Murugi Munyi: I've been cancelled so many times, it doesn't bother me

You can never be sure what will come out of Murugi Munyi’s mouth. She speaks without filters. She has become accustomed to trending for what many consider to be controversial statements. 

Just a few days ago, while on her podcast, The Messy In-Between (TMI), the mother of three shared a sexual escapade from her past that had her trending on X.

"There was a guy I dated once, and all our dates were at the club. Every single time, we had sex in the club bathrooms. We would just meet at the club and do it every single time," she revealed.

The influencer first came into the limelight thanks to a cheating scandal involving both her and her husband.

Having a financially stable man offers financial security. He financially takes care of me and my needs.  

There is money in content creation. I wouldn’t know how much exactly I made last year, but my assistant tells me the figure is about Sh10 million. But that doesn’t mean I make money every month. There are dry months when companies and brands are not spending or don’t have their budgets out yet.

You could make Sh200,000 this month and probably go dry the next, then make Sh1.3 million the month after, then next you do Sh400,000, and so on. 

A brand I wouldn’t work with, even if they are to pay me tons of money, is any android manufacturer. Reason is, it won’t be believable because I have always been outspoken of how much I love and enjoy using iOS gadgets. I would never be an influencer to a product I don’t use.

I have been canceled so many times that it no longer bothers me. Only God can cancel me, the rest can make all the noise they want.

I had my first child at 19. I was already a single mother when I met my husband, Zack, with whom together we have two children.

We met in February 2015, started dating in March Shortly after I quit my job at BAT in July and got engaged in August. December was ruracio and in March 2016, we married.

Why would I need to waste time getting married? A year was good enough (to make that decision). I was already a single mother and as a single mum you can see red flags from a mile away.

Having my first child at 19 wasn’t an oops; I intentionally tried for that baby. I was madly in love with the guy and felt having a baby would solidify our love.

If I had a chance to be 19 again, I would do it because I love my 14-year-old son. I always say he is a blessing who was born of a mistake. It was obviously a mistake to think at 19, having a baby was a great idea.

I had all my children via C-section, I love myself too much I wasn’t going to have them through natural child birth, I need to enjoy my V, have it intact. You know what I mean...

About the cheating scandal, we separated because the situation was causing us so much stress that it was difficult to be around each other in a respectful manner. We however got back together after two weeks. We talked and sought therapy.

The situation taught us that whatever we had can end in a moment. Sometimes it is so easy to take the person you are with for granted. Zach and I are best friends.

My biggest lesson was to stop tagging my husband on my Instagram posts because that’s where the problem began. 

A lot of people are still angry Zack and I are still together. Some even DM me and tell me they know we pretend to be happy. Good for them.
