Former TV personality Janet Mbugua has opened up about her celibacy journey, sharing how it aligns with her personal growth and self-reflection.

“Being single, sober, and celibate isn’t something I’m flaunting as an achievement. It’s about taking a pause to listen to myself and make critical decisions. I’ve been single, sober, and celibate for over a year. I’m not sure when I’ll resume some of the things I’ve set aside. For now, I’m allowing myself to fully embrace this period.”
She further clarified that her decision stems from self-preservation rather than pleasure, admitting it has been both rewarding and challenging.
“It has brought me immense peace and perspective, but it’s not easy. We live in an overly sexualized society, and being celibate often leads people to assume something is wrong with you,” she said.
Janet also addressed rumors of her being involved with a younger man after posting a cryptic message on social media. In the post, she stated:

“You can meet a 45-year-old boy and a 23-year-old man—because maturity isn’t tied to your birth year. The same goes for women. Age might bring wrinkles, but it doesn’t always bring wisdom. Moral of the story: Don’t let the number fool you. 🎂”
She clarified the context of her post, emphasizing that it was misunderstood.
“People assumed it was about me dating a younger man, but that’s not the case. You can embrace different aspects of life that don’t always align with people’s assumptions,” Janet explained.
