Ex-beauty queen and new mom Anna Ebiere Banner covers this month’s edition of BM Pro Covers wearing a strapless ball gown with a crystal-embellished bodice and tulle cathedral train by Love Tims.
The mother of one and baby mama to highlife sensation Flavour looks as stunning as ever and could pass for a real bride seeing how convincing she looks in these photos.
BM|Pro CEO and makeup artist extraordinaire Banke Meshida-Lawal had this to say about working with the hot mum: Meeting Anna Ebiere for the first time; it struck me how shy she was. As she gingerly walked into the I Do Weddings boutique to try out the beautiful dresses we selected for the shoot; we were all smitten with her and that figure! I’m thinking, “how can it be that she just had a baby and that stomach is as flat as a washboard?!” Not fair… 7 years on, and I am still huffing and puffing in the gym!
Coupled with some great genes, she must be lucky to be as fit as she is because she doesn’t do much at the moment. Most of her time goes into teaching, training, and loving her daughter.
“Spending quality time with her is all that matters to me right now,” she says, “plus I’m using this opportunity to plan for my future.” Anna was crowned the Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria 2013/2014 and also went on to represent Nigeria in Bali, Indonesia, at the Miss World Pageant.
After her reign, she went on to birth beautiful Sofia. I ask how it’s been with the sleepless nights and all the “Joy” of motherhood, the things nobody tells you the truth about – no more sleep, 24-hour watch, diapers, burping, washing bottles, and sterilizing crying for no reason or a reason you are yet to decipher… Lol … we laugh, and she says –
“I’m happy and proud to say motherhood is amazingly awesome! It’s been a beautiful experience so far. Sometimes I look at her and smile with so much love deep down in my heart….No doubt, motherhood has its own challenges, can drive you crazy sometimes …. But seeing Sofia coo and giggle and laugh makes it all worth it. Sofia is the best thing that has ever happened to me”
Anna Ebiere says this with so much joy and pride we both end up sharing a moment *insert loved up emoticon.*
Anna has striking features, a pout that can transform her into this Glamourous Diva, masking a slight lisp that endears her to you as she speaks. I chose to accentuate her lips as she modeled a dress from I Do Weddings’ new wedding dress collection.
First, try, and the dress fit her like a glove. We didn’t even bother trying another one. She shone like a diamond princess.
