Teebillz loss of mother reflection
Nigerian talent manager Tunji “Teebillz” Balogun has issued a heartfelt public reflection, acknowledging the emotional fallout from losing his mother and the pain it caused his family and loved ones. According to reports, Teebillz recently shared a message addressed to his children, their mothers, his wider family and close friends, stating: “To my kids, their mothers, my family, and my loved ones… I’m sorry for the hurt I caused.”
The loss of his mother reportedly shook him deeply and brought to the surface years of unaddressed emotional strain. In earlier posts, he had expressed how life hit him hard just when he believed things were under control, noting that he was his mother’s only biological child. He also shared his grief publicly during the burial, writing: “I’ll mourn my way. I won’t apologise for my grief.”
Observers say this moment of self-reflection ties into Teebillz’s broader public journey—having navigated high-profile events in his life including his former marriage to singer Tiwa Savage and fathering a son, Jamil. The earlier apology he extended to media personality Toke Makinwa for comments about her involvement in a different celebrity marital issue may indicate a shift towards greater personal accountability and emotional transparency.
In his message, Teebillz acknowledged that his way of coping and communicating during difficult times may have caused pain to those closest to him. He recognised that his grief, unresolved wounds, and perhaps the public nature of his life have influenced his relationships. While he did not elaborate on the specifics of each hurt, the apology signals a willingness to face his internal struggles and its ripple effects on others.
It remains to be seen how Teebillz and his family will move forward from this moment. For now, his open acknowledgement serves as a reminder that loss and grief often affect not only the person enduring them but the network of loved ones around them.
