Over the years, Funke and Eniola have grown from being colleagues to being best friends and sisters. The friendship between the two is one that many find admirable.

Recently, when Eniola Badmus broke down at a public event over her inability to have children, Funke had prayed for her to have kids. She had also vowed to throw a big part in her children’s naming ceremony.

Recall that in 2023, rumors of bad blood between the two made rounds after Eniola Badmus shunned Funke Akindele’s movie premiere. Even though she helped in putting up a promotional post for the movie, she ensured she was absent from the movie premiere to pay back Funke Akindele for the times she shunned her events too.

In August, Eniola Badmus shut down the rumours as she sweetly celebrated Funke on her 46th birthday. Funke reacted to it by poking fun at her as she referred to her as the First Daughter of Nigeria.

Reciprocating the love, Funke had sweetly celebrated her on her birthday. She gushed over Eniola Badmus’ transformation body, and called her by her nickname, Badoskyy, as she noted how it is a thing of joy.

Last year, Akindele addressed the news about her strained relationship with Eniola which she blamed on their busy schedule. She said she likes her a lot and revealed the reasons she loves Badmus.

Eniola had also said something similar in an Instagram post about their friendship. She had shared a photo of the filmmaker accompanied by a lengthy post on why they had not been goofing as usual.
