How old was David Mwangi's son?
On June 16, Mateo turned one, and his parents threw him a flashy birthday party. The private event was attended by a few family members and close friends.
In her speech during her son's birthday, David's queen pampered her second child with love, revealing they never planned to have him.
"Thank you so much for coming, we are grateful. My son, Mateo, wasn't planned. He is a blessing. I'm a 22-year-old with two kids. To my son, I love you very much, and I never knew you'd grow up this fast. My firstborn is chilled, but Mateo is bubbly. He walked at seven months," she said.
The loving parents hired content creator 2Mbili as the emcee of their son's birthday party.
2Mbili shared a TBT video from the young boy's birthday party accompanied by an emotional message.
Little Mateo was overjoyed as he enjoyed playful moments with his brother and friends who attended his party.
"Just a few weeks ago, Mateo, I hosted your birthday party as you turned 1. This news has really broken my heart. Pole sana watu wangu, King David Mwangi, and your wife. May God give you strength and be with you through this loss. Prince Mateo," 2Mbili mourned.
Just three days before their son's death, David took his family on vacation and shared a video surprising his wife.
He called her to the bedroom, where he had laid several KSh 1,000 notes, and gifted her the cash. Excited, the mother of two could be seen picking up the notes and counting them.
"She thought it was just a vacation…But I had a little secret planned 🥹💝. Surprising my queen because she deserves the world 🌍. From late-night hustle to moments like this. She stood by me when I had nothing, now I give her everything," he captioned the video.
