Edday Nderitu in late July 2023 announced that her marriage to Samidoh was over, saying she left him for Karen Nyamu.
The mother of three, who moved to the US with all her children in early May 2023, said in a post on social media that she was not in a polygamous marriage as she had left her husband to ‘whoever needed him more’.
“Lemmie clarify few things that were shared online and not accurate…… I am not in any polygamous marriage as stated I left the husband for whoever needed him more.
“I made a decision to remove myself and my kids from that toxic environment especially my teen daughter who unfortunately is direct recipient of unbelievable behavior displayed …
“I have managed to sustain my kids needs so far with no help and I am not regretting any bit of it. About communication and video calls I will leave that one there since some people seems to be present when that is happening but I’m not aware.”
“In this new season of my life I don’t need any drama, I need peace only ,I hope next episode of this series my name will be left out. nothingbutprayers #powerofprayers,” Edday wrote on Facebook.
Samidoh responded to Edday’s announcement days after she posted the same on social media.
The Mugithi singer said his estranged wife’s announcement was only for seeking attention since she didn’t address him privately.
Edday, who is hosted by Samidoh’s cousin Bernice Saroni, is now pursuing a driving course in the US with the aim of securing a job afterwards.
“She has already pursued and completed a driving course,” a source close to Edday said.
The source added that Edday is seriously considering remaining in the USA for a considerable amount of time, which is the reason she removed her kids from Kenyan schools.
