A recent photo of Mugithi singer Samuel Muchoki, popularly known as Samidoh, alongside his ex-wife Edday has set social media abuzz with chatter and speculation.

The snapshot, initially shared by Samidoh’s manager Marite, captured the couple alongside a friend, marking Samidoh’s return to Kenya after spending a month with his family in the United States.

The selfie, taken by Samidoh himself, portrays a moment of intimacy and joy between the couple, garnering both admiration and curiosity from fans and followers alike.

However, amidst the excitement surrounding the reunion, Samidoh found himself addressing a rather contentious comment from a fan.

In a heated exchange, a social media user accused Samidoh of negatively impacting the life of his wife, Edday Nderitu.

The singer, however, wasted no time in fiercely defending his spouse, asserting that she is thriving in her endeavours, far surpassing the critic’s assumptions.

“You ruined Eddays life man,” Robert Ke told Samidoh.

“Robert Ke, she is doing better than your father,” Samidoh responded.

Samidoh’s journey to the United States, specifically to Boston, Massachusetts, where his estranged wife and three children reside, marked a significant reunion for the family.

This reunion holds particular significance as it marked the first time Samidoh has seen his children since they departed for the United States in May 2023.

The heartfelt reunion and subsequent photo shared online elicited a wave of supportive comments from fans and well-wishers, celebrating the power of love and family.

From messages of admiration for Edday’s strength and resilience to expressions of joy for the reunited family, the comments section beneath the viral photo reflects an outpouring of positivity and support for Samidoh and his loved ones.
