Kenyan actress and content creator Nyaboke Moraa has once again stirred emotions online after sharing a heart-wrenching video about her ongoing struggles with grief and betrayal. In a candid post that left many fans worried, the actress spoke of deep pain — not only from losing her daughter, but also from being abandoned by those she once trusted.
Nyaboke tragically lost her only daughter, Marie, on July 28, 2024, and since then, she’s been trying to cope with grief while also parenting her remaining children. In her emotional outburst, Nyaboke revealed she still takes sleeping pills and sometimes turns to alcohol just to get a few hours of rest.
But what hurt her even more, she says, was how friends turned their backs on her when she needed them most.
“The people closest to me hurt me deeply — when I couldn’t even afford food or rent, when I was down to nothing. That’s when they disappeared,” she said through tears.
She added that even though she’s recently resumed posting content online, people should not mistake her smiles for healing. “I post videos laughing, but inside, I’m still breaking,” she admitted.
The emotional video sparked an outpouring of support from fans, with some urging fellow celebrities like Sandra Dacha to check on her. Others encouraged her to cut off toxic people and focus on her children, who have even started asking her why she cries at night.
Nyaboke, who previously took a break from social media, also shared her number with fans who wished to support her directly.
Her story is a stark reminder that even the people who make us laugh online may be silently fighting painful battles behind the scenes.
