She is smart, sassy so it’s hard to imagine anyone laying a hand on Anne Kiguta. The TV star’s tough girl act could be as a result of  domestic abuse. She describes in an interview with True Love magazine that her boyfriend started beating her before she made her debut on KTN. She was left with scars on her face and had to cover them up with make-up. Before she had her first Prime Time appearance, she had to go to hospital and record a statement at the police station. But despite her harrowing experience she killed it on her debut. If that’s not a fighter. I dunno who is!

4. Cynthia Nyamai

Makuyu and the former KTN news anchor got married in 2007, but divorced three years later leaving tabloid-worthy scandals in their wake. Cynthia Nyamai had no qualms speaking about her divorce from one Makuyu, whom she accused of being a quintessential womanizer and being violent; this was on an interview with Drum Magazine. Makuyu on the other hand shat on her claims in an interview with K24’s Faraja claiming that Cynthia was the one with wandering eyes. This was after he refuted his ex-wife’s account that he was a violent Casanova.

5. Lillian Muli

For a long time,there were allegations that there was trouble in the Lillian-Kanene forte, that the two had called it quits over what was said to be alleged unfaithfulness between the two.

She however denied it during an interview with True Love Magazine where she disputed claims of separation saying that “We are not divorced or separated as purported by the media. I have been married for 4 years now. Why would I still go by his name if we were not together? I’m the type of person who would just drop it”

She however dropped the ball during an interview with Jeff Koinange who was promoting his book ‘Through My African Eyes’. When the book signing time came, Jeff asked who the book should be signed to .“Can I write Kanene?” Jeff asked. To which Lillian swiftly and sweetly replied, “No, Muli’s just fine.”

We are all familiar with the Arunga-Timberlake drama that ended up with one of their children dead. This is the most chilling case of them all! It is said that her husband Quincy killed their son as he was trying to exorcise ‘demonic embryos’ from his stomach.

The son was hurled against a wall after repeatedly being punched in the stomach. He was then given a bath and sent off to bed. He thereafter died and Esther was charged with  being an accessory to murder.Apart from killing her son, Quincy also killed off Esther Arunga’s prolific career on TV.
