Actresses Genevieve Nnaji and Rita Dominic have warmed hearts online after a video of them sharing a moment at Rita’s 50th birthday party in London went viral.
In the clip, Rita is seen sitting on Genevieve’s lap as the Lionheart star holds her closely and affectionately. The tender moment between the long-time friends has sparked admiration from fans, who praised their bond and elegance.
Some fans described the moment as “a heartwarming display of sisterhood’s glow,” noting that the duo lit up the celebration with their presence.
The intimate birthday gathering was held on Saturday and attended by close friends, and colleagues in the movie industry.
Genevieve’s appearance came as a pleasant surprise to many, as she has kept a low profile in recent years.
Genevieve and Rita, both born in Mbaise, Imo State, are two of Nollywood’s most respected stars. Rita turned 50 on July 12 while Genevieve is 46.
Their friendship dates back to the early 2000s, with both actresses having starred in several hit films including Girls Cot and The Meeting.
Rita Dominic is married to media entrepreneur Fidelis Anosike.
Genevieve, on the other hand, has largely stayed out of the spotlight since her 2018 directorial debut Lionheart, which made history as Nigeria’s first Netflix original and Oscar submission.
