Sunday, January 18,
2026 - In a heartfelt conversation on the Alex Mwakideu podcast, Sarah
Mtalii opened up about the hidden struggles behind her marriage to ex-husband,
Simon Kabu.
The Bonfire Adventures co‑founder revealed that cracks began
to show in the fourth year, during her pregnancy.
Sarah disclosed that she had technically called it quits in
2013 but maintained a picture of a happily married wife for over 11 years until
her divorce came to light.
“Nilikuwa nimetoka mwaka wa 2013,” she said, noting
that while the internet saw a picture‑perfect union, the reality was far from
it.
According to her, marriage brought respect and status in
society, but also the expectation to maintain appearances.
“11 years ilikuwa cinema tu,” she admitted,
describing how they projected happiness while privately drifting apart.
Behind closed doors, the couple became “total strangers,”
living under the same roof but no longer communicating as partners.
The emotional distance, she explained, began during her
pregnancy and only deepened over time.
While society admired their marriage, Sarah said the truth
was a broken connection that could not be ignored.
Despite the pain, Sarah has embraced a new chapter.
On December 27th, 2025, she posted a video from
Nanyuki, where she appeared relaxed and radiant, subtly introducing a new man
into her life.
Captioning the clip, she wrote: “Join me in welcoming a
pillar of strength,” hinting at a fresh relationship and newfound support.
