Susan Kaittany Settles Sh40K Debt Amid Auction Threat to Spa

Reality TV star and entrepreneur Susan Kaittany narrowly avoided the auctioning of her Posh Palace Hair Studio and Spa over a Sh40,500 debt.

In early November, auctioneers visited the Nairobi spa to seize assets valued at over Sh500,000, following a Milimani Small Claims Court ruling against Kaittany. The court had ordered her to settle the debt owed to Stephen Murithi Mutua, owner of Blueberry Africa, for podcast production services rendered in 2023. Despite multiple payment demands, Kaittany initially failed to clear the debt.

The court’s judgment, delivered on August 1, 2024, awarded Blueberry Africa Sh40,500 plus interest at 12.5% annually from July 1, 2023, alongside legal costs of Sh15,000. By November 6, the debt had accumulated to Sh61,984 due to accrued interest.

Interfield Auctioneers issued a 7-day proclamation notice, listing attached assets including hair dryers (Sh20,000), steamers (Sh25,000), salon chairs (Sh40,000), foot spas (Sh50,000), and massage tables (Sh10,000). Kaittany also faced an additional auctioneers’ invoice of Sh38,600.

However, just before the auction deadline, Kaittany resolved the matter by issuing a cheque covering the debt, interest, and associated costs. Her legal representatives confirmed the payment had averted the auction, safeguarding the spa’s assets.

Auctioneers Target Real Housewives of Nairobi Star Susan Kaittany Over Sh40,500 Debt

Reality TV personality and businesswoman Susan Kaittany risks losing over Sh500,000 after auctioneers seized assets from her Posh Palace Hair Studio and Spa to recover a debt of Sh45,500.

The dispute stems from a judgment issued by a Milimani Small Claims Court on August 1, 2024. The court ordered Ms. Kaittany, the CEO of Posh Palace, to settle the amount owed to Stephen Murithi Mutua, proprietor of Blueberry Africa.

Mr. Mutua filed the case on February 2, 2024, accusing Ms. Kaittany of failing to pay for podcast production services provided for her *Dangerously Honest* podcast, recorded in June 2023 at the Dusit Princess Hotel. The services included recording, editing, sound design, and mixing.

According to court documents, Mr. Mutua invoiced Ms. Kaittany Sh40,500 on July 26, 2023. Despite repeated follow-ups, Ms. Kaittany allegedly ignored payment demands, even stating he could “go the legal way” if he wanted resolution. A demand letter sent in August 2023 also went unanswered.

With no defense or response filed by Ms. Kaittany, Magistrate Kiongo Kagenyo ruled in favor of Blueberry Africa. The court awarded Sh40,500 plus a 12.5% annual interest from July 1, 2023, and costs of Sh15,000, bringing the total debt to Sh61,984 by November 2024.

On November 6, 2024, Interfield Auctioneers, authorized by the court, served Ms. Kaittany with warrants of attachment and a seven-day proclamation notice at her Posh Palace premises.

Items attached for auction included salon equipment such as hair dryers (Sh20,000), steamers (Sh25,000), salon chairs (Sh40,000), foot spas (Sh50,000), massage tables (Sh10,000), and computers (Sh7,000). Additional charges of Sh38,600 for the auction process further increased the total liability.

Ms. Kaittany, a former Miss Earth Kenya (2005), gained fame on *The Real Housewives of Nairobi* in its debut season on Showmax, which aired in February 2023. However, her contract was not renewed for the show’s second season, which premiered in May 2024.

The series documented the lives of Kaittany and five other influential women, including Vera Sidika, as they balanced luxury lifestyles, careers, and relationships in Nairobi.

Real Housewives Of Nairobi Star Susan Kaitanny Responds To People Calling Her Skinny

Real Housewives of Nairobi star Susan Kaittany has clapped back at critics denigrating her for her skinny physique. The businesswoman and model came clean on how she has been body shamed a couple of times and forced to take in whatever people said about her.

She wrote a detailed message calibrating how contented she is with her body and encouraged others in the same situation to remain confident.

Another stunning look from Susan Kaittany

”As a skinny girl growing up, I was body shamed a lot through the years & its what made me step out & become a model. I became a beauty queen, represented my country ???????? for the crown & walked the runway to prove that it’s ok to have a body like mine. Even though I was hurting so deep inside.

Through the tears & the pain, I knew I had to do it to show the world that skinny is great, it’s how I was made & it’s A ok to look like me.

It’s ok to have the longest legs & a lean body a long graceful neck, & big African lips.

Pain has grown me so much & through the journey, I have become a BOLD woman. I’m back on the run way this year strutting the biggest fashion shows in the world. Im really confident, bold & sassy & as I turn 40 later this year, I’ve come full circle. It’s incredible, I’ve never felt more stunning than this. It’s indeed always a long painful journey to body positivity, don’t let anyone fool you or brush it off as nothing.

To all the little girls, to my daughters, your body is perfect my loves, tall or short, skinny or chubby. You can exercise because it’s ok to tone even when you’re skinny, & no you don’t need to eat more. You are your own kind of beautiful. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. There’s only one you, always & forever.

Body shaming happens for skinny girls & big girls & in Africa a lot more directed towards the skinny girls, There’s a lot of projecting, & Culturally it’s not ok to be skinny.

It’s interesting to observe, because I get asked what I do to stay skinny by women, joining gyms & spending the rest of their time obsessed with looking skinnier. So it’s the grass greener on the other side I suppose. There’s no winning. It’s diets & exercise, then it’s – you’re skinny, do something .. why though ?

