RMD refused to reveal the title of the movie but said he was proud of his job as he gets to meet people.
“Meet my new son @aireyys mike of bbn2019. I love my job. I get to not only meet people but be their friends or father or brother. All through the big brother season my 17 year old daughter was one of those rooting for @aireyys and here I am about to play his dad and begin a new journey. Reveal reveal later. See why I will always remain a cool dad? Imagine my daughter this Christmas back home telling all her friends that she can call @aireyys and speak to him anytime😂. So the question, do we look like father and son?” he said.
Mike recently joined Empire Mates Entertainment (EME), a management and media company co-founded by musician, Banky W.
