Betty Kyallo’s brother, Brian Msafari has come out to reveal that he has been battling with Bipolar II disorder which is a form of mental illness.
Bipolar II is similar to bipolar I disorder, with moods cycling between high and low over time.
However, in bipolar II disorder, the “up” moods never reach full-blown mania or rather never get out of hand.
In an interview with The Standard, Brian Msafari opened up about his story which has touched many who did not know that he was going through a situation that has saw him come out as a conqueror thanks to his supportive family. He said,
“ I have a bipolar 2 disorder so it never gets to the point of suicide or self-harm. I just go through periods where I am so low, a period where every day is a bad day, and no matter how much alcohol you take it does not give you a high. In fact, nothing you do or take can get rid of the dark clouds in your life; You are trapped in a depressive State. Imagine having continuous bad days that will just not let up no matter what you do. Then when you are on a manic stage you feel like you can conquer the world, and during this stage, I can even do three days straight of no sleep and in the past, I would be doing two or three projects at ago and somehow manage.”
Brian went on to add how his sister, Betty Kyallo has been supportive for the last 3 years saying;
“I have been dealing with depression as a result of bipolar for the last 3 years. Betty was always there for me even despite the fact that she was also going through her own struggles. She would go for Check ups with me and walked with me every step of the way.”
Betty Kyallo on other hand shared the beautiful message below congratulating her brother for being brace enough to share his story with the world. He said;
“Bro, I’m so proud of you for coming out and telling your inspiring story. May you impact lives and families dealing with what you went through I’m happy that you have gone through the fire and came out stronger with si much zeal for life. Love you to pieces. ❤️ #Stronger.”
What’s the craze with expensive handbag and purse? Vera Sidika saw Kenyans talking about Betty Kyallo’s Kes 90,000 purse and she went ahead to buy herself a Kes 520,000 handbag.
A few days ago, netizens were fascinated with the expensive purse that belonged to KTN’s beautiful news anchor Betty Kyallo.
Vera was quick to ‘steal’ the spotlight from Betty Kyallo when she announced she had bought a Kes 520,000 handbag which is of the same revered brand (Chanel) as Betty Kyallo’s purse. And she produced evidence to prove it all.
“My Chanel bag cost me 3,990, $5,300, Ksh 520,000, 10 million Tanzanian shillings, about 1.8 million naira & ul come tell me some girls r hating. Why won’t they? I’d hate on me too if I were them,” Vera Sidika captioned photo of her expensive handbag.
The bootyful socialite has taste for expensive things, she once caused a stir when she bought a bed worth a million bucks.
Before she started her career in media, Betty Kyallo was into fashion and modeling, and she was slaying just like an international super model.
Betty Kyallo studied Communication at the prestigious Daystar University, you would think she always had her eyes set on being on TV but this is not the case.
The pretty KTN anchor first shot to fame during her stint as a model, her career in modeling saw her become a celebrity in Mwingi.
Betty opened up about being a big shot in her rural Mwingi when she shared her old photo which was taken when she modeling for a local daily pullout.
“This pic was taken when I modeled for a local daily pullout so many years ago. See how I tried to look fierce! ??? It was such a big deal I became a celebrity overnight for my peeps back in Mwingi. It was all about “Mwiitu wa Kyallo” ??” Betty Kyallo wrote.
Being one of the most successful female anchors in the industry, Betty Kyallo has had both good and bad days but judging from most of her photos on social media it is easy to see that nothing really puts down the lass.
She has what many refer to as class and her fashion sense is not something you can easily overlook. Yesterday, the lass shared a new photo where she is seen wearing a gold long gown that actually looks like a modern wedding dress mostly won by stylish women.
Fans on the other hand couldn’t help but ask whether she was getting married for the second time and to brush off their curiosity, Betty Kyallo commented by saying;
No wedding bells please.??
Well, she however pulled down the post but luckily I had managed to get a screenshot of her amazing attire that will leave you drooling over her curvy figure.
