FLASHBACK: Why I hide my girlfriend, daughter from social media - Osimhen

Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen has disclosed why he keeps the identity of his girlfriend and daughter away from social media.

Speaking in a 2022 interview with Il Mattino, he said he kept their identity private to protect them from abuse and insults rampant on those online spaces

“There is always someone who is ready to criticize, to pour out hatred, to insult,” Osimhen said. “As long as they do it with me, it’s part of the game, you can even ignore it.

“But I could never accept that someone could use abusive words towards my daughter or any of my family members. I don’t want to suffer these attacks on my affections, that’s why I defend my family’s privacy from the attacks of those who hate and are capable of writing horrible things on social media.

“I keep my private life to myself because it is not available to anyone.”
