Nollywood actress, Kate Henshaw, clocked plus one on Sunday, 20th July 2025, and Fellow Actor, Jim Iyke took to social media to celebrate her in a very controversial manner
And this doesn’t sit too well with actor Gideon Okeke, who has now called out Jim Iyke over it
In the lengthy post, the nollywood bad boy opened up about their long history together — from how she supported him during his early career struggles, to how he once had strong feelings for her that went beyond friendship.
He recalled how she would give him heads-up at auditions, sometimes slip money into his hands for food and transport, and how she always looked out for him. But in his words, “you knew all that time I wanted to hit that.”

He also spoke about how their relationship changed when he became overwhelmed by fame and made bad choices, saying that by the time something finally happened between them, he was too “wild and restless” to handle it.

Jim Iyke also referenced her impact on beauty standards, saying many young women try to keep up with her looks but can’t, because “it’s a Kate Henshaw world.”
He ended the post by calling her “a phenomenal creature” and “a force of nature,” writing, “F**k you Kate… your wild boy loves you.”

Meanwhile, while many online have hailed the message as deeply rooted in poetry, and even Kate Henshaw acknowledging it
Gideon Okeke on the other hand feels it’s childish and disrespectful
Taking to his social media account to react to the message, Okeke wrote and we quote;
”Somebody take a look at this motherf*kka over here. It’s the narcissistic effrontery for me. Such a bone head. I wonder who puts these people in check. It’s this kind of rubbish behavior that people condone, that gives the others people balls to be the actual Pr!cks they are in real life. Small boy talks anyhow in public. Turn”
We still don’t understand however why Gideon Okeke is reacting this way
many believe that if the recipient of the Birthday message doesn’t have an issue, then Okeke shouldn’t be the one crying wolf.
What’s your take on this?
