Mugithi singer Samidoh and his wife Edday Nderitu have recently attracted attention online after sharing several public moments together, signalling a close relationship months after their past marital challenges became public discussion.
The couple previously faced scrutiny after Samidoh became involved with nominated senator Karen Nyamu, with whom he shares two children.
During the height of the controversy, Edday stated publicly that she would not raise her children in a polygamous marriage, sparking widespread debate across social media platforms.
Viral Pizza Moment Captures Attention
In recent months, however, the pair have increasingly appeared together publicly. A recent video that circulated online showed Samidoh and Edday sharing playful moments during their daughter’s birthday celebration, which took place about a month ago after the singer reunited with his family for the occasion.
In the clip, Samidoh is seen teasing his wife while feeding her a slice of pizza. Each time Edday attempted to take a bite, the musician jokingly pulled the pizza away, leaving her laughing throughout the exchange.
The video generated reactions online, with many netizens commenting on the couple’s interaction and apparent closeness.

One user, Vmu.tuku, wrote:
“Love is a beautiful thing.”
Another user, Cherop, commented:
“Ukiangalia hawa hivi huwezi jua walikuwa na issues, love wins always.”
A third user, kamausteven3, joked:

Another commenter, Salim 34, wrote:
“Life is very funny especially with men and a woman who knows what she wants like Edday.”

Karen Nyamu Speaks on Breakup Claims
In September 2025, Nyamu stated publicly that she was the one who ended her relationship with Samidoh, dismissing claims that the musician had left her. The two reportedly separated in 2024 after years of an on-and-off relationship.
Responding to followers online, Nyamu questioned suggestions that she had been dumped.
“Me nakaa mtu alikataliwa? Am I the one singing Karen Nyamu’s name in all mugithis every weekend?”
She also claimed that Samidoh frequently referenced her during performances and had dedicated his song Toxic Love to her.
Nyamu further stated:
“When a woman has money, the only thing she wants is to be a single mum.”
‘Toxic Love’ and Public Speculation
In the song Toxic Love, Samidoh sings about a difficult relationship and reflects on love, heartbreak and family.
Some listeners linked the lyrics to his past relationship with Nyamu, although the singer did not directly confirm this.
Viral Kiss Revives Online Conversation
Attention surrounding the couple also resurfaced in July 2025 after a video showed Samidoh kissing Edday during a TikTok live session in the United States.
The moment happened during a family outing attended by their children and family members, including Bernice Saroni.
Following the viral clip, some followers dragged Nyamu into the conversation. One social media user asked the senator whether she had seen the kiss, prompting her to respond:
“Then when he kisses me on Friday you’ll start drama.”
