Behind his ever-present smile lies a history of struggles and painful experiences, which he revealed during an interview on Lawson FM with media personality Kwame Tanko, as monitored by Gh Page.
Lilwin opened up about his humble beginnings, recalling how difficult life was when he first ventured into acting.
