Nigerian actress and content creator Bukunmi Adeaga Ilori, popularly known as Kiekie, has explained why she chooses to keep her husband off her social media platforms.
Speaking at The Creative Blueprint 2.0, the comic star stressed the importance of setting clear boundaries between personal life and professional branding, especially for celebrities and content creators.

Kiekie noted that she has deliberately created a strong separation between her private life and her public persona.
“I have created a very thick line between what is personal to me as Oluwabukunmi Adeaga Ilori and what is personal to my brand as Kiekie,” she said.
According to her, her brand revolves around being an event and TV host, actor, and comic content creator, which influences the kind of content she shares online.
Explaining why her husband, Tunji Ilori, does not appear in her videos, Kiekie said it simply comes down to content style.
“He is not funny,” she stated.
However, she revealed that her daughter, Nola, occasionally appears in her content because of her natural flair on camera.
“She is made for the camera,” Kiekie added.
Despite this, the actress emphasised that she is careful not to overexpose her child, noting that she only creates content with her during school holidays.
Kiekie also used the opportunity to advise fellow creators to exercise restraint when sharing their personal lives online. She warned against the habit of overusing viral moments, which can lead to oversharing.
“We overmilk viral moments until it becomes annoying. And that is where oversharing comes in,” she said.
Her remarks highlight the growing conversation around privacy and boundaries in the digital age, particularly among public figures.
