Self-declared forex trader Kenyan Prince has responded to the social media storm following his appearance at the Summer Tides festival in Malindi.
The online figure caused a buzz after he was spotted with another woman while his long-term girlfriend, Stephanie Ngunjiri, was reportedly away in Dubai.
A Weekend of Speculation
The controversy began when videos surfaced online on July 6. The clips showed Prince sitting side by side with an unidentified woman.
One particular video captured the two drinking together before Prince was seen being physically affectionate. The footage quickly went viral, leading fans to speculate about the status of his relationship with Stephanie.
Following the widespread debate, Prince took to TikTok to address those judging his actions. In the video, he conceded that people have imperfections while criticising the public's reaction.
He addressed his critics directly, stating: "Y'all keep judging us and you are way worse than us." He continued by telling his followers: "Anyway, focus on your life. Focus on building yourself.”
Life and Flaws
The response video served as a defiant message to his detractors. Prince appeared to dismiss the gravity of the circulating clips.
"So don't judge us," he said. "Everybody has their own flaws." He concluded his thoughts on the matter by saying: "And guys, that is what is called life."
Background of the Relationship
This is not the first time the couple has faced public scrutiny. Prince and Stephanie Ngunjiri have a history of public breakups and reconciliations. Despite past cheating allegations, the couple has previously maintained that they are together to stay.
Stephanie was a no-show at the Malindi festival, as she had remained in Dubai and did not travel for the event. On Tuesday, she deactivated her Instagram page minutes after Kenyan Prince went public on his Instagram stories posting a heartbreak emoji.
Even amidst the personal drama, Prince used the platform to promote his business interests. After addressing the controversy, he immediately pivoted back to his professional life.
"Anyway, actually join my Telegram and start trading now," he told his viewers.
The Summer Tides festival, which attracted huge crowds with music and entertainment, continues to be a talking point following the appearance of various high-profile figures.
While the public jury remains out on Prince’s recent behaviour, the trader seems intent on moving forward with both his relationship and his business.
