Actress and TV presenter Nana Ama McBrown is on good terms with Fadda Dickson and Osei Kwame 'Despite', despite leaving UTV for Onua TV.
After about four years in charge, McBrown moved from being the presenter of UTV's United Showbiz to joining Onua in 2023.
Following her move, there have many speculations that McBrown had fallen out with her former bosses.
McBrown is cool with Fadda and Despite
More than a year after her move and the many rumours surrounding it, the actress has clarified that no animosity exists between her and her former employers.
In a recent interview with Bola Ray on Starr Chat, McBrown explained that she left UTV because she felt her time there had ended.
"I decided to leave UTV because I felt my time there was up. If I ever reach that point with Media General, I will take my talents elsewhere," she said.
On her relationship with Fadda and Despite, she stated:
"Despite Media is still my home. I still speak to Fadda because we are very good friends. If I want to do a promotion on UTV today, I'll call Fadda, and I'll be surprised if he rejects me. Even if he rejects me, I'll go to Despite or Dr Sarpong, because I'm still fine with them."

McBrown is worth emulating
Reacting to McBrown's narration, Owusu Worae praised the actress for handling her move.
In an interview with YEN.com.gh, the head of entertainment news at TV3 noted that McBrown's refusal to talk about previous employers in the immediate aftermath of her move was the best decision she took.
"I've encountered her a few times since Onua TV shares the same compound as TV3, and she is lovely, but I'm particularly impressed by how she managed to stay clear of the negativity after her move. In all the rumours, she never uttered a word and it is only until now that she explains herself.
"Also, the fact she still maintained a good relationship with her previous bosses is something worth emulating. In our space, relationships often get broken with such high-profile moves and the rumours that heralded it," he said.
