Kenyan gospel singer Size 8 surprised her fans on Thursday by announcing the end of her 11-year marriage to DJ Mo.
The couple, known for their prominent presence in Kenya’s music scene and their openness with fans, are now parting ways. Size 8, whose birth name is Linet Munyali, shared a poignant message on her Instagram stories, revealing the dissolution of her marriage. She expressed her faith in God’s sovereignty despite the end of her relationship and affirmed embracing her new journey as a single lady. This revelation has sent shockwaves through her fanbase and elicited a range of reactions from supporters.
The announcement is met with a mix of disbelief, sadness, and scepticism from followers. Some question whether this could be a publicity tactic, given the trend among celebrities to make sensational statements for attention. Interestingly, Size 8 had recently shared optimistic posts about the month of August, anticipating positive changes in her life. This upbeat outlook stands in contrast to her subsequent announcement about her marriage. Size 8 and DJ Mo, legally named Samuel Muraya, have been a beloved couple in Kenya’s entertainment landscape.
Their relationship, including their two children and family life, has been a subject of public interest, partly due to their reality TV show. This intimate glimpse into their lives has made the news of their separation all the more startling to fans. The couple’s relationship has weathered previous challenges, including reports of domestic disagreements that led to a brief separation in August 2022. Despite these hurdles, they had consistently presented a united front to the public, making the recent announcement particularly unexpected.
As news of the separation continues to circulate, fans are left to speculate about the future of this prominent celebrity couple. The possibility of reconciliation remains uncertain, but for now, Size 8 appears to be embarking on a new chapter in her life.
