In an interview with Jeff Kuria, she clarified:
“My career didn’t affect my marriage. I was fully committed as a wife and mother. I had my first child in 2010. My eldest is 14, and my youngest is nearly 8. When I met my husband, I was already well-known, so fame wasn’t the reason for our separation.”

Maya admitted that the initial months post-separation were challenging.
“The first six months were tough—I cried, and so did the kids. I talked to them often to help them adjust. It wasn’t easy, but God guided me through it. We separated four years ago.”

She praised her ex-husband for his involvement in their children’s lives.
“We co-parent because he loves his children. Though we’re no longer together, they’ve never felt his absence. I respect him as their father.”

Regarding her relationship status, she revealed:
“I’ve been single for my children’s sake. I didn’t leave my marriage to jump into another. I met my ex-husband at 19, married at 20, and had my first child at 22.”

Her advice to Kenyans?
“Stay grounded. It will help you face the challenges life throws at you. Also, get to know yourself.”

Maya has starred in shows such as Pray and Prey and Faithless, and she is also a voice-over artist.

With her outstanding portrayal of Maya, the star of the adored Tabasamu TV series, Kenyan actress Rosemary Waweru won over Kenyan viewers in the late 2000s.

She continued to be a well-known personality in the entertainment sector for many years before stepping away.

After disappearing for almost 15 years, Rosemary has now surfaced and opened up about her personal life, particularly her marriage.

Rosemary was open and honest in an interview with Buzz Central about her career path, her marriage, and the difficulties she encountered.

She disclosed that she began dating at the age of 20, and that the relationship eventually resulted in marriage and the birth of two lovely daughters.

Despite the appearance of a solid marriage, she and the father of her children split up two years ago when things didn’t go as planned.

“It was a relationship that began when we were very young.

I wouldn’t say it was a bad marriage; in fact, it was good for the time it lasted. People change and evolve, and we were no exception. Our paths diverged, and we found ourselves growing apart. It’s not a matter of blame; we were just two individuals who had grown in different directions.”

Rosemary stressed that her ex-husband isn’t a bad guy in this story despite the difficulties they had.

She also recognized the value of development and how it may alter relationships in unexpected ways.

“It’s important to recognize that we both contributed to our journey, and it’s equally important to acknowledge that it’s not about casting blame. Life simply took us on separate paths.”

The actress claimed that both she and her ex-husband made it a point to continue to be involved and active parents in their kids’ lives.

“Telling our children about our separation wasn’t easy.

But we’re both committed to being present parents, even though we’re no longer together. Our love for our children transcends our personal circumstances.”

Right now, Rosemary is concentrating on her own recovery and rediscovery.

“The first year was a period of healing and self-discovery for me. Now, I’m relishing the time with my family and dedicating myself to my career. As for dating, I’m not actively seeking it right now. If the universe has other plans for me, I’ll embrace them in due time,”
