Wednesday, August 27, 2025 - Kenyan comedian and content creator Erastus Ayieko Otieno better known as Flaqo, has finally broken his silence on the emotional rollercoaster following his split with fellow creative Keranta.
Once dubbed social media’s favorite couple, the two fueled
endless “couple goals” conversations before rumors of their breakup took center
stage online.
Speaking on the Mic Cheque Podcast, Flaqo revealed
how invasive the public chatter became, with netizens even speculating about
his bedroom life.
“At one point, I thought about proving everyone wrong the
next day at 11 a.m - just to silence the talk.”
“That’s how heartbreak makes you irrational. But thank God I
never went through with it,” he said.
The comedian admitted he struggled in silence, choosing not
to confide even in close friends.
While privately battling loneliness, he continued shooting
content and hitting the gym relentlessly, surprising many when news of the
breakup surfaced.
Recently, Flaqo also addressed backlash after repossessing a
car he had gifted Keranta.
He clarified that the vehicle was always in his name.
“A car is a convenience gift to my girlfriend, not my ex.
Once there’s an ex, there’s no car,” he explained.
However, he allowed her to keep one of his furnished houses,
joking that asking back for a fridge would have been petty.
Now, Flaqo says fitness has become his therapy, helping him
heal and move forward.
