Murugi Munyi discusses how her cheating scandal affected her husband

Murugi Munyi has spoken out about the infidelity allegations that rocked her marriage in 2022. In an interview with Lynn Ngugi, the mother of three said that she is tired of people focusing their energy on her marriage and that she is not going to defend herself against the allegations.

“People can write anything but I never say anything,” she said. “Kenyans are not discerning when it comes to the media, most people do not open and read the articles. If you want to believe I am a certain person then do so, I can’t spend time defending myself. I can never defend a hand or a mouth that isn’t mine.”

Murugi also said that she believes that people should stop minding other people’s marriages. “You do not know anything about other people’s marriages,” she said. “Leave people who have been naked together alone. No publicity is bad publicity.”

Murugi and her husband, Zack Munyi, took a two-week break from their marriage after the allegations surfaced. They have since reconciled and are working to rebuild their relationship.

“It affected us 100%,” Murugi said. “Zack is very private so for him it was a difficult time to go through. It was very personal. At some point we took a break, the situation was causing us stress and we couldn’t be with each other respectfully.”

Murugi said that she and Zack are now in therapy and are working to communicate better. “We talked about the whole issue and we did what we could to keep our marriage together,” she said.

Murugi’s story is a reminder that infidelity can be a devastating experience for couples. However, it is also a reminder that it is possible to overcome infidelity and rebuild a strong relationship.
