Content creator and actress Carrol Sonie has set social media abuzz after unveiling a bold and ambitious birthday wish list ahead of her special day.
As she prepared to mark her birthday on Tuesday, 6 January 2026, the media personality shared a list of eight high-value wishes, ranging from major investments and luxury items to deeply personal life goals. The list, posted on her social media stories, reflects a growing trend among Kenyan celebrities who are increasingly open about their aspirations, milestones and lifestyle goals.
The Eight-Point Wishlist
Titled “MY BIRTHDAY WISH LIST 😊 – 6th January,” Sonie’s list blends material success with personal growth. Among the standout wishes is her desire for a second child, a revelation that has particularly caught the attention of fans given her well-documented past co-parenting challenges.
Her full wishlist includes:
- Land – signalling a focus on real estate investment
- iPhone 17 – the latest flagship smartphone
- Mazda CX-8 – a premium SUV
- Money bouquet – a popular gifting trend in Nairobi
- International holiday – travel outside the country
- Baby number two – expanding her family
- More money – financial growth and stability
- Production equipment – to support her project, The CS Show
The Mulamwah Connection
Carrol Sonie rose to national prominence during her long-term relationship with comedian Mulamwah. The two share a daughter, Keilah Oyando, born in September 2021.
Their breakup shortly after the birth attracted significant public attention, with their co-parenting disagreements and paternity claims playing out in the media. Since then, Sonie has focused on rebuilding her personal brand and growing The CS Show, for which she is now seeking production equipment.
Her wish for a second child has sparked curiosity among followers, especially as she has kept her current dating life largely private compared to her highly publicised past relationship.
Birthday Wishlists: A Growing Celebrity Trend
The “birthday wishlist” phenomenon has become a defining feature of Kenyan celebrity culture in recent years. Influencers increasingly use such lists to engage fans, spark conversation and subtly signal expectations to brands or admirers.
The trend gained momentum in 2025 after radio presenter Claudia Naisabwa’s wishlist went viral. It was soon adopted by other public figures including Awinja, Mwende Macharia, Abel Mutua, Eddie Butita and several others.
Many of the most talked-about wishlists featured luxury items such as high-end smartphones, premium vehicles and meaningful family-related gestures — a blend of aspiration, humour and personal expression that continues to resonate with Kenyan audiences.
With her candid and ambitious list, Carrol Sonie has once again placed herself at the centre of the conversation.
