Blames family and herself

Apart from the violence she quickly escaped from, Nyaminde says she was also part of the problem; as she often hosted her family members every now and then – making privacy a problem for husband.

I also contributed to the breakup. I think by the time one thing that contributed to our breakup was that I was with my relatives all the time. My sisters were always at my house, I didn’t see a big deal with it until later on after we broke up, he mentioned it to his friend.

Adding;

I didn’t see that. Looking at it now I am like, I contributed to their coming. I went overboard. I enjoyed their company but it cost me.

Having learnt her lesson the hard way, the popular actress now says;

I no longer entertain visitors even my relatives. People need their personal space. It’s one of the things. You have to be mentally prepared to have friends over.

Former Papa Shirandula’s actress Wilbroda shares experience with postpartum depression

Posted on May 11, 2021May 11, 2021 by Pauline Syombua

The journey of motherhood is tough. Believe me it’s harder than you think but truth is, most mums will never complain about this; because at the end of the day – a child will always remain as a blessing.

Papa Shirandula's Wilbroda — Papa Shirandula’s Wilbroda

As the world celebrated Mother’s Day on Sunday, a few of our local celebrities i.e Papa Shirandula’s actress Nyaminde popularly known as Wilbroda opened up about her journey into mother leaving many quite shocked.

Wilbroda’s experience as a first time mum

According to Nyaminde, she was blessed with her first child in 2010; a handsome baby boy who was delivered through a C Section surgery and no complications.

As expected the new mum was really excited to have a healthy baby boy; but little did she know the nightmares awaiting for her.

On the 16th of July, 2010, I became a mother to a beautiful baby boy. It was birth by C section and my friends were there with me from the moment i got into theatre up until when the surgery was done. Thankyou @victorgatonye Thank you @king_lambourghini
4 days later, I was home, excited about this new chapter of my life.

How she unknowingly battled Postpartum depression

Just like most mums, Ms Nyaminde ended up with postpartum depression which comes to new mums; but unfortunately she was not aware the whole time.

From the post, the mother of one says the postpartum depression slowly graduated from feeling sad during the evenings; to crying and just like that depression took over.

But then almost immediately, I started having feelings that I did not understand. I was extremely sad…There was this hollowness that would show up, especially in the evenings. I’d experience such anxiety and just start crying. I didn’t understand it, I’d never heard of it. It just didn’t feel right.I mean I was supposed to be happy .

Of course the postpartum depression also comes with mum guilt that left Wilbroda wondering why she wasn’t happy with her newborn; but hey – through it all she managed to remain sane. Sharing her experience, the actress went on to write;

I had just been blessed with the most precious gift. I hated that feeling. I hated evenings. I told nobody about it. It just slowly slipped away…Only later did I get to know that what I went through was called Postpartum Depression.

“I feared for my life and had to leave,” Wilbroda tearfully talks about violent relationship with baby daddy (Video)

Posted on October 28, 2020October 28, 2020 by Gloria Katunge

Speaking on Joyce Gituro’s vlog, the actress recalled how she fell pregnant within an year of dating her man but soon after, the father to her child turned into something else.

Tables turn

Wilbroda’s baby daddy started shouting at her in the presence of her nanny and her son, turning the house into chaos. She cried severally and even begged friends for help, because her marriage is just not working.

He once nearly kicked her out of their house at 4am in the morning. This saw the intervention of the late Papa Shirandula but soon after decided she was going to leave and fend for her child.

Fortunately, two weeks later, Jacky found a suitable house and had to leave, but then her baby daddy pleaded with her to remain and solve their issues amicably, something she completely turned down.

Unfortunately, this is a trait she had noticed in him during their very early days of dating, but ignored it until it blew up on her face.

“One day he shouted at me in the presence of my son, who immediately reacted looking scared and that is what made me decide I have had enough,” she revealed.

However, her baby daddy never hit her.

It is since then that she has remained single, revealing that she is waiting for that one man who has the ‘X factor’ that makes him stand-out.

A man she can have intelligent conversations with, be a mentor to her son and be financially stable because she has carried too many men on her back and it is time she gets treated right as well.

Kila mtu hukuwa Papa Shirandula from Papa himself, to the crew to everyone we are a family and they always will be my family,” she said.
