Rapudo explains why he’s too scared to get Amber Ray a co-wife

Posted on by Ozymandias

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo has addressed ongoing speculation about his marriage to socialite Amber Ray, firmly dismissing the idea of introducing a co-wife.

Speaking during a recent podcast interview with Alex Mwakideu, Rapudo weighed in on the recurring public debate around polygamy and modern relationships.

No plans for polygamy

Rapudo made it clear that expanding his marriage is not something he is considering, saying he is fully content in his relationship with Amber Ray, whom he has been with for four years.

“In my house, I don’t think that can happen. Amber Ray can handle me. I’m completely satisfied with her,” he said.

He added that relationships require intentional commitment, noting that if he ever felt the need to pursue someone else, he would rather end the relationship than attempt a polygamous setup.

Changing relationship dynamics

Rapudo also reflected on how relationship structures have evolved over time. He pointed out that while older generations often embraced polygamy within more rigid family systems, today’s relationships are marked by frequent separations and blended family arrangements.

According to him, formal polygamy is becoming less common among younger people.

“I don’t know much about polygamy. Our parents were mostly in such setups, but in this generation, I haven’t seen young people openly practising it. Maybe side relationships exist, but not officially,” he said.

His remarks come amid ongoing conversations about marriage, commitment, and shifting cultural norms in modern society.

“It’s Just Business”: Kennedy Rapudo Defends Amber Ray’s Career As A Club Host

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo has stepped up to defend his partner, Amber Ray, amid a brewing online debate regarding her frequent appearances as a professional club host. Speaking in an interview on Tuesday, April 21, 2026, Rapudo dismissed the stigma surrounding the nightlife industry, describing the role as a highly lucrative and often misunderstood profession.

Professionalism Over Assumptions

Rapudo emphasized that Amber Ray’s career was well-established long before their relationship began. He clarified that her role is centered on brand appearance and guest engagement, rather than the negative stereotypes often projected by social media critics.

“When I met Amber, she was hosting. That was her job,” he stated. “She goes there, stays for a short time, interacts with people, and leaves. That is a job, and there is nothing wrong with it.”

According to Rapudo, the work is strictly time-bound and professional, noting that her status as one of Kenya’s most sought-after influencers makes her a high-value asset for event organizers.

High Demand and Global Standards

Addressing her financial success in the sector, Rapudo revealed that Amber Ray ranks among the highest-paid club hosts in the country. He argued that her influence and ability to draw crowds make her a legitimate business player in the entertainment industry.

  • Business Logic: He likened the role to any other corporate or entertainment booking, where a public figure is paid for their presence and influence.

  • Economic Impact: He noted that her popularity allows her to work with various clients across different industries, proving her versatility as a businesswoman.

Calling Out the Double Standards

Rapudo was particularly critical of the “double standards” applied to female entertainers in Kenya. He pointed out that while global celebrities are often praised for their lifestyle choices and nightlife ventures, local women often face harsh moral judgment for the same activities.

“Public figures are often accepted abroad for similar lifestyle choices but judged locally,” he remarked.

Supporting an Independent Partner

The businessman concluded by reaffirming his unwavering support for Amber’s autonomy. He described her as a disciplined, independent woman who understands her brand. Rapudo maintained that his role is not to “change” her or interfere with her established career, but rather to provide a supportive environment as she continues to grow her business empire.

“My role is to support her as long as she is not doing anything wrong,” he added, signaling that the couple remains unbothered by the court of public opinion.

Kennedy Rapudo Opens Up on Multi-Million Gifts and Life in the Public Eye

Posted on by Ozymandias

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo, widely recognized as the husband of socialite Amber Ray, has revealed just how much he has spent on a partner—figures reaching as high as KSh 15 million.

The revelation came during an interview with content creator Mr Mombasa, where Rapudo discussed his businesses, financial journey, and life under the spotlight.

A Lavish Confession

When pressed about the most expensive gift he has ever bought a woman, Rapudo estimated the amount at between 10 million and 15 million.

