Using his own experience as an example, Rapudo revealed that he waited for two years before Amber became his. The father of three recounted how their first meeting didn’t lead to an immediate connection, as Amber Ray, a nightclub host and social media influencer, was more interested in setting him up with one of her friends.
Reflecting on their initial encounter, Rapudo described it as a serendipitous moment. “There used to be a club along Thika Road, I can’t quite remember the name, but it was popular during the COVID period. People would go there, park their cars, and chill while drinking and eating,” he explained.
“One day, I was there with some friends, sitting in a corner drinking, and there was this lady who kept looking at me. I wondered, ‘Why is this girl constantly looking at me?’ It turned out to be Amber Ray. That’s how we met for the first time,” he recalled during an interview with Parents Magazine.

After that initial meeting, Rapudo introduced himself to Amber, but she was dating someone else at the time, which marked the beginning of their dance around each other. Interestingly, he noted that once Amber was single again, she sought him out.
“I’m the one who went to her, introduced myself, and said, ‘Hey, I’ve seen you on social media. You look very beautiful.’ We met again when she was dating someone, and then again when I was seeing someone. But as soon as she was single, I didn’t waste time—I snatched her up,” Rapudo said, laughing.
He emphasized that patience was key to their eventual relationship. “I didn’t waste time because I had been waiting for almost two years. She kept looking at me because she wanted to hook me up with one of her friends, but I was actually interested in her. Eventually, one day when she was available, she reached out. She called or texted me, I can’t remember, and asked if I wanted to have a glass of wine. The rest is history,” he concluded