We need to stop being tone deaf. Its not right, it’s wrong & it’s toxic. It’s damaging, we need to stop body shaming as women. Thick, thin you’re gorgeous all the same. We are us, you are you ????perfect.

Also, It’s time to celebrate the most beautiful me this year????
I am not apologetic for becoming the Queen that Iam today ???? #poshqueen ????”

Hurt

Susan further added that she was supportive of Betty when she was undergoing a lot of stress but she still betrayed her.

“I was a supportive friend. She went through the ups and downs and I was the one who was there for her. She said all the things she said and my conscience is clear. I don’t think I owe anybody an explanation. She knows it,” Susan revealed.

Betty Kyallo suspected of orchestrating the tearing down of Posh Palace’s billboards

Betty Kyallo still using underhand tactics to push Susan Kaittany out of business? Well, it isn’t the first time the KTN anchor has pulled such a move.

Posh Palace closed its doors for days after Betty poached top stylists from Susan Kaittany prior to the opening of her own spa – Flair by Betty, which is located a stone’s throw away from Posh Palace.

The KTN anchor also called police on Kaittany over claims that she had her passport after they fell out sometimes in February 2018.

Billboards

Posh Palace’s billboards have been teared down, guess who is the main suspect? A video recording shows unidentified men stripping the billboards as Flair by Betty employees cheer from their work place.

The billboards featured Susan Kaittany herself and were erected along Lenana Road which basically separates Posh Palace from Flair by Betty.

Sources close to Susan Kaittany intimate she has since reported the matter to the Kilimani police station.

 

Kaittany: I used Ksh 40 million to build Posh Palace, Betty Kyalo didn’t contribute a shilling 

Susan Kaittany is not stopping any time soon, not until the world understands her enemy, Betty Kyalo, had almost zero impact in building Posh Palace other than just hyping it.

Kaittany spoke with The Star newspaper recently opening up again on their ugly break up which led to the temporary closure of Posh Palace and Kyalo opening her own spa, Flair By Betty.

Kaittany has now revealed that though they were 50-50 partners with Kyalo, she didn’t contribute a dime into the business. Kaittany on the other hand, invested a clean Ksh 40 million.

“I met Betty Kyallo when she was planning on getting married. It was a celebrity wedding. Thereafter we sponsored the wedding, we sponsored the honeymoon to Dubai and Mauritius and after that, we became friends. And of course having done the influencer marketing with her for our events and travel company, I really wanted them to be happy. I knew that if Kenyans saw them happy then definitely it would reflect very well on our company,” she said. 

“And that is exactly what happened. So I thought the same kind of marketing would work for Posh Palace. And that is why I brought her on board. Along the way, it did not work out, unfortunately.”

Betty had to go home

Kaittany then went on to add that she had to fire Kyalo since she was becoming a liability for the business.

“I gave her that opportunity but of course, the thing about influencers is they are not used to having to give capital for anything. Or pay for anything. When you sink sh40 million into a business, really, it cannot amount to influencer marketing. Then in that case, i can afford to pay an influencer marketer sh200,000 per month for that service, if you compare it to the value of the business. So, that is why in the long run it just could not work,” She went on. 

“The cracks started showing when it became more about her than the business. Yet, I was the one doing all the hard work, putting in the capital. Over the long run the cracks would definitely show. When they did show, i said, i have to be practical, we may have had a friendship but it is business. We have to be real; we cannot hide it or pretend. That would have gone only so far.”

Kyalo

Susan, however, is not bitter. She wishes her enemy all the best.

“Everyone has their hair done, from your mother down to the nanny. So there is enough for everybody. We need to employ our marketing strategies across the board. Also, possibly, people will walk into your store, not because of somebody, but because of the services you offer,” Susan explained.

She continued:

“In the long run you realise that people don’t even know who this influencer is. It is true, because the kind of clientele i attract don’t even know [her]. I did not know who she was when my husband was introducing me to her. I don’t watch tv. And who i am is my target audience. You could be popular in Kenya but you are not relevant to my target audience unless i am selling airtime or milk to the masses. Right?”

 

Susan Kaitany after Betty Kyalo’s drama: Lack of loyalty is a thing especially here in Kenya 

They were once friends but now they are enemies. Susan Kaittany and KTN’s Betty Kyalo ruled the headlines after launching their state of the art spa Posh Palace. But less than a year on, the two are in a bitter fight after parting ways and later Kyalo starting her own spa just next to Posh Palace. She also “stole” all her employee.

But according to Kaittany, this is a normal thing in Kenya. Most people are not loyal.

“This is not my first business, lack of loyalty is a thing especially here in Kenya, not just for me , it’s for everyone, ask business people, the people who are close to you will let you down,  the peole who are close to you can even steal from you, it’s not new to me, it affirms my thoughts on like people not being loyal and believing and trusting in yourself first, people will let you down, you cannot have faith in people at all” said Kaittany in an interview with interview with Ebru TV.

She said that the market is can accommodate everyone hence there’s no reason to panic.

“The beauty industry in Kenya is over a billion, there is so much me and her is like a small fraction, even if ten people set business next to me, I will still be cool, there is enough to go around, I don’t know why people see it as, it has to be a fight or we have to have beef, there is so much, that we can even cover, I say welcome to the business join me in the journey of beauty, and discovering” she said.

Betty Kyalo

Adding:

“We have the best intention we are going into something and we want it to work. The thing is we plan but you never anticipate what is to come and happen along the way. You saw us together we were happy, but shit does happen and when it does, you gonna be really coz I don’t want to hide behind tables and chairs, am really, it’s not working so it’s not working and whatever the consequences that gonna be there after you have to face them, it didn’t work out I decided to move on, we decided to part ways and she decided to start her own business.”
