As with any other married couple, Simon and Sarah Kabu’s marriage has its fair share of troubles. The celebrity couple, known for ostentatious displays of affection, now faces the biggest challenge of their lives.
The couple’s troubles are playing out publicly, shattering the image of bliss they have cultivated since they exchanged vows in 2009 – there’s a YouTube video of their wedding.
Sarah and Simon Kabu’s Wedding.
With a huge following on social media, the couple has hundreds of thousands of admirers, who see them as role models enjoying their marriage while jointly running a successful travel business. The latest developments have left fans disillusioned.
It all started during the first weekend of April, when Sarah Kabu posted on WhatsApp that her husband, Simon, had taken away their two children, allegedly with the help of police officers. Sarah said she is done with Simon, hence his rushed decision to take the children.
SHOCK AND DISBELIEF
The reaction from the couple’s fans ranged from shock to disbelief. Many couldn’t accept that the couple they admired for more than a decade was facing hard times. Indeed, Sarah and Simon have been posting on social media every detail of their lives.
In July 2017, Simon bought his wife a new Range Rover luxury car for her 39th birthday. He had a huge cake put on top of a van and driven around Nairobi CBD as a public show of affection for Sarah.
Afterwards, the couple had dinner at an exclusive restaurant in the city. In total, Simon spent about Sh30 million that day! For her 35th birthday, Simon gave Sarah a new Mercedes Benz vehicle.
Three years later, Sarah gifted her husband a home worth Sh37 million at Ol Pejeta, Nanyuki.
“Sarah, I will continue supporting you in anything you do and will always make you happy. I will make sure you get a surprise of the century,” an overjoyed Simon said at the time.
With such lavish (some would say exaggerated) romance, news of the couple’s apparent separation caught fans by surprise.
“I can’t believe this! I saw them shooting a video while dancing happily together just the other day,” wrote Belline Campbell on Facebook. “When you start comparing yourself with people on social media, you will just get stressed and die of pressure … everyone is faking it.”