“I think it was buying a house or a car, I don’t remember. I have ever bought a woman a car,” he said.

He later emphasized that his wife is at the center of such gestures, describing Amber Ray in a single phrase as “the love of my life.”

Wealth, Discipline, and Lifestyle

Rapudo also shed light on his financial discipline, confidently asserting that he has “never been broke.”

While many fans have urged him to consider politics, he dismissed the idea, stating he is content running his businesses.

To illustrate his wealth, Rapudo revealed that the luxury vehicle he currently drives is worth about KSh 15 million.

He attributed his success to discipline:

“Everything you do takes discipline. As long as you’re disciplined, everything will work on its own.”

On Public Scrutiny

The interview also touched on infidelity in celebrity circles. Rapudo observed that while cheating is widespread, public figures face harsher judgment because they are constantly under watch.

“There are a lot of eyes on you as a public figure, so it’s easier for people to notice when you slip,” he said.

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Kenyan socialite Amber Ray has shared a cryptic post on social media, sparking renewed speculation about her relationship with businessman Kennedy Rapudo, just days after he publicly dismissed breakup rumors.

In an Instagram story on Monday, September 1, 2025, Amber reflected on the importance of not losing oneself in a relationship.

“One thing life taught me the hard way is never to attach yourself too tightly to anything, not even your own children,” she wrote. “Love deeply, give your best, nurture with all your heart… but never to the point of losing yourself. Because when you stay whole, you show up better for everyone you love.”

Rapudo’s Defense of Their Relationship

Her post comes shortly after Kennedy Rapudo addressed the breakup rumors, assuring fans and friends that the couple was doing fine. He dismissed the claims as baseless gossip from people seeking attention.

“I have been getting calls and messages from friends worried about the gossip online. But let me say there’s nothing to worry about,” he said. “The internet has always been a playground for empty debes shouting nonsense for attention.”

Rapudo asserted that the couple’s decision to keep their lives private was intentional, and that “their silence clearly disturbs the broke and bitter.”

The cryptic exchange between the couple adds another layer to their public lives, which have been under close scrutiny, especially after Amber Ray recently made headlines for buying herself a new Range Rover.

Kennedy Rapudo Dispells Rumours Of Losing Weight Due To ‘Break-Up’

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo has set the record straight on his recent weight loss and the ongoing rumors about a breakup with social media influencer Amber Ray.

In an interview with radio host Ankali Ray, Rapudo clarified that his weight loss is a result of a conscious health journey, not a breakup. He explained that he has been working to manage his hypertension and has been advised by his cardiologist to lose weight.

“Where have they seen I’ve lost weight?” Rapudo said. “When you gain weight, it’s a problem—they say you eat too much, you are lazy. When you go to the gym to cut weight, it’s also a problem.”

He emphasized that his health is a personal priority.

“I am a person who has hypertension, so I have always wanted to cut weight. My cardiologist has told me for the longest time that I need to work on my weight because if you have heart problems and your lipid profile is bad, you have to go to the gym.”

Dispelling Breakup Rumors

Rapudo also addressed the speculation about his relationship with Amber Ray. He insisted that unless the news comes directly from either him or Amber, all rumors are baseless.

“Have you heard me say we’ve broken up? Have you heard her say we’ve broken up?” he asked. “If you have not heard from me or her, then that is what’s important. If we had broken up, the information would come from me or from her.”

He added that family matters are private and should not be a topic for public discussion. “You can’t go public and tell everyone that we’ve disagreed or done this or that. That is our life, and we don’t want to involve people as far as it concerns.

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Socialite and entrepreneur Kennedy Rapudo has announced a significant shift in his relationship with Amber Ray, stating that the couple has decided to keep their life together private. The move, which marks a major change from their previously highly publicized dynamic, has been met with both support and skepticism from their followers.

For months, the relationship between Kennedy Rapudo and Amber Ray has been a constant subject of public fascination. Their journey, including their on-again, off-again status, public spats, and recent milestones such as the birth of their child, has been extensively documented and shared on social media platforms. This history of public display made Rapudo’s recent announcement particularly noteworthy.

