Fame Nearly Broke Me!” – Actress Ireti Doyle Reveals The Real Reason She Fled Social Media

Veteran Nollywood actress Ireti Doyle has revealed that the growing negativity and toxicity on social media prompted her recent decision to take a break from online platforms.

The award-winning actress, who had been absent from Instagram for over a month, made a subtle return on Thursday, October 9, 2025, sharing a heartfelt message about her time away.

In her post, Doyle explained that she needed to step back from the digital space to preserve her peace of mind, while also encouraging her fans to prioritize their own mental and emotional well-being.

She wrote:

“I used to wonder what I’d do with myself once I became an ‘empty nester.’ Now I know. Had to disappear again… The streets of SM (nay, the world in general) are becoming too toxic for my quiet soul. How have you been? I hope you’re protecting yourself.
Peace. #EmptyNest #AnotherSoloTrip #Abundance #Ease #Flow.”

In a separate development, Nollywood actor Tobi Makinde has announced his engagement to his mystery partner.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Makinde humorously admitted that he purchased a ring that was too big, saying:

“I had only one job — to get a ring that fits perfectly — but I blew it and got a bigger size.”

The actor revealed that he had popped the question a few months ago and expressed his excitement about embarking on the journey of marriage.

Makinde added that he sought God’s guidance before making his decision and declared his deep love for his fiancée.
