Media personality and crossdresser, Denrele Edun, has revealed how he suffered a stroke on his face.

According to him, his left eye closed and his face shifted because of the stroke. He disclosed he had to cover his face with his hairstyles.

Describing his health challenge further, Denrele Edun said that he couldn’t breathe well, and also could not see clearly because his eye was automatically closed, his right leg went numb, and his front hair also went off.

The entertainer added that when he was battling with the stroke, a friend called him for a movie shoot but because he didn’t want sympathy or share his sickness, he chose to go.

According to him, “I was very sick at the time, so I had just come out of having a stroke on half of my face. It had never happened before but it didn’t stop or deter me from working. My face was droopy, I was left-handed, so on the right side. Every time I had to drink water, it would pour out, one eye was wide open, I couldn’t hear; and I couldn’t breathe. All my hairstyles covered that side so you can never tell.

“And then, getting out of that, another attack came from nowhere. On this one, I couldn’t walk; my right leg was dysfunctional, and I lost half of my hair. My friend asked me to make a cameo in her movie during that period and I didn’t like pity so I couldn’t tell her that I was sick and unable to perform well.”
