Carol Kim and Triza Njeri have sparked fresh discussions online after Triza appeared to criticise her co-wife’s decision to prepare chapatis for their husband, Karangu Muraya.
The discussion began after Carol Kim shared photos of herself preparing chapatis in the kitchen. In the pictures, Carol appeared dressed in a chef’s apron and head wrap as she prepared the meal for her husband.
Her post attracted attention from social media users, with some praising her efforts while others wondered how Triza, Karangu’s first wife, would react.
Shortly afterwards, Triza went live on TikTok and spoke about her views on cooking for a man. Although she did not directly mention Carol by name in the statements reported, some viewers interpreted her remarks as a response to her co-wife’s post.
During the live session, Triza said she would rather focus on building wealth than spend her time cooking for a man, adding that chefs could be hired to prepare meals.
“Let someone marry me so that we can build wealth and not just to be there for cooking. I cannot make wealth and cook, there are chefs we can hire to do that,” she said.
Triza further explained that she often felt tired after working to make money and did not want to be expected to go to the kitchen at the end of a long day.
Her remarks prompted some viewers to connect her comments to Carol’s chapati-making photos. Others questioned why she had brought up chapatis, given the timing of her remarks.
Responding to the discussion, Triza said she knew how to prepare chapatis but did not consider cooking such meals a priority. She also questioned the need to showcase cooking activities on TikTok, insisting that her focus was on making money.
The remarks triggered mixed reactions among social media users, with some defending Carol’s decision to cook for her husband while others supported Triza’s position that women should also prioritise their financial goals.
Some commenters praised Carol for her domestic efforts, while others suggested that hiring a cook could be an option for people who preferred to spend more time on other responsibilities.
The exchange has renewed public interest in the relationship between the two women, whose differences over Karangu’s polygamous marriage have previously attracted attention on social media.
Triza has openly expressed difficulties with the arrangement in the past, while Carol has reportedly denied competing with her co-wife.
In August 2025, Triza also made headlines after indicating that she had found love again following the marital disagreements that had drawn public attention.
Meanwhile, Carol’s latest photos have continued to generate conversations about marriage, domestic responsibilities and financial independence, with social media users expressing different views on whether cooking for a partner should be seen as an act of love or an unnecessary obligation.
Neither the timing of Triza’s remarks nor the reported online reactions conclusively establish that her comments were directed at Carol. However, the circumstances surrounding the posts have led many viewers to interpret the exchange as another chapter in the public discussion surrounding the family.
