It was a touching and emotional moment that got many people talking.
Despite being divorced for years, Nollywood actor Saidi Balogun showed that compassion can still exist after a marriage ends.
The veteran actor made a quiet but powerful appearance at the wake-keep of the mother of his ex-wife, Faithia Williams.
Faithia had earlier shared the burial plans for her late mother, announcing that the wake-keep would hold on March 6, 2026.
Friends, family members and colleagues from the Nollywood industry gathered to support her during the painful moment.
But one face in the crowd quickly caught attention.
Yes her ex-husband.
In a clip from the event, Saidi Balogun and Faithia Williams were seen sitting side-by-side, quietly mourning her late mother.
No drama, no awkwardness just two people sharing a moment of grief and respect for the woman who meant so much to their family.
For many observers, the scene was both surprising and heart-warming.
After all, their marriage may have ended, but moments like this show that some bonds especially family ties don’t simply disappear.
While the loss was heavy, the presence of Saidi Balogun reminded many that support can come from unexpected places even from someone who once walked the same life path with you.
