Tyler Perry, known director and producer of famous TV shows, is no stranger to the fame. But, when it came to a deeply personal matter, he had chosen to remain discreet.
Rumors had been spreading about Perry, who is 45-year-old, and his girlfriend, Gelila Bekele, decided to expand their family, but Perry had neither authenticate nor declined these speculations.
The setting was the prestigious New York Film Festival’s opening night, a chilly evening in the heart of New York City, where the red carpet was unfurled. Perry, attending the event for his latest film, “Gone Girl,” based on Gillian Flynn’s bestselling book, faced a barrage of reporters waiting to reveal the truth.
In the amid of the camera flashes and the clamor of paparazzi, Perry remained composed. It was just when a paparazzi broached the subject of impending parenthood that Perry’s eyes lit up with sheer delight.
“Great job. Everything’s going great,” Perry beamed, confirming the news. “I’m so glad,” he stated. “We’re both super excited, so that makes us both very happy.”
Reporters and fans alike breathed a collective breath of relief as Tyler Perry put an end to the speculations by quietly confirming the rumor. His uncontainable enthusiasm at the revelation brings the depth of his happiness.
While Tyler Perry’s most recent film, “Gone Girl,” which is directed by David Fincher and playing Ben Affleck, Neil Patrick Harris, and Rosamund Pike, was the target of the night, Perry himself took center stage due to this significant milestone in his personal life and the release of his latest cinematic endeavor.
