrele, you’re a SAFE SPACE.
A place that’s practically non-existent in this cràzy industry of ours, but you represent that and MORE”, @kachioffiah said to me whilst on the Arise 360 Live Show yesterday.

Kachi is just the Iceberg destroying all Titanics!
With a good Ear, refinement, and a degree of Performance perfection that is enviable, she sure made my time on @arisenewsofficial @arisetvafrica worth every second!

Now, everyone look at ME!
I’m adding WEIGHT and it’s so beautiful to see!
For the past 4 Decades, I’ve been Skinny and sometimes labeled Anorexic, Malnourished, and even HIV Positive!

Yes, you read the last part well.

One famous DJ’s wife (at the time) told my favorite Designer not to style me in any outfits anymore or even allow me to touch her kids as it was evident I had HIV;
“Can’t you see how Skinny he is? He looks so Diseased”, the jobless wife spluttered in a voice note.
I listened and smiled.

So here’s to adding WEIGHT in all the right places; My 27-inch waist is now 30!
Who knew this day would ever come?

Gotta do something about my neck though…
E don full!

P.S:
Come May 2024, I shalt be marking 30 Years in the Showbiz Industry.
3 UNFUCKWITABLE DECADES!

I DON TEYYYYYYYY OOOOOOO!
I’m truly a Story waiting to be told!

Started in 1993 but professionally got my major break in 1994! This time, I’m going HARD on Celebrating myself!
Prepare to be sick of ME! And to all the youngsters outchea seeking direction, now is the time;
DENRELE has something in store for everyone!”
