Renowned journalist Mary Kilobi has finally opened up about her journey to motherhood, shedding light on why she chose to keep her pregnancy away from the public eye.
In an interview with Daily Nation, the 40-year-old explained that the decision was personal, aimed at shielding her experience from unnecessary scrutiny.
“This journey belonged to us. We wanted to protect it from outside noise and speculation,” Kilobi stated.
She also dismissed rumors that she took a career break due to her pregnancy.
“I went on sabbatical in June, but it had nothing to do with this. I just needed time away from the public eye. Right now, I’m on maternity leave, but I’ll be back soon,” she clarified.
After years of waiting, Kilobi finally welcomed a baby boy, whom she named Atwoli Junior after his father. She expressed immense gratitude, emphasizing that she did not undergo any medical procedures to conceive.
“This is something I have always longed for, and I’m deeply grateful,” she said.
