Damson Idris, the British‑Nigerian star taking the acting world by storm, has dropped any pretense he’s unapologetically a “mummy’s boy.” In a heartfelt chat with KISS FM London, the 33‑year‑old revealed he no longer feels embarrassed by the label he once shrugged off.
“I am a mummy’s boy. Big time. I am not ashamed to admit it anymore,” Idris confessed, adding that his mum isn’t just his supporter she’s his inspiration. “That woman is the reason why I exist. She is my biggest fan and I’m her biggest fan,” he shared, making it clear his success is deeply rooted in honoring her love and sacrifices .
Drawing a parallel with his character Joshua, who strives to make his mother proud, Idris said he aims to “win a championship” in life, too—driven by his mother’s influence .
Fans are swooning at Idris’s genuine affection and down‑to‑earth humility qualities that shine off‑screen just as bright as they do in his on‑screen performances.
