Popular comedienne, Helen Paul better known as Tatafo, opened up to SUN in a recent interview on how her husband wooed her.
Helen said she met her hubby who’s a lawyer, Mr Bamisile, through her former boss.
In her words, “I met him through my boss where I was formerly working.He was a friend to my boss. While he always saw me as too playful and jumpy, I saw him as too stingy,”
Helen referred to her hubby as a stingy man who didn’t like giving her and her friends money for Doughnuts and drinks.
Helen told Sun that “Those days when my boss’ colleagues came visiting, they always reached out to us when leaving. They gave us money which we used to buy doughnuts and soft drinks but my husband never gave us anything.
“He would just wave his hand and say ‘bye bye guys, take care of yourselves’,” she says, mimicking a stern and unfriendly male voice, adding, “So we always saw him as a selfish lawyer.”
The comedienne said she then decided to burst her hubby’s bubble by telling him that she and her friends needed money for doughnuts.
“On that fateful day, I summoned courage and as he was leaving, I told him, ‘sir, you don’t buy us anything any time you come but we really like you. If you can be buying us doughnuts and soft drinks, we would be very grateful’. He started laughing, so I quickly added, ‘sir, it’s not only me o. My colleagues are also involved, so please don’t tell our boss”
Then one day, the lawyer wooed her after buying enough doughnuts and drinks.
Helen said “We were so happy I asked for his phone number which he gave me. And then I gave his number to my friends and we all started calling to thank him. He realised that we really desired the doughnuts and soft drinks so whenever he came by, he would give us money for doughnuts and soft drinks. He never failed to deliver whenever he showed up and we never stopped thanking him. And then one day, he took a good look at me and said ‘baby, I love you’ and the rest is history.”
We can say Helen’s love is built on Doughnuts and drinks.
