Nominated Senator Karen Nyamu is currently in the United States for work and to spend time with her brother’s family. Her visit coincided with that of her ex-partner, musician Samidoh Muchoki, who was also in the US visiting his family. Despite their split in 2024, Nyamu has continued to face reminders from fans about her past relationship with Samidoh, with some followers humorously bringing up the timing of their trips abroad.
One fan took a playful jab at Nyamu, recalling how she used to criticize them while traveling in the US with Samidoh. The fan pointed out that Samidoh was visiting his wife, Edday Nderitu, and their three children, and lamented that Nyamu and Samidoh would not get a chance to see each other. In response, Nyamu lightheartedly told the fan that she could still dish out insults, this time because of her current partner.
Nyamu’s current relationship remains private, as she has been careful to keep the identity of her new partner under wraps. She has also expressed a desire to have more children with those she dates. Nyamu is already a mother of three — two daughters and a son — and has spoken about possibly expanding her family.
In the past, Nyamu has had two significant relationships that resulted in children: with DJ Kevin Saint and with Samidoh. She maintains a peaceful co-parenting relationship with DJ Kevin Saint, despite their previously troubled relationship. Kevin had once described their time together as toxic, noting that both often came home late from their respective work commitments, which added strain to their bond.
After parting ways amicably with Kevin, Nyamu moved on with Samidoh, the Mugithi star. She and Samidoh have two children together — a boy and a girl. Recently, Nyamu has hinted at ongoing challenges in co-parenting with Samidoh following their breakup, emphasizing that both need time to heal.
Though the chapter with Samidoh is firmly closed, the public spotlight on Nyamu means she often receives unsolicited comments about her past. Despite this, she continues to focus on her work and family, navigating her personal life with resilience and a sense of humor.