Ivanna is not only a celebrity baby but a very lucky girl who gets to enjoy the fast life.
Having celebrated her 3rd birthday a few weeks ago, her mum, Betty Kyallo recently shared a photo of the little girl rocking a ballet outfit which she combined with a Chanel bag.
Baby Ivanna
Well, looking at Betty Kyallo’s life we can all agree that she has made enough money to carry knock off bags and for this reason her Chanel bag might have cost her around $ 9,999 since this is the price at which the designer bags cost.
The news anchor shared the photo through her Instagram page where she wrote saying,
My ballerina already rocking Chanel
Ivanna on the other hand definitely looked cute and judging from her height, there is no doubt that she got it from her daddy, Dennis Okari.
Baby Ivanna will turn a year old in a few days and her mother decided to do something out of the box for her daughter’s birthday celebration.
Betty Kyallo’s daughter has grown big, the kid will turn 3 this Friday June 23rd. The beautiful KTN anchor has already laid plans for her daughter’s birthday celebration.
Last night Betty held a pre-birthday party for Ivanna at her house which was only attended by a handful of friends and family.
The main birthday celebration for Ivanna will however be held in Kayole. The KTN anchor wants her daughter to celebrate her birthday with other kids at to Imani Children’s Centre in Kayole.
Betty has requested other Kenyans to donate foodstuff, clothes etc so that she could take them to the children’s home as her daughter celebrates her birthday there.
“Ivanna is turning 3 tomorrow ❤️ so instead of a birthday party my friends, family and I will be going to Imani Children’s Centre in Kayole on Saturday to celebrate it with the kids. If you have anything you want to give, not money but dry food, toiletries, clothes please I humbly request you to drop them off at Posh Palace,Sifa Towers Kilimani between today and Friday then I will deliver them to the sweet little souls on Saturday. Also if you want to accompany me just DM me. Please support me as I do something small for them. #IvannaTurns3” Wrote Betty.
TV queen Betty Mutei Kyallo is among the single mothers who have demanding careers but are never too busy for their families. She always makes a point of spending time with her daughter despite her busy schedule.
Just recently Betty shared a photo spending some quality time with her baby girl, something we had not seen in a while. Anyway seems like she had arranged a play date for her daughter and her best friend’s daughter at her home.
From her caption ‘let me live you a little more, before you’re not little anymore’ clearly showing that she was making all efforts to treasure the memories of spending time with her baby girl. Checkout the photo below:

“I have officially decided to walk away from my relationship with Sean. Posting this is extremely hard for me and so I pray that you guys continue to support me regardless. I’ve reached a point in my life where I want to build my own empire and grow as an individual. Though Sean played a very big role in my life, people don’t stay the same forever and the relationship became unhealthy. I simply want to go in a very different direction in life than he does. I want you all to learn to accept change in your life as I am and to still reach for your dreams no matter what. Avoid anything and anyone that is toxic and do you no matter what rumors are spread, and what hate comes your way. I personally am not ready for another relationship so I’ll be doing my school and social media things..’’ Elodie Zone replied to Sean’s post.

The beautiful Citizen TV anchor filed for divorce at the Chief Magistrate’s Court at Milimani in Nairobi, on January 7th 2016.
In the divorce case No 19 of 2016, Lillian cited adultery, cruelty and desertion as the reasons behind the impending divorce from Kanene.

Mike Sonko confirmed that Ben threw Saumu Mbuvi out of his house during an interview a few days after his daughter gave birth.
6.Gloria Muliro and Eric Omba
Gloria Muliro and Eric Omba
Pastor Eric Omba’s loose zip was the reason why Gloria Muliro dumped him like a hot potato. The ‘Ndio Yako’ hit maker accused her husband of sleeping around with young ladies at Spotlight media.
Eric tried moving mountains to get back with Gloria but not even the sweetest words from his tongue could woo back his wife into his pouch.
