Nick Ruto, the firstborn son of President William Ruto, made a rare public appearance over the weekend at the wedding of billionaire David Lang’at’s daughter, Nicole, in Limuru.
He was accompanied by his sisters, Charlene and Stephanie Ruto. Nick drew attention with his new look—a full-grown beard, a striking change from his usual clean-shaven appearance.
Dressed in a checkered suit with a white shirt and tie, Nick appeared relaxed and cheerful. Videos from the event captured him interacting with other guests and dancing on the floor, showcasing a lively and happy demeanor. His beard quickly became the focus of conversations on social media, with many noting how different he looked.
The wedding attracted politicians, corporate leaders, and celebrities from around the world. High-profile attendees included former Prime Minister Raila Odinga, Olympic champion Eliud Kipchoge, and Tanzanian singer Juma Jux. The Ruto family’s presence highlighted their close ties to the Lang’at family, known for their extensive business interests in energy, agriculture, and real estate.
While Nick has generally maintained a private life since his father became president in 2022, his sisters have been more visible in public events. At the wedding, Charlene shared videos on her Instagram Stories, celebrating the couple in a vibrant orange sari, while Stephanie also enjoyed the festivities.
Kenyans on social media responded enthusiastically to Nick’s appearance, praising his new look and sharing clips of him smiling and dancing. The occasion offered a rare glimpse of the president’s firstborn in a personal and relaxed setting, leaving a memorable impression on guests and viewers alike.
