However, overnight she dropped the name, the ring and they had a divorce with the husband left a crying man.
Adelle Onyango And Christopher Obwaka

However, they broke up mysteriously and the wedding never materialized writing another sad chapter. The lady has moved on to someone else.
Linda Muthama and Walter Mong’are

Sheila Mwanyigah And Simon Rushton and Prezzo
Sheila Mwanyigah has had quite an active dating life. The one-time radio and TV presenter made headlines when she broke her engagement from her white European boyfriend to go and date with Prezzo. It was a shocker given how young the showbiz was at the time. It turned out her relationship with Prezzo did not last long enough.
Esther Arunga and Wilson Malaba
The good girl gone bad template was followed in its dramatic and horrific wholeness by Esther Arunga. Long before she was facing the court along with the husband over the death of her son, she had been engaged to one Wilson Malaba. The event organizer would be in shock as the rest of us when the TV anchor called of the marriage making off with one Quincy Timberlake leaving the Wilson licking his pride, pockets and dented image.