Taking to his social media, Rapudo revealed that the decision to step away from the public eye was a deliberate one. He explained that he and Amber Ray now believe that privacy is essential for the health and longevity of their relationship. According to Rapudo, keeping their personal lives out of the constant glare of public scrutiny will protect their bond from external negative energy and allow them to focus on what truly matters to them as a couple.

The announcement has sparked a varied reaction online. Many of their fans have applauded the decision, seeing it as a sign of maturity and a wise move to safeguard their relationship. However, some have expressed skepticism, given the couple’s long-standing history of public displays of affection and drama.

Rapudo’s statement marks a new chapter for the couple, reflecting a growing trend among public figures to reclaim their personal lives from the constant gaze of social media. The public will now be waiting to see if they can truly maintain the privacy they now desire.

Amber Ray’s Cryptic Message Fuels Fresh Break-Up Rumours With Kennedy Rapudo

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Popular Kenyan socialite and entrepreneur Amber Ray has ignited fresh speculation about the state of her relationship with fiancé Kennedy Rapudo after posting a cryptic and melancholic message on her social media. The post has sent fans and online observers into a frenzy, with many believing it is a sign that the couple’s notoriously on-again, off-again romance has hit another rough patch.

In an Instagram story that has since gone viral, Amber Ray shared a short but poignant message: “Sometimes, the best decision you can make is to walk away, even when it hurts.” The post, which was shared without any further context or explanation, immediately sparked a wave of speculation among her followers. Known for being open about her relationships, her silence on the matter only added fuel to the fire.

The timing of the message is particularly noteworthy, as it comes just days after Kennedy Rapudo was forced to publicly address allegations that he was on a dinner date with another woman. Rapudo had taken to social media to deny the claims and clarify the situation, emphasizing his commitment to Amber Ray. However, her subsequent cryptic post has led many to wonder if his explanation was enough to quell her doubts.

The couple, who welcomed their daughter Africa earlier this year, has had a very public and at times turbulent relationship. They have broken up and reconciled on several occasions, making any hint of discord a major talking point. Fans are now debating the meaning of her post, with some expressing concern for the couple and their child, while others remain skeptical, suggesting the message may be part of a publicity stunt.

While neither Amber Ray nor Kennedy Rapudo have directly commented on the rumors of a split, the message has undoubtedly placed their relationship under a microscope. The online community is now on high alert, waiting to see if this is just another temporary misunderstanding or a sign of a more permanent separation.

Kennedy Rapudo Responds To Cheating Allegations, Leaks Chats To Debunk Rumors

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Socialite Amber Ray’s partner, Kennedy Rapudo, has publicly addressed recent allegations that he was seen on a dinner date with another woman. Taking to his social media, Rapudo vehemently denied the claims, clarifying the situation and leaking private chats to support his account.

The controversy began when a woman posted a blurry photo of herself with Rapudo, insinuating that he had taken her out. “Yesterday, I was taken to dinner by Amber’s husband. Evidence kwa kalatas,” she wrote in the post, which featured an image she had secretly taken without his consent.

In a detailed response, Rapudo explained that the encounter was a simple act of kindness that had been misinterpreted.

“I’ve stayed off social media, not because I’m blind to what’s being said, but because I’ve chosen peace over pettiness,” he wrote. “But sometimes silence just gives liars space to get comfortable. So let me make this clear: Yesterday, I was adding pressure to my tires when a group asked me to help them park. Out of nothing but basic decency, I helped.”

Rapudo further clarified that the woman’s attempt to take a selfie was met with a polite refusal. “One of them tried to take a selfie – I politely declined and even made it clear I wasn’t interested. No flirting, no exchange, nothing beyond helping. And now I’m hearing stories that I took someone to dinner?”

He expressed his frustration with how his actions were twisted, stating that such incidents make people hesitant to be kind to strangers

. “This is exactly why people withdraw. I’ve tried to be kind, respectful, and calm, but when kindness is twisted into a narrative I never wrote – I shut the door. I won’t defend myself again. If helping people is now a gateway for lies, I’ll keep my energy to myself. From here on, I move differently.”

