Lynn Ngugi Speaks On Breaking Up With Lover Of 5 Years Ahead Of Their Wedding, Claims Of Having A Daughter

Popular content creator and brand influencer, Lynn Ngugi, has explained why she is yet to settle down and get married.

Speaking in an interview with Dr King’ori, the content creator disclosed that she was previously in a serious relationship, and even got engaged.

However, even after getting engaged, the relationship crumbled just as they were planning to officiate their union.

“I always wonder why it took so long, since then, when I start talking to someone we can’t go past three months because I feel that’s long enough to know someone,” Lynn said.

During the interview, Lynn also addressed claims that she is a mother to a beautiful daughter.

Contrary to claims on social media, the media personality denied the allegations mentioning that the little girl is her niece.

“However, I have accepted the title, I’m a mother to many people, I find myself being close to many people. I’m an aunt to a wonderful niece and nephew, but it’s important for people to verify first,” Lynn added.

Elsewhere, Lynn is the CEO and founder of Lynn Ngugi Network.

The highflying journalist is among latest entrants to Business Daily’s Top 40 Under 40, an annual award aimed at recognising and feting 40 men and women under 40 years making an impact in different fields.

She was born at the popular Pumwani Hospital in Nairobi, and she was raised by her mother after their parents divorced.

“My mother was a small time shoe hawker at Gikomba market. She would sell her minimal stock of shoes just to bring food to the table

“At some point, she became a clothes hawker in Nairobi CBD, and it was a struggle,” Lynn said.

Later, Lynn got a chance to travel to Dubai through a friend she met on Facebook.

Although she flew to Dubai on a visiting visa, she started looking and applying for any job that she could get.

She later secured a job at a restaurant that provided accommodation and a work permit.

”Just a few days before the expiration of her visiting visa, Costa Coffee called me back. I explained to them my situation, and they offered to give me accommodation and a work permit visa. That’s how I began my work as a coffee barista,” Lynn said.

Although she was making money and affording to send some home, she got depressed owing to a lack of fulfillment and decided to quit and return to Kenya after six months.

“Every day I woke up and started making coffee, I would get depressed. I was unfulfilled because I wasn’t following my passion

“I would see my classmates doing well in Kenya, and this reminded me of the dreams I wanted to chase. I had goals to pursue. This made me quit my job and come back home,” she said.

Lynn returned home but she did not get any satisfying job and returned abroad to work as a project manager at Qatar Foundation Research and Development.

She worked between 2013 and 2016.

She landed a job at TUKO where she worked until 2021 when she left to launch her own company, Lynn Ngugi Network, under which she produces the Lynn Ngugi Show.
