There is no smoke without
fire, therefore there must be a reason why Yvonne Okoro’s brand new Mercedes
Benz (new C-Class Facelift edition),
which she has been spotted driving, is rumoured to have been a gift from Tottenham
Hotspurs top striker Emmanuel Adebayor, her alleged lover.
Not long after being linked
to the international superstar, Yvonne started to put on weight and then the
talks shifted to “oh Adebayor has impregnated Yvonne Okoro…they are about to
get married.”
This juicy speculation has
continued for several months but has recently become an issue again.
In a rather touching
interview, Yvonne almost broke down in tears when NEWS-ONE pushed an audio
recorder in her face and asked her to explain the Adebayor connection,
including the alleged pregnancy.
“Yes I have put on weight
but I don’t think am pregnant. I am not pregnant. I don’t know why people come
out with such lies,” Yvonne said, sounding downhearted.
“At first, I thought it was
just a joke. My friends in the United State of America, UK and other countries
called to ask me about it. I told them to stop joking because I heard similar
rumours in the media some months back about Yvonne Nelson. Now it is me. They
must be joking.”
“It is so so so not true. I
am not pregnant. I guess when you see a pregnant woman, you will notice it. I
don’t know how long that rumour has been going round but I’m not pregnant. I
know Adebayor but he is just a friend. He is not my man. I’m repeating, he is
not my man.”
Yvonne sounded as though the
rumours were spoiling something good in her love life. But she would not go
there and NEWS-ONE pushed further.
“I like to keep that a
secret or probably say no comment. It is up to you to find out whether I’m
dating or not. I don’t want to be the one telling you those things about me.
You guys think we don’t have private lives, but we also have the right to think
they way we want to think. So I reserve that right,” Yvonne added.
The beautiful actress has
been in the news in recent times for various reasons. But the juicy one which
got public attention was her outfit at the last African Movie Academy Awards.
The dress gave a broader view of her boobs which got many, especially African
men, talking.
Yvonne is described as an
award-winning actress. She is a pretty-faced lady of Ghanaian and Nigeria
descent.
She is co-winner of the Best
Actress award at the 2010 Ghana Movie awards. Two years in a row, she was
nominated for the Best Actress in Leading Role and Best Actress in Supporting
Role slots at the Africa Movie Academy Awards (AMAAs).
She holds a Bachelor of Arts
degree from the University of Ghana and has studied Press Civilization, Drama
and Marketing at the Universite' De Nantes in France.
She made her screen debut in
2002 in 'Sticking to the Promise' produced by Nigeria's Theo Akatugba and then
starred in some of the best movies in contemporary times. It is no doubt that
she is loved for her riveting roles in ‘Adams Apples’, ‘4play’, ‘The Return of
Beyonce’, ‘The Game’, ‘Agony Of Christ’, ‘Single Six’ among others. She had her
basic education at Achimota Preparatory School and then at Lincoln Community
School before moving to Faith Montessori. She had her secondary education at
Mfanstiman Girls Senior High School. Yvonne has come a long way and contributed
to the African movie industry.