Kennedy Rapudo Dismisses Claims Of WhatsApp Wedding Fundraising Group

Posted on by Dennis Elnino

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo has emphatically shut down rumors that he’s creating a WhatsApp group to coordinate his upcoming wedding with socialite and actress Amber Ray.

In a recent statement on his Instagram Stories, Rapudo refuted reports suggesting he was organizing a wedding committee via WhatsApp, a common practice in Kenya for pooling resources.

“Let me make it clear — there is no WhatsApp group, and there never was,” he wrote, adding a laughing emoji. “I believe in handling my responsibilities personally. My wedding is not a fundraising event.”

He added pointedly;

“If we ever do a wedding, I will never form a WhatsApp group ati mnichangie. It is something we are doing for ourselves. People should stop forming groups for weddings and ruracios.”

Rapudo’s comments came in response to unverified claims circulating on local gossip blogs. These claims suggested he had added friends and associates to a WhatsApp group not just for planning, but also for financial contributions to the couple’s highly anticipated wedding.

The rumor ignited a heated online debate, with some Kenyans criticizing the tradition of forming committees for private ceremonies, while others defended it as a form of communal support. For Rapudo, however, the idea is clearly off the table.

“I understand people love drama, especially when it involves Amber and me,” he noted. “But let’s not spread falsehoods. I’ll ask directly — not via a WhatsApp group.”

Amber Ray, whose real name is Faith Makau, didn’t issue a direct comment but reposted Rapudo’s statement on her own social media pages, signaling her clear support for her fiancé’s stance.

The couple has remained in the spotlight since rekindling their relationship earlier this year after a much-publicized breakup. Known for their glamorous lifestyle and public displays of affection, their potential nuptials have become one of the most talked-about celebrity events of the year.

While fans continue to speculate about the wedding’s date and location, Rapudo’s message is clear: he intends to walk down the aisle on his own terms — without digital committees or public contributions. When asked if their ceremony would be a public affair, Rapudo playfully responded, “Maybe we already got married, or maybe we have not,” keeping fans guessing and the gossip mills turning.

Jimal Rohosafi fires back at Rapudo, urges him to ‘check his record’

Posted on by Ozymandias

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo recently addressed his wife Amber Ray’s controversial past, attributing part of the blame to her ex-husband, Jimal Rohosafi. Rapudo criticized Jimal’s failure to take charge of his household during the widely publicized conflict involving his two wives at the time, Amber Ray and Amira.

Rapudo Holds Jimal Responsible for Past Drama

Amber Ray’s marriage to Jimal was fraught with social media disputes, particularly with his first wife, Amira. At the height of the turmoil, Amber Ray faced accusations of witchcraft.

When asked if Amber’s past controversies affected him, Rapudo dismissed the negativity, emphasizing that he chooses what to believe based on his education and exposure.

“One thing about me, when you are well-educated and exposed, you can always pick what to believe and what not to believe.”

He asserted that Amber Ray was simply in the wrong company and blamed Jimal for failing to lead his household effectively.

“Amber Ray is a good lady… She was just in a bad place, but that’s not who she is. It’s because of the company she was in.”

Rapudo further argued that the chaos could have been avoided if Jimal had exercised leadership in managing the situation.

“Whatever happened at that time, I can’t blame Amira or Amber Ray. There was a man involved. If you are a man, you are entrusted to be a leader. Whether you are a Muslim or not, you are allowed to marry four or even ten wives, but you must take responsibility. If there is a problem, you bring your house in order.”

Amber Ray Found Stability with the Right Partner

Rapudo believes Amber Ray’s transformation proves that finding the right partner makes all the difference. He credited himself for bringing stability into her life.

“Before I met Amber Ray, there was always drama surrounding her, right? But do you see that anymore? She was constantly being trolled for the wrong reasons. What matters is finding the right person. People should be very selective about who they choose to settle down with.”

He hinted that the witchcraft allegations against Amber Ray were based on a distorted narrative and suggested that she might one day reveal the full story.

