Kenyan comedian Mulamwah and his ex-girlfriend Ruth K have taken their breakup to explosive new levels with an online feud that has drawn widespread public attention. The drama reached a peak on June 19, 2025, when Ruth K accused Mulamwah of threatening to leak a private video she had sent him during their relationship. According to Ruth, Mulamwah had already shared the video with her family, including her father and brother, as part of a disturbing effort to embarrass her. She expressed her pain and disbelief on social media, saying she now fears that the video could be made public.
Mulamwah’s actions have drawn heavy criticism online, with screenshots reportedly showing him messaging Ruth’s relatives with explicit content and conversations. This disturbing breach of privacy has sparked outrage, with many calling it emotional abuse and digital blackmail.
The situation became even more bizarre when Mulamwah publicly demanded Ruth return the artificial teeth he allegedly paid for. The request was widely seen as petty and demeaning. In a show of solidarity, a Nairobi dental clinic offered to gift Ruth a new set of dental implants at no cost, condemning Mulamwah’s actions as degrading and inappropriate.
Further fueling tensions, Ruth accused Mulamwah of using their child to score points in their feud. She claimed he had taken screenshots of their son’s photos and shared them online without her consent. She also mentioned an incident where he sent her KSh 5,000 only to reverse the payment shortly afterward, a move she said reflected the manipulation she had endured.
In response, Mulamwah released his own accusations, blaming Ruth’s friends for turning her against him and claiming she had spread false rumors about his HIV status in a women’s WhatsApp group. He also accused her of disrespecting his family and being ungrateful despite his support throughout their relationship. He portrayed himself as a heartbroken man who had been wronged and betrayed.
As the bitter back-and-forth continues to play out in the public eye, many fans have expressed sympathy for Ruth, especially following her calm and composed appearance in a recent interview on Ebru TV. In contrast, Mulamwah’s actions, particularly the threats involving intimate content have been widely condemned.
What began as a private breakup has now evolved into a very public and painful confrontation. With both parties continuing to air their grievances online, the situation underscores the emotional and reputational toll of modern digital conflict, especially when love turns to war.