7.Eunice Njeri and Isaac Bukasa
Eunice Njeri and Isaac Bukasa
What can possibly cause newlyweds to breakup less than 24 hours after they exchanged vows? Eunice Njeri travelled to US last year to be Isaac Bukasa’s legally wed wife but she came back to the country saying she didn’t sign the marriage certificate.
Whatever she saw on the night of their wedding is thought to be the reason that frightened her to be Bukasa’s wife…no one really know the cause of their dramatic breakup.
8.Betty Kyallo and Dennis Okari
Betty Kyallo and Dennis Okari
A governor from the Coast is said to be the reason why Dennis Okari and Betty Kyallo went their separate ways some six months after they exchanged vows.
Apparently the said governor was ‘eating from the same plate’ with Okari, and when the NTV journalist discovered he was sharing his meal with the county boss he opted to leave it for him to feast alone.
9.Paul Ndichu and Grace Msalame
Paul Ndichu and Grace Msalame
Paul Ndichu and Grace Msalame are blessed with beautiful twin daughters; the two were happily married until their love expired years ago.
Paul Ndichu and Evaline Momanyi
To date it’s still not clear what pushed Paul to leave his family and start a new one. Janet Mbugua’s brother-in-law recently married Evaline Momanyi while Grace Msalame hasn’t yet found another man to replace the gap her ex hubby left in her heart.
10.Timmy Tdat and Kush Tracey
Timmy Tdat and Kush Tracey
Kush Tracey and Timmy Tdat were so tight that they didn’t even give each other space to fart. The way they followed each other everywhere any relationship expert could tell they were deemed for doom.
The lack of breathing space eventually led to Timmy and Kush’s breakup, and it happened at 1824 pub on Langata Road.
Apparently Timmy got physical after suspecting that Kush Tracey was cheating on him with a politician. The rapper was roughed up after he beat Tracey at the club, and that marked the end of Timmy and Kush Tracey’s love story.
“There was some misunderstanding that took place outside 1824 that lead to Timmy getting physical with me and that made the taxi drivers outside 1824 take part and try stop him. However I forgive him and am moving past that. The love affair with Timmy is no more only entertainment business aye!!” Kush Tracey said following the altercation at 1824.
Even pretty women like Betty Kyallo have been dumped and probably felt desperate or rather annoyed that one guy can leave you feeling like your whole world has come down crashing without even a ‘Notice.’
The renown news anchor recently opened up about her high school boyfriend that dumped her a few months after she was involved in an accident that left her face scarred.
Speaking during an interview with KU TV, Kyallo opened up about the accident that happened to her back in 2003 when still in High School and went on to talk about her high school sweetheart that left her hanging. She said,
“It happened in 2003 I was in form 3. You can imagine you are 17 years and you loose half of your face. It was really devastating….I was in hospital for about 2 and a half months, I went through 7 surgeries because my ribs and jaw were broken.”
She went on to talk about the reason why her boyfriend dumped her back in high school and why she never took it the wrong way.
” I remember the guy I was dating that time in high school… he dumped me…he left,..I mean it’s life…I don’t blame him..imagine your pretty chic all of a sudden she is not pretty… Half of her face is a scar.”
So far she is still rolling solo and does not seem interested in settling down now that her marriage with Dennis Okari is done.
Netizens were stunned to find out that Betty Kyallo had been engaged one more time. The KTN anchor who is currently on holiday in Asia talked about her engagement to set the record straight.
Betty Kyallo is still married to Dennis Okari, we haven’t of any divorce petition filed in court to dissolve her marriage with the NTV journalist.
So how come Betty is engaged again? A Facebook page has made tongues to wag after it broke news about Betty’s recent engagement.
It turned out that the Facebook page which has over 340k likes was just another parody page that uses Betty Kyallo’s name for personal gains and to cause unnecessary excitement.
Betty dismissed news about her engagement when she was contacted by Word Is, she also made it clear that the page wasn’t her.
