She stated:

“Unclez. I don’t know you, you woke up and typed ‘OLOMO KAN’ on my page. I don’t understand what you mean, but I want my followers to bless you with a curse… That stardom, you will get, but it will cause you trouble and will not give you rest.”

Wumi Toriola got married in 2018 and welcomed her son, Zion, soon after. In January 2023, she confirmed that her marriage had ended.

Despite the separation, the actress has openly shared that she and her ex-husband maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship. She has also spoken about her desire to have more children someday.

Netizens react to Wumi Toriola's post

Legit.ng compiled the reactions of netizens below:

@officialesther_john:

"Hmmmmm people mama don't mind keep living ur life you are a star"

@aremogemini:

"I cannot stress this enough. Public figures do not stop being human the moment they become visible. They feel insult the same way any unknown face on the street feels it. They bleed in private even when the world expects them to smile in public. Demanding that they absorb cruelty without reacting is not maturity, it is punishment dressed as expectation. A person does not become less deserving of emotion because many people know their name."