“Amber Ray is not involved in witchcraft. That whole incident was very ugly. I hope that one day she will be comfortable enough to tell the truth. She has never shared her side of the story, including where that video came from. As far as I know her, she is very religious.”

Jimal’s Response

Shortly after Rapudo’s remarks, Jimal seemingly reacted with a subtle Instagram post featuring a meme of former Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta. The caption read:

“Me advising my bro after ameachwa (after being left).”

In the video, Kenyatta’s voiceover says:

“There are some people who don’t seem to get it. Unaona kama ni mali yako (You think it belongs to you). Sio yako, ni ya uma (It’s public property). And mali ya uma (public property), you are just a caretaker.”

Though Jimal did not directly mention Rapudo, many interpreted the post as a veiled response to his comments.

Jimal Claps Back

Jimal later addressed Rapudo more directly, taking a jab at him through another Instagram post.

“You think you’re a better man? Better men don’t waste time talking about other men. It just shows how idle you are. Honestly, it’s a waste of my time responding to a grifter like you. Check my records—they speak for themselves.”

Jimal and Amber Ray’s Past

Jimal is currently married to Wangari Thiong’o, with whom he shares a daughter. His past relationship with Amber Ray was often under public scrutiny, particularly due to the ongoing conflict with Amira. Amber Ray previously revealed that she was once pregnant with Jimal’s child but suffered a miscarriage.

Meanwhile, Amira eventually separated from Jimal, bringing an end to their tumultuous relationship.

Tragic Reason Behind Kennedy Rapudo’s Father’s Suicide

Posted on by Ozymandias

Amber ray’s husband, Kennedy Rapudo recently shared his deeply personal journey of grief and resilience, shedding light on how his past struggles have shaped him as a father and partner.

Growing Up Without a Father

In a candid conversation with Dr. Ofweneke, Rapudo recalled how his parents separated when he was just six years old, leaving him with a fractured relationship with his father. Attending school events without a father figure took a toll on his emotional well-being.

Kennedy Rapudo Calls Out Kenyan Men for Valuing Social Media Fame Over Family Honor

“As a boy, you look up to your father, and when you don’t see him at school events while others have their dads, it really affects you. It stayed with me for a long time, even into my upper primary years,” he shared.

He finally reunited with his father in high school, following his mother’s passing, but the encounter was bittersweet.

“When we met, I felt betrayed. He had been alive all along, but he never looked for me. By the time I reconnected with him in Form Two, my mother had already passed, so his presence didn’t change much for me,” he said.

Unfortunately, their time together was short-lived, as his father died by suicide shortly after their reunion.

“We met briefly, had a conversation, and I went back to school. Since I was studying in Migori County, I had no way of receiving news at the time. It wasn’t until we closed school that I found out he had passed. I never attended his funeral, but I later visited his grave. I didn’t grieve or cry because, to me, there was nothing left to grieve.”

Coping with Family Losses

While losing his parents was painful, it was the death of his brother that affected him the most.

“I learned to cope with pain. My mother passed, then my father died by suicide while struggling with things he never shared with me. But when my brother died years later, that’s when everything hit me. I had always been strong, but his death broke me, forcing me to finally confront my past and accept it for what it was.”

Rapudo also revealed that his only surviving maternal relative is his elder sister, from whom he was separated after their mother’s passing. His relationship with his paternal relatives remains distant.

“My sister and I were separated because I had to leave home in search of greener pastures. She was still a child at the time, living with our grandmother. We keep in touch as much as possible. On my paternal side, I have many relatives, but things are what they are.”

Lessons from His Past & Fatherhood

Despite his painful past, Rapudo has used his experiences as motivation to build a better life for his children.

“I’ve experienced both poverty and wealth, and that has driven me to work hard.”

One of the biggest lessons he has taken away is the importance of being present in his children’s lives.

Rapudo Proposes to Pay Amber Ray to Become a Stay-at-Home Wife

“I vowed to always be there for my kids, no matter what. Whether or not I’m with their mother, I will remain an active father because I understand how much an absent father can impact a child’s life.”