“Engagement? That’s a fake page. That has many followers,” Betty Kyallo responded when she was asked about her engagement.
Betty Kyalo and Dennis Okari’s baby is undeniably adorable and from the new photos, baby Ivanna is slowly growing into a fine young girl.
Though her parents split a few months after their glamorous wedding, the two media personalities have been co-parenting something practiced by most parents from this generation.
Anyway, I recently bumped into a few photos of baby Ivanna that have left me thinking that she looks more like her daddy than her mum. Her facial structure and her smile clearly confirms that she is Dennis Okari’s baby though she got her eyes from her mum.
Ivanna is undeniably beautiful and even though she looks more like her daddy, I am pretty sure she will get her mum’s features when she hits teenage hood. Checkout her photos below.
Betty Kyallo didn’t take it lightly that someone linked her to Mombasa governor Hassan Joho even after she declared that she was a ‘free spirit’.
The beautiful KTN anchor was in a jovial mood when she took to Instagram to reveal that she was a free spirit – she didn’t mind whatever status people associate her with.
“Single, Taken who cares, I’m awesome! ? #FreeSpirit,” Betty captioned a photo she posted online.
While most people were appreciating her beauty, critics used the opportunity to throw mud at her – some taunted her by dragging Hassan Joho’s name into the conversation.
A certain Sammymstepper wrote “001” on the comment section and Betty Kyallo decided give him a taste of one’s own medicine.
Betty redirected him to the official Instagram handle of Mombasa governor – Hassan Joho.
sammymstepper: 001
bettymuteikyallo: @sammymstepper let me redirect you at no cost to the handle you are looking for @Joho_001 you are welcome??
Betty’s action lit up Instagram as her fans commended her for hitting back at Sammymstepper in a clever way.

There is a lot that has been said since she walked out on her husband, Dennis Okari who also happens to be her baby daddy. She was believed to be dating a renown politician who was said to have changed her lifestyle with the expensive lifestyle he introduced her to…however, she recently denied being involved with him saying people can can believe what they want during an interview with popular tabloid.
Betty Kyallo
Anyway, Betty this past weekend shared a selfie on her gram but what caught my attention is her caption. Judging from what she wrote, the KTN news anchor did not really care what people say about her as she thinks she is awesome whether she is single or dating…bottom line is, she is happy and thatis all she needs.
Single, Taken who cares, I’m awesome! ?#FreeSpirit
KTN anchor Betty Kyallo cruises in a top of the range German machine that is owned by Mombasa Governor Ali Hassan Joho.
Sometimes in February 2017, it was revealed that Betty Kyallo owned the Porsche Cayenne KCG 001J which was parked at Standard Group headquarters on Mombasa Road.
Well, Ghafla! can now authoritatively say that the Porsche Cayenne KCG 001J is owned by Joho Ali Hassan. This was confirmed after verifying the vehicle’s legal ownership/registration on NTSA and KRA platforms.
According to the information derived from KRA, the Porsche Cayenne was manufactured in 2015 – so there is a high probability that Hassan Joho bought a brand new SUV and gave it to Betty Kyallo.
Joho and Betty Kyallo are rumored to be secret lovers, the Sultan was said to the reason why Betty’s marriage to Dennis Okari crumbled.
Meanwhile the Mombasa governor also owns a Rolls Royce KBR 001R. This information was revealed to the public when KRA moved to court on March 30th seeking the prohibitive order against Governor Joho claiming that he had evaded paying tax.
The court heard that despite declaring nil tax returns, Joho is the registered owner of two high-end motor vehicles, a Rolls Royce KBR 001R and a Porsche Cayenne KCG001J (the one Betty Kyallo drives).
Justice Hedwig Ong’udi of the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes Division of the High Court barred Joho from accessing Kes37 million held at Stanbic Bank until KRA completed a tax returns assessment.
Joho’s woes have however been attributed to his clash with President Uhuru Kenyatta, the head of state vowed to punish him after the Mtongwe incident.
