What did model say about Bali photo with George Ruto?
George found himself at the center of an online buzz after being spotted with Instagram model Sheila Mutundi.
Internet sleuths quickly noticed that Sheila had been to the tropical island before, with past trips neatly archived in her Instagram highlights, hinting at her fondness for the destination.
The talk surrounding the photo prompted Sheila to speak out, accusing netizens of bashing her.
She explained the nature of her relationship with George and recounted meeting the first son in Indonesia.
“Alexander and I recently met George randomly here in Bali. Him being the president’s son, I asked for a picture. George was a very kind, humble, and simple guy who wore Crocs. I am not dating either of these gentlemen,” she said.
Sheila admitted that meeting George was a big deal for her.
“The picture of me and George means a lot to me. Growing up as I did, you could never imagine meeting a president's son or even being in Bali. It's a moment I wanted to share with my family and friends. I was bullied for taking a picture with George.
I felt rejected and ridiculed by my people. It cost me mentally, emotionally, and even financially because I am doing therapy, which isn’t cheap."
Sheila expressed confidence in her looks, saying:
“My forehead, bones, and small neck make me look stunning! I respect all your opinions about my appearance, but I’m dead gorgeous."
The model then sent a heartfelt message to Kenyans, acknowledging that many are disgruntled with President William Ruto’s government.
“To my dear Kenyans, if you ever see this, I love my country and understand what most of you are going through.”
Sheila said her father was a watchman and her mother sold local brew.
"I struggled most days and lacked almost everything. We must never stop fighting for what is right for our country. Any leader who doesn't do right by us must go."
