During the interview, Kate Henshaw admitted she still does not fully understand what may have caused the distance between them.

According to her, there may have been some level of mistrust, but she remains unsure.

“We grew apart. Maybe she had some kind of mistrust."

Legit.ng earlier reported that Kate Henshaw ignited conversations around surrogacy in Nigeria as she shared her concerns.

During a recent interview with News Central, the award-winning actress highlighted how some women choose surrogacy despite having no medical necessity for it, citing businesswoman Ifedayo Agroro, whose video on surrogacy recently trended on social media.

“I watched Ife's video and I was wondering, why?” She asked. “She's healthy and has nothing wrong with her. Why does she think she can?"

❝We grew apart. Maybe she had some kind of mistrust about me... I don't know what happened. I don't know what came over her.❞