Blended Family with Amber Ray

Rapudo is currently in a relationship with businesswoman Faith Makau, popularly known as Amber Ray. Together, they have a blended family of four children—one from Amber’s previous marriage, two from Rapudo’s past relationships, and their youngest child together.

His commitment to providing a stable and loving home for his children is a testament to his determination to break the cycle of absentee fatherhood and ensure his children receive the love and support he longed for growing up.

Amber Ray’s Husband Kennedy Rapudo Criticizes Men Who Prioritize Social Media Fame Over Family Honor

Businessman Kennedy Rapudo, husband to socialite Amber Ray, has strongly criticized Kenyan men who prioritize social media validation at the expense of their family’s dignity.

In an Instagram post on Thursday, January 30, 2025, Rapudo expressed concern over men who, in their pursuit of online fame, fail to uphold their responsibilities, calling it a sign of weakness and poor leadership.

Rapudo’s First Baby Mama Praises Him

“Men who chase social media recognition at the cost of their family’s honor display a clear lack of strength and leadership,” he stated.

The father of three, who previously shared his regrets about having children with different women, also decried the moral decay in society, noting that people are often quick to criticize the supposedly weaker gender instead of offering support.

He emphasized that true strength lies in a man’s ability to lead his family with integrity.

“In a world where it’s easier to blame the perceived weaker gender, it’s crucial to understand that real strength comes from a man’s ability to guide his family with honor,” Rapudo affirmed.

He further advised men to focus on stability, wisdom, and protecting their loved ones rather than seeking social media approval.

“A man’s role is to bring stability and wisdom to his marriage, ensuring the well-being of those he claims to love,” he concluded.

Co-Parenting Struggles

In a July 2024 interview, Rapudo opened up about the challenges of co-parenting with two baby mamas, admitting that he wishes he had been more discerning in his younger years to have all his children with one woman.

He acknowledged that balancing relationships with multiple co-parents is difficult but emphasized his efforts to maintain harmony and grant them unrestricted access to visit their children.

The businessman also revealed that he had to seek legal intervention to secure visitation rights for one of his children, stressing the vital role a father plays in a child’s life.

“There are things I would have done differently as a father, including having all my children with one woman. But life isn’t perfect—those stories exist only in movies. I know the pain of growing up without a father, and I won’t let my kids experience that,” he declared.

Rapudo shares a daughter, Savoune, with Nairobi socialite Veronicah, while his second baby mama remains private. He is now married to Amber Ray, who proudly refers to herself as “Bibi ya Tajiri.”

Veronicah Athiga, one of Kennedy Rapudo’s baby mamas, has praised the businessman for making co-parenting an effortless experience.

Rapudo and Veronicah share a teenage daughter, Savoune, and though they are no longer together, they have built a supportive and cooperative dynamic for the benefit of their child.

Veronicah shared these sentiments during a TikTok Q&A session with her fans, accompanied by her daughter. The duo appeared cheerful, enjoying food, laughter, and music as they interacted.

When asked by a curious fan, “How is it to co-parent with Rapudo?” Veronicah, who recently revealed her dual role as a passionate baker specializing in event cakes and as a civil servant (though she refrained from elaborating), responded warmly. She praised Rapudo, stating, “He is very easy. Our co-parenting is seamless.”

She also shared her strategy for handling negativity, explaining, “I give them the silent treatment and block them. That’s how I manage. But we have shock absorbers.”

Fans were delighted to see Savoune’s lively personality, contrasting with assumptions that she is shy or introverted. Addressing the remarks, Savoune cheerfully clarified, “I look shy? I’m not shy, guys. I really am not. I talk; I talk when I’m comfortable and in safe spaces.” She then leaned affectionately on her mother while enjoying her food.

In addition to Veronicah, Rapudo has two other baby mamas. He shares a toddler named Africanah with Amber Ray, a digital content creator and nightclub hostess. His third baby mama, who remains out of the public eye, co-parents a 9-year-old son with him. However, the relationship with his third baby mama is strained, with the two frequently engaged in legal disputes.

