Popular Kikuyu gospel singer Muigai wa Njoroge recently stirred emotions online after sharing a touching throwback video featuring his estranged first wife, Gladys Njeri.
The two were once considered a power couple in the local gospel music scene, often collaborating on uplifting songs that resonated deeply with fans.
In the short video, Muigai posted a clip from their hit song Maria Hitukiire, a piece that encourages faith in God and holding onto hope during hard times.
The song showcases the couple’s once-strong bond, as they delivered heartfelt vocals and synchronized dance moves. The nostalgic moment left fans yearning for a musical reunion between the two.
Njeri and Muigai were happily married in the early 2000s, and their chemistry was evident both in their music and personal life.
However, in early 2024, Njeri opened up during an emotional interview with Kameme FM, revealing that their marriage had ended.
She disclosed that Muigai had taken another wife, Queen Stacey, which marked the beginning of a difficult period in her life.
The mother of four candidly spoke about the emotional toll the separation took on her. She battled depression, turned to alcohol, and spent many nights in bars as she struggled to cope.
Njeri also claimed that Muigai took a car they had bought together and gifted it to another woman.
Despite the pain and betrayal she experienced, fans admire Njeri for her strength and transformation into a life coach and influencer.
Meanwhile, Muigai’s gesture of sharing the old video seemed to touch many, with some urging him to consider a musical collaboration with Njeri once again.
