A Journey of Love and Fatherhood
Kenyan musician Bahati, also known as Kevin Kioko, celebrated his foster son Morgan in a touching tribute on their shared birthday. Bahati adopted Morgan 12 years ago from ABC Children’s Home, despite feeling unprepared for fatherhood.
“Dear son Morgan,” Bahati wrote, “12 years ago, I wasn’t ready for fatherhood, but you became my life’s greatest blessing. You were an angel sent by God, a son, a friend, and the key to making me a family man.”
Why They Share a Birthday
Bahati teased a special reason behind their shared birthday. “Some things I’ll let you know when you grow up,” he hinted, adding mystery to their unique connection.
A Father’s Promise
Bahati promised to guide, protect, and love Morgan as he works toward achieving his dreams. He also prayed for strength to continue raising Morgan and his siblings with his wife, Diana Marua.
Diana’s Gratitude for Morgan
Diana Marua, Bahati’s wife, shared her gratitude for Morgan, noting he was the first to call her “Mom.” She revealed that Morgan was already part of Bahati’s life when they met, and his positive energy brought blessings to their family.
Bahati’s Early Adoption Journey
While fostering three children—Morgan, Purity, and Rose—Bahati faced financial challenges and strict adoption rules, allowing him to bring home only Morgan. “Returning Purity and Rose to the children’s home was the hardest decision of my life,” he shared.
A Growing Family
Bahati and Diana, now parents to five, continue to celebrate their unique family bond, with Morgan at the heart of their journey.
