It was, however, not always like that for the beautiful Manyasi, as her life was also punctuated with some of the most miserable moments at the hands of her exes.

It all started in 2013 when she passed her Kenya Certificate of Secondary Exams (KCSE) with flying colours and joined Mount Kenya University (MKU) for a Bachelor of Education degree.

"I was just a village girl, and I didn't know anything; I got pregnant within the first year and was a mum by the second year," she told TUKO.co.ke.

"My mum is widowed, and I didn't tell her until I was due. She is a retired midwife and helped me deliver my baby. I stayed with my mum and when my brother agreed to pay school fees, I went back to school with my baby," she revealed.

Manyasi locks her baby in the house

The baby's father ran for the nearest hills, and Manyasi said she had to raise her baby with the help of friends.

"I used to go with my baby to school and would leave her in the hands of my friends. Sometimes I locked her in the house after feeding her," she offered.

In 2015, Manyasi graduated and taught in six schools before finally landing a job with the Teachers' Service Commission in Turkana county. Together with her siblings, they built their mum a house.

She met the man she thought was the love of her life, and the two decided to get married.

"He didn't have a job, so I bought my own wedding dress. I always provided for our family, because I always saw my mum and sister providing," she said.

Manyasi loses 4 pregnancies

"I got pregnant in October 2015, but sadly lost the baby. I tested positive for another pregnancy but sadly lost it in December as well. I lost a total of four pregnancies and so when I got pregnant again my doctor told me to get bedrest," she disclosed.

It soon became apparent that Manyasi's husband didn't want anything to do with her older child from her university days.

Additionally, their relationship wasn't working because he had left the burden of providing for her.

"I bought him a motorcycle, and he said he can't do that job; I started a cereals business for him, but he made it fail. Later on, I started a boutique for him; sometimes I would come from Turkana, where I was teaching and would find the clothes gone but no money," she said.

"We were not compatible, but I think being raised by hardworking women made me think it was alright," she said.

Manyasi meets Mzungu boyfriend

The two went their separate ways when it became apparent that there was also some infidelity in the marriage. The fact that Manyasi had several miscarriages didn't help matters as well.

The teacher started a YouTube account teaching English, but it never picked, so she stopped and started posting about her life in the village.

"I was also told about TikTok, and so I opened an account and started posting. I don't remember who followed who but we just started talking with Simon from UK after he viewed all my videos," she said.

"He later asked me if I had a passport, and I told him no, so he sent me KSh 36000 to get one. He visited in August and did what was supposed to be done. We are now planning our future," she said.

The beauty had nothing but praise for her new man.

"I can be myself around him; the other one used to tell me to stop being kiddish whenever I danced. I can be vulnerable around him, she said. He thinks I am brave after everything I went through in a bad marriage," she said.

"If you meet someone who says they love you and want to be in a relationship, make them prove that they can love you and your kids," she said to single mums.
