In a fast-paced industry where bonds rarely last, these Nollywood stars are building something different.
Bisola and Sharon Show How Celebrity Friendships Can Thrive
Everyone wants that one friend who just gets it — the person you can talk to for hours, laugh with for no reason, and trust with your worst days. It’s rare in life, but even more so in Nollywood, where the pace is fast and the competition is fierce. Still, Bisola Aiyeola and Sharon Ooja have found that kind of friendship — one that feels solid, warm, and real.
Their relationship began on the set of the Showmax series “Flawsome,” where what started as a typical work connection turned into something deeper. Since then, they’ve stayed close off-camera — with Bisola even taking the role of the Maid of honour at Sharon’s recent wedding to Ugo Nwoke.
Over time, they’ve been open about how much they value each other and why female friendships matter to them. When they appeared together on “The Nancy Isime Show,” their easy back-and-forth made it obvious: this is more than just a friendship for the cameras.
So what’s their secret? Here’s a look at how their bond works — and how anyone can build something just as strong.
They bring peace, not pressure
Bisola and Sharon often talk about how they’ve created a friendship that feels safe. It’s not about judgment, competition, or comparison — it’s about peace. They’re able to talk about anything without fear, and that kind of openness builds trust. That’s the starting point for any friendship worth having.

They know each other well — and keep showing up
It’s clear that they’ve spent time learning each other. They sometimes finish each other’s sentences, and there’s a rhythm to how they talk and move together. More than that, they support each other fully — not just with words but with presence. Whether it’s a major life event like a wedding, or just showing up after a bad day, they understand what it means to really be there.
They celebrate each other’s wins
Support isn’t passive in their friendship — it’s active. Sharon didn’t just invite Bisola to her wedding; Bisola stood beside her as best woman. That’s one example of many where they’ve made it a point to celebrate each other out loud. They show that real friendship means being present during the highs and the lows.
Faith ties it all together
At the core of their bond is something deeper: faith. They’ve both spoken about how important it is to have friends who not only believe in you but also pray with you, encourage you, and keep you grounded. For them, friendship isn’t just emotional — it’s spiritual. And that kind of foundation can carry you through anything.
In a world where connections often feel fleeting or shallow, Bisola and Sharon offer a reminder that friendship — when done with honesty, effort, and love — can be something steady. It takes work. But it’s worth it.
