Dee Mwango Boyfriend

She was dating a Filipino named Jay Bonight but the relationship went south when she discovered he was using her.

The two met on Instagram and their relationship grew to something serious.

” He introduced me to his family and after sometimes I also called my two brothers and informed them and everyone was so supportive” she shared in a long video.

Bonight did not have a social media presence and a youtube channel. According to Dee, he was “just a regular person, and that’s what I fell in love with “

Enchanted by the world of Dee, her ex-flame wanted in,

Personally I wanted him to start his own youtube channel where he could do his vlogs, but Jay wanted us to open a couples channel” Adding that “he had to quit his job and had a debt of over $1,000 (KSh 134,000) and was to clear it before he was released,” she said.

Blinded by love, she settled his debts and opened a grocery business of his parents. She was the one who was also footing their accommodation and food bills.

Her problems started when her boyfriend thought she was controlling when she recommended the kind laptop he needed to create content.

” The big mistake that made everything to fall apart was the fact that I was recommending him the type of laptop to buy and he did not want that and that’s the problem.” Adding,

 That’s when he stopped talking to me, ignoring my messages and calls for weeks and he would make videos on the couples channels and claim on how he loves me.”

She had to quit the relationship because it wasn’t working.
