Rachel Ruto is no stranger to making bold yet elegant fashion statements, but during the state visit of the Dutch royals on March 18, 2025, it wasn’t just her outfit that stood out—it was her shoes. The Kenyan First Lady stepped out in a pair of brown suede block heels adorned with a gold emblem.

Both breakups quickly moved from private matters to public drama.

When Sonnie and Mulamwah parted ways in 2021, social media was the first to get the new, complete with cryptic posts, emotional statements and follow-up interviews. Fast forward to 2025, and Ruth K echoed a similar tone.

It’s been barely 3 months since the breakup, and I’ve faced disrespect in ways you wouldn’t even imagine publicly and more worse in private.

2. Allegations of disrespect and emotional hurt

In both relationships, the women voiced emotional distress.

Sonnie, though more subtle, often hinted that Mulamwah's quick rebound and attitude left her wounded. Ruth K, however, was more direct:

I’m trying to heal, to gather myself emotionally, but it’s draining.

Mulamwah's response was unapologetic, labelling Ruth as the architect of her own downfall and accusing her of disrespect even claiming she disrespected parents and was moved to Ruaka by friends.
