Before the death of business mogul Chris Kirubi, many people claimed that he was dating Socialite and entrepreneur, Huddah Monroe.
However, that was not the case, according to Monroe, who revealed that he was her business mentor.
Huddah, who has always had a soft spot for the businessman, says she first met him when travelling and they would bump into each other while flying Business class.
The Huddah Cosmetics CEO showered praises to Kirubi, revealing that he went on to later bump was part of her inspiration to start Huddah Cosmetics.
“This man used to see me in Business Class, in almost all my travels. In NBO(Nairobi), there’s no first class lounge so y’all sit there in Biz Class lounge waiting for Emirates flight. When he asked what I do for a living I didn’t have an answer. He proceeded to upgrade me to first class.
We had a lengthy talk coz I like to ask and learn from people. And I am happy that he was part of what inspired me to start Huddah Cosmetics,” she wrote.
I always wanted to marry Kirubi
In 2018, Huddah disclosed that she had always fancied the mogul as evidenced with her admiration for him.
“That’s why I always wanted to marry C.K. Such a great man,” she wrote.
She was among those who passionately defended him after a photo of him while he was ailing wrought celebrations from critics.
“Someone we should all emulate as a businessman. He bought shares at the right places and got lucky,” Huddah wrote in one post while in a separate one she added “And what pained me the most is the Chris Kirubi issue. I am ashamed to be Kenyan. Nairobi is a sea full of sharks waiting for you to shake a little. So they can finish you. Kick you when you are down. Mshindwe na Mlegee.”
