Speaking in a recent interview with TVC, Bello said:

“I don’t think I’ve any regrets in life. One of the biggest things I used to think was a regret was leaving my ex-husband and children in the U.S and coming to Nigeria and losing all of that.

“Years later, my children came and we were talking. We always sit and talk. So, I started telling my children about things. And one of my kids, my daughter, told me, which was even more important to me, ‘Mummy, I’m so glad you did what you did. Because seeing you going to get your dream, it made me realised that I should go get it. At your age, you can do this? That means I can do it, there’s no limitation.’

“That [divorce] used to be my regret but look at how God turned it around. So, it’s no longer a regret.”