In a past interview, Rapudo reflected on his fatherhood journey, expressing a wish to have had all his children with one woman but acknowledging the reality of his situation. “There are things I would have wanted to do differently as a father. One of them is having kids with one woman. It is what it is. Those stories only exist in movies. I know what it means to grow up without a father, and I will never let my kids experience that,” he said in an interview with Parents Magazine.

Rapudo also discussed how he fosters harmony among his three families. “We’ve built good rapport between my kids and my partner. Transparent communication is key. Kids will always be there, so you let them bond and take them for activities together. If you love someone and she has a child, don’t show distinctions between the kids. Raise them as a family,” he advised.

When asked about challenges in his role as a father and stepfather, he reflected on past legal battles concerning his son. “I didn’t anticipate the complexities. I thought it would be straightforward—this was my family, and my children could visit me. That’s why I went to court. We resolved it, and now my son can visit me anytime he wants. I’ve enjoyed every moment of it. While there may be drama from one parent or another, as long as you manage it, you’ll be fine.”

Rapudo also shared that he’s had no issues with Amber Ray’s son’s father or with Veronicah, Savoune’s mother, emphasizing the importance of maintaining peaceful co-parenting relationships.

Kennedy Rapudo Addresses Critics Questioning His Wealth

Kennedy Rapudo has fired back at critics speculating about the source of his wealth.

In an Instagram story shared on Sunday, January 5, 2025, Rapudo expressed frustration over the public’s newfound interest in his finances, contrasting it with the lack of concern during his struggles.

“No one asked about the source of my poverty when I was broke,” he stated, emphasizing that his success stems from legitimate and honest means, not illegal activities, as some have claimed.

Dismissing allegations linking him to fraudulent schemes like gold scams or ‘Wash Wash,’ Rapudo made it clear that such activities are not part of his life.

“Gold scams? Wash Wash? Those are not my lanes and never will be. I’ve never been involved in anything illegal, and I never will be. If you’re curious, ask the people actually involved or the DCI—not me,” he declared.

As a public figure, Rapudo noted that any evidence of wrongdoing would have already surfaced if the accusations were true. He attributed the rumours to jealousy and malice.

“Just because someone chooses to live a private life and keeps their finances confidential doesn’t mean they’re involved in scams. It’s amusing how people focus on others’ lives instead of their own. While they talk, I’ll continue building my life, one honest step at a time,” he remarked.

Rapudo also urged Kenyans to redirect their energy toward addressing critical national issues like poor governance and holding leaders accountable.

“Our focus should be on bad governance and holding leaders accountable, not losing sleep over a private citizen’s wealth. Let’s have a happy new year and work on personal growth and societal progress,” he concluded.

Previous Remarks on Wealth Allegations

This isn’t the first time Rapudo has addressed questions about his wealth. In a June 2023 interview with YouTuber Mungai Eve, he dismissed similar rumours as baseless theories.

“People have come up with many theories, including labeling me a ‘Wash Wash’ guy,” he said, reiterating that he lives an honest, transparent life.

“I’m not interested in Wash Wash. I don’t want to live a life under constant scrutiny. You’ll never see me associated with such activities—I live a clean life,” he added.

Rapudo shared that he prefers to keep his professional life private, with only close friends and family aware of his legitimate income sources. He noted that he would disclose his business ventures only if he ever decided to run for public office.

“My friends and family know what I do. If I ever run for political office, I’ll disclose my activities. Until then, I prefer keeping it private,” he affirmed.

Rapudo’s fiancée, Amber Ray, has also defended him, stating that he owes no one an explanation regarding his finances. The couple’s lavish lifestyle has often drawn public attention, sparking speculation about Rapudo’s wealth.

This praise follows recent denials by the couple of any breakup rumors. Recently, Rapudo suggested that Amber consider stepping back from hosting club events, even offering to cover her earnings if she chose to stay home instead. “At your age, hosting doesn’t make sense—coming back in the morning after being in clubs. How about I pay you whatever you earn, and you leave that to younger socialites? Would that work?” he asked, expressing his preference for her to avoid late-night gigs.

