The Kenyan content creator has revealed that she was heavily body-shamed during a period when she weighed just 43kg, with online comments about her slim frame becoming so intense that she says she cried during an interview.

And now, Eve is making it clear that the pressure did not disappear after she gained weight.

The popular content creator recalled the harsh comments she received while reflecting on her old photos, saying: “You guys bullied me hadi nikalia kwa hii interview.”

At the time, Eve’s weight had reportedly remained around the 43kg mark, something that attracted constant attention from social media users.

She later began working out and embarked on a weight-gain journey.

Even after transforming her body, the comments continued.

Some people questioned her new appearance and even suggested that she should return to her former body.

Eve pushed back, making it clear that her body was not something the internet gets to control.

Foi Wambui has been ordered to remain in a copyright battle over Mutoriah’s hit song “Beta” after a court rejected her attempt to have the case against her thrown out.

The actress and content creator is facing a lawsuit filed by musician Mutoriah over the alleged unauthorised use of his song in an Oppo smartphone advertisement.

The dispute centres on a skit Wambui featured in while promoting Oppo’s Reno 12 5G. Mutoriah claims his music was used without his permission or a synchronization licence.

A synchronization licence is required when copyrighted music is paired with visual content, particularly in commercial advertising.

Mutoriah says he discovered the advert circulating on social media on August 31, 2024.
