Carrol Muthoni Sonie has firmly responded to online criticism surrounding her recent weight gain.
The influencer, widely recognized as the former partner of Kenyan comedian Mulamwah, addressed the issue in a candid video that quickly generated widespread reactions on social media.
Her response came after some online users began speculating about the reasons behind changes in her body appearance. In the video, Carrol expressed frustration with the constant scrutiny, noting that she has faced criticism both when she was slim and now that she has gained weight.
“Sasa naambiwa natumia family planning juu nimenona. Nikiwa nimekonda niliambiwa niko na ukedi. Saizi sasa sijui ni family planning, ni madawa nimejidunga and I’m like eii!” she said.
Her remarks highlight the pressure many public figures face online when it comes to body image and personal choices.
Speaking Out Against Body Shaming
In the clip, Carrol appeared visibly frustrated as she explained how people continue to make assumptions about her health and lifestyle based solely on her physical appearance.
She noted that when she was previously slimmer, some critics suggested she might be unwell or dealing with health issues. Now that she appears healthier and has gained weight, others have begun claiming she may be using family planning methods or injections that allegedly influence body size.
Carrol questioned why people feel entitled to comment on women’s bodies, emphasizing that such speculation can be both exhausting and unfair.
Her statement resonated with many of her followers, who flooded the comment section with supportive messages.
Social Media Reactions
The video quickly spread across platforms such as Instagram, sparking renewed discussions about body shaming and unrealistic beauty standards online.
Many fans defended Carrol, arguing that public figures should not constantly face scrutiny over their weight or physical appearance. Others pointed out the contradiction she described, noting that women are often criticized regardless of whether they gain or lose weight.
Some supporters also encouraged her to ignore negative comments and focus on maintaining a healthy and fulfilling life.
At the same time, the discussion reflects a broader pattern where influencers and celebrities regularly face intense public scrutiny on social media.
Life After Mulamwah
Carrol Muthoni first gained widespread attention during her relationship with Mulamwah, one of Kenya’s most popular comedy creators.
Their relationship attracted significant public interest online before the two eventually went their separate ways.
Since then, Carrol has continued building her online presence through lifestyle content, personal updates, and regular engagement with her followers.
Despite the breakup, she remains a recognizable figure within Kenya’s digital entertainment scene and frequently trends whenever she shares personal experiences or addresses online controversies.
The Larger Conversation
Carrol’s response has once again reignited conversations about body positivity and online criticism, particularly for women in the public eye.
In recent years, several influencers and celebrities have spoken openly about the pressure created by social media expectations. From weight changes to lifestyle choices, public figures often find themselves defending personal matters that would ordinarily remain private.
Her candid reaction reflects a broader reality of life online—where physical appearance often becomes a topic of public debate.
For now, Carrol’s message appears clear: no matter how someone looks, critics will always find something to say.
