The Cost of Loving Her Career

Secrets abound in the entertainment industry and while the public is usually kept in the dark as to the veracity of such stories, time always finds a way to reveal the truth. While showbiz insiders are privy to such secrets, the silent rule is for them not to spread, confirm, or deny. Thus, even if the whispers are loud, public acknowledgments of third parties are frowned upon.

Most often, these secrets concern siring children outside of marriage. When a celebrity commits infidelity and the transgression bears fruit, the child is either shielded from reality or exposed to the public in a bid to call attention, especially if denials are made left and right by the alleged parent.

In the case of An Actress (AA), her career followed the stereotypical path. After establishing her status in the industry, AA opted to go on a long break. Thus, the public immediately assumed that she was at an interesting stage. However, the other issue was finding out the alleged father. Then, fingers pointed at Inconspicuous Businessman (IB). A celebrity in his own field, his connections allowed him to meet with AA and he was smitten.

The problem with the attraction of IB to AA is that he is pictured to be a happily married man. Hence, connecting his name to AA could cause a great deal of embarrassment. To avoid any scandal, IB provided support for his alleged child (HC) with AA. The support was good enough for AA to raise HC well. However, that meant leaving showbiz for the meantime, which AA did not seem to mind.

Time passed. AA found her happiness and HC has grown into an adorable child. Now, the desire to work kept calling AA. After carefully studying her options, AA chose a project. When friends of IB found out what AA did, they immediately informed IB, who, it turns out, did not like the idea of AA working. Besides, his investment was not in the project of AA, which made him disappointed. Hence, IB reacted by removing the financial support he has been giving AA, but retained the support for HC.

Despite the reaction of IB, no one is expecting AA to complain or use the public to gain sympathy. As far as she is concerned, she would rather continue keeping her life private to spare HC from the curious.

‘In all secrets there is a kind of guilt, however beautiful or joyful they may be, or for what good end they may be set to serve. Secrecy means evasion, and evasion means a problem to the moral mind.’ – Gilbert Parker
