Everybody loves fairy tales, which is why Olajumoke’s story is so compelling. In just over a year, she has experienced a drastic turn in her life as she transformed from poor and struggling bread seller to a super model and huge media personality. Her rise has started with only one picture, on which she has photo bombed Tinie Tempah during his photo shoot with TY Bello. After this picture, her life has never been the same, and in her latest interview with BBC, Olajumoke shares how she feels about this change in her life, her past, present and future experiences.

While talking about her new career and new life, Olajumoke seems really thankful to be in the place she is right now, but she says that it was difficult for her to get used to such a lifestyle. Yet, with a lot of hard work and with the help from lots of professionals, who had taught her, she was able to get to fame and to finally be able to properly provide for her family and her children.

When the former bread seller talked about her past, she said she didn’t miss her job (who would, really), but she will never forget the people that worked beside her. Hard, tiresome work has always brought people together, besides, Olajumoke clearly can sympathize with people in the position she recently was too. That’s why she recently visited her previous workplace and shared with people working there now.

In her latest interview, the celebrity also talked about all the feedback and reactions she has gotten since the start of her career. According to Olajumoke the bread seller, she received a lot of positive and affirming comments, but there have also been a lot of hurtful and hateful messages, especially on social media, like Instagram. Yet, she is thankful for all the support she gets and will continue to work hard like she always did.
