On Saturday, September 16, Rapudo took to social media to rant about a birthday party he hosted for his eight-year-old son.
He poured his heart out after his son did not show up for a party he planned.
The businessman noted that not all absent dads were deadbeats, as he genuinely looked forward to spending time with his son.
After his son failed to show, rumours started swirling of how the socialite’s lover was a deadbeat dad.
In an interview with Eve Mungai, he finally addressed the issue, noting that his baby mama had barred his son from seeing him.
Rapudo noted that he sent the driver to pick up his son, but his baby mama told the driver that she could not release the boy.
The socialite’s lover noted that he has followed all the court regulations and does not understand why he was denied spending time with his son.
“Since they are in the public domain it’s also fair I give my side of the story. When the hearing was done thru gave a verdict on the 1st of September this year. I was to have custody if my son. His birthday is usually on the 12th of September. On the said date I went to school and surprised him. The mother also showed up. That week was also supposed to be my weekend with him so I hired him a driver and I also bought him a car. When the driver got there, he called the mother and she said she couldn’t release him since the next day was his birthday. So she denied me access once again. We had paid for the birthday set up. I had invited some of his friends. So imagine going through such expenses.
I first sued her on the 22nd of December and my reasons were that she was going to one of the Telegram bloggers and spewing lies about me. How I am a deadbeat and all that. You know these things the child eventually grows up and I never want my son to grow up and see I was never there to support him. She was not the one who took it. I was the one who took it so that I can have access to my son. That is what happened.”
