“I’m sorry if I shattered your perception of love; My life is not an animation.” — Ireti Doyle
We love love stories and that’s why we go and watch Cinderella, that’s why we go and watch over and over again. Twenty remix, we keep going. The Sound of Music you know all of that and people like me grew up watching two of you do things. People have seen this beautiful picture for years and suddenly they don’t see it anymore. So, first there is a dissonance but more importantly, I think that people leave their lives vicariously through celebrities. So, when that happens “you remember when Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt broke up and Oprah said how are we going to drink tea? I think that’s the fascination.
Ireti Doyle: It’s such a shame because my life is not an animation. I’m sorry if I contributed to shattering your image of love and the perfect couple. But my life is not an animation and I cannot sacrifice my life at the altar of your imagination or fantasy. So, if I hurt anybody I’m sorry but I had to choose me.
