Carol Kim, the second wife of popular Akorino gospel musician Karangu Muraya, recently clapped back at a fan who urged her to get pregnant. The incident unfolded just days after rumors surfaced that her co-wife, Triza Njeri, was expecting a child. The comment, which was left under one of Carol’s social media posts, seemed to touch a nerve, prompting a sharp and unapologetic response.
The fan had casually remarked, “Cousin ata sisi tunataka tukuone na mimba,” suggesting that Carol should consider getting pregnant as well. In true Carol fashion, she responded swiftly and with fire: “Mkiwa na nani? Am I in a competition with anyone?” Her message made it clear that she was not about to let societal pressure or online opinions dictate her personal choices.
Carol has built a reputation for responding fiercely whenever fans cross the line with intrusive or judgmental comments. A few days before this pregnancy comment, she had also addressed a fan who asked whether she was aware that Triza, her co-wife, had been hospitalized. Carol dismissed the question with disinterest, implying she was not one to engage in gossip or fuel drama.
Despite being part of a polygamous setup, Carol and Karangu have maintained a strong public bond. They have been together for over a year, and Carol often shares inspirational posts on her social platforms. One of her recent posts encouraged followers to embrace their healing journey and let go of the past. “Let this be your reminder: You owe nothing to the past that no longer serves you. Move on boldly. Heal loudly. And live freely,” she wrote.
Her empowering messages and classy demeanor have won her support from many fans, especially women who admire her resilience. After her clapback at the pregnancy comment, several followers backed her up, praising her boldness and dismissing the fan’s remarks as inappropriate. Comments ranged from humorous jabs to full-on support, with fans lauding Carol’s ability to stand up for herself without losing composure.
Carol is believed to be a mother of one, a daughter named Arianna. She has previously referred to Karangu as Arianna’s father, although it remains unclear whether they co-parent the child full-time. Their blended family setup has occasionally drawn public attention, especially after Triza claimed that her children, who live with their father and stepmother, were being forced to refer to Carol as their mother—a situation she strongly opposed.
Nonetheless, Carol has continued to focus on her life and ventures. Besides influencing on social media, she has dabbled in business and remains active in promoting positivity and self-love. Her fans admire her for maintaining her composure and responding to criticism with grace and sharp wit. Her latest exchange serves as yet another example of her unwillingness to conform to societal expectations just to fit in or prove a point.
