Often things get out of control and we’re left with no choice but to adapt with life accordingly. However, no child wants to be brought up by a single parent. But as they say, things happen, and when they do, we have to make the lemonades when life brings us the lemon.
Raising a child by yourself can be a challenging and terrifying challenge, but these Kenyan celebrities have shown that it can actually be a fun and satisfying experience if you chose to concentrate on the positive. They inspire us, though, and not only do we love them, but we are also very proud of them.
1.AVRIL
Avril has deliberately decided that she will forever remain lip-tighten about the father of her son. The sultry singer gave birth to her son in April 2018, there were speculations that music producer J Blessing was her son’s father. In a previous interview with Massawe Japanni on Radio Jambo, Avril disclosed that she was raising her son as a single parent even though she claimed she had a good relationship with her baby daddy.
2.NICAH
The gospel queen was married to Dr. Ofweneke, but later she admitted that Ofweneke was a violent man, and that made her part. Their breakup became public in 2017 after Nicah The Queen went on to narrate how the comedian had manipulated her. She’s a single mom of two who’s overcome all the odds of getting food on her baby’s table.
3.MWENDE MACHARIA
The ‘queen of the airwaves,’ as she describes herself, also had a share of her own with a dead-beat father. Mwende dated J. Blessing, but the two lovebirds split up on what she described as fundamental issues. She is now raising her son, Champion, who has a striking resemblance to the famous video producer / director.
4.AKOTHEE
She is a self-proclaimed ‘president of single mothers.’ Having had more than one baby daddy, this controversial singer never shies away from calling out deadbeat dads. Akothee has five kids and three baby daddies. But we can all agree on one thing about Akothee, she’s a lit mom. Even after losing three children, Akothee hasn’t lost her humor, and she’s still a good mom for her five children.
5.GRACE MSALAME
The former TV queen, who exudes elegance and glamor, had twin daughters, Raha and Zawadi, and her ex-lover, Paul Ndichu. Grace kept her daughters in custody after her marriage to Paul Ndichu hit the rock bottom. Paul remarried though Grace had yet to make a second attempt at marriage. Without a question, the host of Curvaceous TV has managed to put the two lovely girls on their own.
6.PIERRA MAKENA
The stunning DJ had never been discreet enough to make it known to the public that she had raised her beautiful daughter on her own after breaking up with her baby dad two weeks after learning that she had conceived. She had given birth to Rica Pokot in July 2016, and since then she had remained a tight-lipped girl about her daughter’s paternity until last year in October.
