Speaking openly, Denrele Edun admitted that he has often been unlucky in love, saying that his partners rarely reciprocated the affection and commitment he offered.

“I have not really been lucky with love. People like us who have so much love to give to the world, we don’t really get it back in return. So, I have found it in different people and places, and I have realised that let me just love myself at this point,” he said.
