Edna Owuor’s life took an unexpected turn when she found herself thrust into the spotlight as the alleged baby mama of the late marathon world record holder, Kelvin Kiptum.
At just 22 years old, Edna found herself grappling with the loss of her romantic partner and the challenges of raising their daughter, Cherop Kiptum.
In a candid interview with TUKO.co.ke, Edna opened up about her relationship with Kiptum and the profound impact his death had on her and their young daughter.
She recounted the fond memories they shared and the shock she experienced upon hearing the news of his tragic accident on that fateful Sunday night in February.
Despite the disbelief and denial that initially clouded her mind, reality soon set in as Edna received confirmation of Kiptum’s passing from a mutual friend.
The weight of her loss was made even heavier by the presence of their daughter, who became restless and feverish in the wake of her father’s death, seeking comfort in her mother’s embrace.
Edna’s story is one of love, loss, and resilience. Despite the pain of losing Kiptum, she remains focused on providing a bright future for their daughter.
Her determination to continue her education speaks to her strength and commitment to building a better life for herself and her child.
Throughout it all, Edna has remained steadfast in her desire for her daughter to be recognized and acknowledged as Kiptum’s child.
Despite the challenges she has faced, including legal battles and scrutiny from Kiptum’s wife, Asenath Rotich, Edna’s priority remains the well-being of her daughter.
Though Kiptum may no longer be by her side, his memory lives on in the love they shared and the daughter they brought into the world together.
