In an interview with actor Kunle Afod, Doris opened up about
her hiatus and journey to America, inferring that the decision to leave Nigeria
six years ago was personal.
Simeon attributed her relocation six years ago to her desire
to be closer to her son and his father, filmmaker Daniel Ademinokan, who had
moved to the United States after their divorce.
Despite settling in the US, Simeon expressed nostalgia for
Nigeria, especially its cuisine and the warmth of family and friends. She plans
to visit Nigeria within the next one to two years.
Simeon recounted the challenges she faced in obtaining her visa, including multiple denials and last-minute mishaps. Since moving to America permanently in 2018, Simeon has embraced various jobs, including work as a hairdresser and involvement in youth care programs.
Despite the difficulties of starting afresh, Simeon remains
resilient, citing the necessity of hard work to sustain oneself in the US.
Her journey reflects the sacrifices and perseverance
required in pursuit of a better life abroad.
