Bridget Achieng was blessed with a baby boy in February 2019. The former socialite has been over the moon since the birth of her pride and joy Sekani Rich.
In a recent interview with the curvaceous business-lady spoke about her son and the influence he had had on her since his birth.
He has changed me. Before I do anything I have to think about him. I am mom and dad at the same time. You know I am an orphan at the moment. I lost my mom when I was giving birth to Sekani.
He had also influenced how she used her money.
“Right now I am controlling the money I make better. I didn’t know I would be able to hold a festival that held 10,000 people. This boy has made me become a better version of myself.”
Adding,
“I spend a thousand dollars a month on his cover. If I die today and God forbid, my son is taken care of for the rest of his life. That is how you show as a parent that you love your kid. You secure their future. My son was been rated one of the best-dressed kids in East Africa.”
And what did she think of getting other siblings for Sekani?
You don’t know how strong you are until strong is all you have left. For me, if I get 2 or 3 more kids, I will be able to handle it well. Even if it from different fathers, I will take care of them and make sure that they know their fathers. I can’t tame a man and I also don’t want a man I can seat on.
And how was her baby daddy’s relationship with his son? She said that while she might not be on the best of terms with him, that that didn’t influence her decision to allow him to be in Sekani’s life.
Even if Sekani’s dad was trying to come back it just didn’t work out, I still felt the trauma. I just felt that he could leave the same way he did the first time. Yes, he is trying but we aren’t there yet. When someone is trying you have to give them credit. He wants to be in his son’s life. I don’t want any drama.
Finishing by adding, “That’s what single mom’s forget-that your child deserves to have a relationship with their father, especially if he is a bad boy. Cause when he is older he will want to know his roots. It’s not about me at the moment but for the boy.”
