Milly wa Jesus was visibly upset during a roast comedy show where her husband, Kabi, became the butt of harsh jokes revolving around his controversial past. The couple attended the popular “Hot Seat” show where celebrities sit through ruthless comedic takes on their lives. However, things took an uncomfortable turn when jokes about Kabi’s past relationship with his cousin and the child they share began to dominate the show.
In a trending video, comedians are seen making Kabi the subject of relentless jabs, many of which referenced the sensitive incident from 2021 where he was found to have fathered a child with his cousin after initially denying it. One of the comedians quipped that Kabi misunderstood the venue’s mention of “cuisine” as “cousin” — a joke that left the audience laughing but visibly hurt Milly, who covered her face in apparent discomfort.
Another comic went as far as making fun of Kabi’s daughter, wondering aloud what she calls him, while mocking his role as a father. The night’s jokes not only touched on the scandal but also his career, painting him as someone who rose to fame without any discernible talent. “What warms my heart the most is seeing someone become this successful without talent,” a comedian said, taking a jab at his influencer career.
Milly’s reactions during the show were telling. At some moments, she hid her face, while Kabi himself seemed caught between awkward laughter and visible discomfort. As the jokes piled on, the tension in their corner of the room grew more evident. Social media users quickly took to the comment sections to express their thoughts, with many sympathizing with Milly. Some labeled the jokes as disrespectful, while others questioned the ethics of dragging such a sensitive topic back into the spotlight.
“Milly looked heartbroken,” one commenter said, while another added, “That was embarrassing — not just for Kabi, but mostly for Milly.”
This isn’t the first time the couple has had to navigate public scrutiny. The scandal involving Kabi and his cousin remains one of the most talked-about stories in their past. Though Kabi had initially denied the claims, DNA tests confirmed he was the father. Since then, the couple has tried to move forward, sharing their family life on social media and building their brand.
In past interviews, Milly has opened up about the difficulties they’ve faced while navigating co-parenting with Kabi’s cousin. She admitted that the situation was emotionally taxing and once revealed there were legal proceedings underway to sort out parenting arrangements. Despite the rocky circumstances, she expressed hope that they would one day achieve a peaceful co-parenting relationship, keeping the wellbeing of the child at the center.
Yet, despite all efforts to move on, moments like the comedy roast bring the couple’s painful past back into the public sphere, forcing them to relive moments they’d rather keep private. For Milly, the night wasn’t just about jokes — it felt like a public humiliation. And for many watching, the line between comedy and cruelty was clearly crossed.
