Mide Martins' Transformation Photos Go Viral on Instagram
On Thursday, September 3, 2026, actress Mide Martins shared a throwback carousel on Instagram, juxtaposing a candid image from her earlier years with a polished, professionally shot photo of her current self. The post, tagged with #throwbackthursday, quickly gained traction as followers commented on the stark visual contrast between the two images.
The older photo features Mide cradling a newborn, dressed in a white blouse and dark patterned headwrap, while the recent image showcases her in an elaborate white traditional outfit, complete with a large, styled gele, multi-strand pearl necklace, and full glam makeup under studio lighting. Mide, born in 1979, has built her career in Yoruba-language cinema and gained further recognition after the passing of her mother, veteran Funmi Martins, in 2002.
She is married to filmmaker Afeez Owo and has two children. The comments section of her post revealed a lively debate among fans, with many celebrating her transformation and attributing it to modern styling.
