Additionally, Laide Bakare noticed that her persona was sometimes overlooked in favour of her work as an actress. Furthermore, she said:
“As an actress and filmmaker, my primary challenge has to do with navigating relationships and finding true love. Sometimes, people are attracted to my status and my profession, rather than the essence of who I am. Distinguishing genuine connections from those based on fame then becomes a delicate task.”
