Nollywood actor Temisan Emmanuel Ahwieh, popularly known as Taymesan, has shared that he experienced profound rejection during his teenage years.
In his latest episode of his podcast, Tea With Tay, he explained that his parents, who were teenagers when he was born, separated, and he was primarily raised by his grandmother. Even when his father reentered his life at one point, he felt rejected when his father prioritized his new wife and family over him.
Taymesan said, “My dad and mum were teenage lovers. They had me early. So, my granny had to raise me.
“My dad tried at some point. But the only time that he chose me, somebody got in the way. His new wife.
“ I felt rejection on the highest level. I felt that my dad chose his wife over me and has chosen her till today. And his new family.”
He said initially he was striving to be successful to prove those who rejected him wrong but after hitting stardom, he realised that “so much damage has been done. So, I started asking God to heal me”.
