His caption read, “It is with the heaviest of hearts that I’d like to make public the passing of my beloved mum ISIOMA PHEBIAN IYELE on the 5th of November 2024. I’m doing this so I can properly start my grief and also because I currently lack the strength or capacity (mentally and finance-wise) to handle this situation. Pls pray for my siblings and I. Pls support us in all the ways you can.”
Hermes, who was on a work trip when he got the heartbreaking news, admitted he was shaken and struggling to cope with both his duties and the weight of his grief.
In a follow-up note, he appealed for patience from his fans, saying, “I’m currently on a work trip and got the news in transit. I’m trying as much as I can to function in the regard of duty that has brought me here whilst trying to do my part of what needs to be done to see this tragedy through, so pls be patient with me as I won’t be able to respond to calls and texts for the time being. We will start the burial process as soon as I’m back.”
Hermes, who first stole hearts with his unique style and dance skills, now finds himself leaning on his fans in his time of need, showing a new side to the once-energetic reality star.
Fans and fellow celebrities have since flooded his page with condolences and words of support.