Amber, however, voiced her commitment to maintaining her independence and earning her own income, regardless of marital status.

“There used to be a place around Thika Road where I would go to chill and relax. I went there, and then there was Amber looking at me. That was our first encounter,” Rapudo recounted. “I went and said hi, told her I had seen her on social media and she looked beautiful. She was with someone at that time. I was also dating.”

Their next significant interaction occurred when Amber invited Rapudo to an event she organized. Amber was still in a relationship, leading to an awkward encounter.

“She invited me to a love fest at Two Rivers after a week or two. I went, thinking she was single, but I found her there with a foreigner,” he explained.

Rapudo patiently waited for two years before Amber became single again. During this time, Amber even attempted to set Rapudo up with one of her friends, indicating a clear connection between them despite the circumstances.

Posted on by Ozymandias

Kennedy Rapudo, during a segment of “Celeb Ride with 2mbili,” expressed his strong disapproval of having Andrew Kibe and Edgar Obare in his luxurious Range Rover.

Rapudo emphasized that he doesn’t know the two individuals personally, but he has issues with the way they create their content.

You are a man, and you want to spend your time talking about another man, bro, it doesn’t work like that.”

Rapudo suggested that while he appreciates the content, there should be boundaries in addressing matters. He urged for a more civil approach without resorting to insults, emphasizing the importance of conveying points in a positive and inspiring manner.

Expressing his thoughts on Kibe, Rapudo commented on the age factor and the influence Kibe may have on younger individuals, especially given that he has daughters. He encouraged a more responsible and respectful approach when addressing women.

As they get back together, Rapudo gives Amber money as an apology [Video]

Posted on by Ozymandias

John Kennedy Rapduo has been listening to Amber Ray whenever she discusses the value of money in her life. After an argument, the two are said to have briefly parted ways, and she moved out.
But six days ago, they were spotted together at her birthday celebration and when she was having her official birthday photos taken.

After that, internet users were persuaded that the two had never split up. Now, the duo has shown to their followers that they are still together.

In a bed video, Rapudo watches as Amber tries to move the cover away from her body and fill her pillows so she may sleep on the other side of him. She raises the cushions and displays astonishment at finding cash beneath them.

She breaks into a wide smile.

“Who else loves such kind of apologies ??

Amber Ray denies ditching Kennedy Rapudo for being too broke to pay rent

Posted on by Ozymandias

There have been rumors that Kennedy Rapundo’s failure to pay the rent caused Amber Ray and him to split up. Now that Amber’s desk has finally been approached by these rumors, she feels compelled to address them.

The mother of two has refuted that claim as the primary cause of their breakup. She gave an explanation on her Instagram stories, stating that their decision to split up was brought on by their disagreements. She goes on to say that although people speculate, their separation was real and not the result of clout chasing.

The social worker demonstrates that lack of money was not the cause, citing the fact that their current rent at each of their separate houses is higher than it was at their former home.

” Firstly, Ken and I separated because of our differences, not because we couldn’t keep our house afloat. And it was certainly a clout chase. I do not clout chase, especially not with personal matters. Despite most people already aware of what happened, it is still a private matter, and it is one that is being sorted out.

Second, the rent was never an issue. I moved out mid-month, and Ken did a while after. It would make no sense for him to stay in a 5-bedroom house alone. That said, the rent for both our current apartments combined far exceeds the rent we used to pay in that house. So, we never had arrears and were not kicked out.

I am not trying to justify myself, but I wouldn’t want to tarnish my reputation with false information online. And with all due respect people should mind their own business. So please have some grace and kindness, we are both human beings and have struggles just like anyone else.

The best thing to do is to have positive energy around you, and that is what I want to give and receive. In a world full of negativity and chaos, doing good to others goes a long way to making it easier. A lot can change in your life if you choose to put a smile on someone else’s face. So I hope that the positive energy I choose to give to everyone reflects back tenfold because God knows I need it.”
