“I’m Number 6”: 28-Year-Old Woman Discovers Husband’s Secret Baby Mamas at Burial. A Nightmare Unfolds

Brenda Wawire, a 28-year-old single mother from Nairobi, had always believed in the power of love, prayer, and forgiveness. Even after catching her husband cheating more than once, she chose to fast and pray, hoping he would change. But nothing could prepare her for what she was about to discover at a family burial. 

Brenda’s heartbreaking story began when her husband’s sister passed away. She thought it was just another emotional family tragedy, but it turned into the worst day of her life. She traveled with her own sister to attend the burial, hoping to finally meet her husband’s family. Shockingly, it was her first time visiting his rural home, even after living with him for a year. 

“I had never been to his home. I didn’t know his parents, and I had never met any of his relatives. My sister kept asking me how I could live with someone for so long without knowing such basic things,” Brenda told TUKO.co.ke. 

Brenda initially refused to go. But after her sister insisted several times, she agreed. She had no idea that what waited for her at the burial was not comfort, but a complete breakdown of her world. 

As they arrived at her husband’s homestead, Brenda saw him sitting silently, watching them. “There was no emotion on his face. No welcome, no hug. He didn’t even greet me,” she recalled.  

She had expected a warm reception from her in-laws, at least a sign that she was part of the family. But instead, she was treated like a stranger. 

At the burial, Brenda began hearing whispers. Groups of women were discussing her husband’s other relationships. At first, she ignored them. But the gossip kept getting louder and more detailed. Some women even listed the number of children he had with different women. Her heart sank as she realized they weren’t lying. 

“I overheard women talking about how he had many wives and several children with different women. I thought I was special. But at that moment, I realized I was just one of many,” she said. 

The final blow came when her husband introduced her to guests, not as his wife, but simply as “the mother of my child.” Brenda was shocked. This man she had defended, fasted for, and loved deeply could not even honor her as his wife in front of his own family. 

“I was so disgusted. I sat there thinking, ‘Who have I been living with? Who have I trusted with my life and my heart?’ I knew there was no future left. I left that evening to stay with my mum. I was done,” she added. 

Brenda now understands that ignoring red flags can lead to heartbreak. “All the signs were there, but I kept hoping for change. I now know I was the sixth woman. And maybe not even the last,” she admitted. 

Her story has touched many people online, with social media users offering support, while others use it as a cautionary tale about modern relationships and blind loyalty. 

Interestingly, while Brenda’s story exposed the pain of betrayal, another story involving Kennedy Rapudo and his baby mamas surfaced at the same time. Unlike Brenda’s husband, Rapudo publicly acknowledged having three baby mamas and proudly co-parents with all of them. 

During a TikTok Live session with his daughter, one of Rapudo’s baby mamas, Veronicah, praised him for being drama-free and responsible. She mentioned how he takes care of his children and respects all the mothers of his kids. The contrast between Rapudo and Brenda’s husband couldn’t be more stark. 

While Brenda’s experience shows the pain of secrets and lies, Rapudo’s case proves that men can be honest and responsible if they choose to be. Brenda’s journey is a wake-up call for many women who stay in toxic relationships hoping for change. 

Now, Brenda is focusing on herself and her child. She is determined to rebuild her life from the ground up, stronger and wiser. “This was the lesson I didn’t ask for but needed. I won’t ignore the signs again. My peace is now the most important thing,” she concluded.
