“It bothers me, but I haven’t had a conversation with her. Even with the movies I produced, she has never been at the premiers or watched them before,” she revealed.

She added that the issue is so serious that Madam Margaret Gaddy will definitely switch channels if one of her movies appears on a TV station she is watching.

According to Yvonne, her mother and siblings didn't care about her when she was forbidden from filming movies in 2010.

“Even when I get awards, they do not even mind, same with my two siblings. When I was banned in 2010, I was very depressed and wouldn’t even leave my room; they still did not care. They are simply uninterested”.

Yvonne asserted that she thinks her mother's status as a preacher and her sensual roles play a part.
