Anne Kansiime’s Unique Dowry Arrangement: Why She Funded It Herself

Anne Kansiime recently sparked discussions after revealing that she once covered her own dowry payment.

The comedian and mother of one shared that she took this unconventional step to ease the burden on her late father, who frequently inquired about her marriage plans.

In an interview with Uganda’s NRG Radio, Kansiime explained that since she was financially independent at the time, she decided to handle the dowry herself.

“I was tired of my father reminding me to push my partner to pay. At that point, I was earning well and had even started a business. So, I figured, ‘Let me just give Daddy this money so we can move on.’ I kept urging my partner to pay, and when he eventually gave me the money, I paid it myself. After that, I stopped bringing it up, and he never mentioned it again. But that’s in the past now,” she said.

Despite the unconventional decision, Kansiime has no regrets.

“Yes, I did it. Do I regret it? Not at all. Every experience has shaped who I am today, and now I have a story to tell. Besides, regretting things that have already happened doesn’t change anything,” she said.

Breakup Rumors with Skylanta

Recently, speculation has been swirling on social media about a possible split between Kansiime and her husband, musician Skylanta. Fans fueled the rumors after she hinted at a new phase in her life.

However, it was later revealed that she was teasing a new project. A cryptic post she shared read:

“One day, somebody you sacrificed so much for will turn around and say they never asked for it, and it will hurt because they will be right.”

The message led many to speculate about her relationship status. Addressing the rumors, Skylanta dismissed breakup claims and urged people not to jump to conclusions.

“I came back online and found chaos—fire on the mountain! I’ve been trying to calm things down,” he joked.

He added, “When we started this, none of you were there. Somehow, it became public, but none of you were involved. Anne and I know how to handle whatever is going on. She’s happy, and I’m happy. I don’t see why people are attacking me.”

For now, the couple has chosen to keep their relationship status private, leaving fans guessing.
