Travel entrepreneur and public figure Sarah Mtalii has finally broken her silence on the status of her relationship with Simon Kabu, firmly shutting down any hopes of reconciliation. In a candid interview with TUKO Talks, the mother of two revealed that she has officially moved on and is not looking back—despite the ongoing speculation surrounding her love life.
For years, Sarah and Simon served as the epitome of couple goals, with their glamorous vacations, joint business ventures, and Sarah’s empowering motto, “Marriage Works,” which encouraged women to fight for their marriages. However, the image of the perfect union began to crumble when a video surfaced allegedly showing Sarah in a confrontation with another woman inside their matrimonial home. That incident, she says, was the breaking point.
In the interview, Sarah clarified that the woman in the video was not a friend or guest, but someone her husband had brought into their home without her knowledge. “Let him come out and identify that woman,” she said. “People made assumptions, but no one asked me what really happened.”
Since announcing her separation, Sarah revealed that her inbox has been flooded with attention. She shared that more than 20 men have approached her with serious marriage proposals, disproving the myth that women must fit a particular mold to be considered desirable.
“Many men are not looking for looks or curves,” she said. “They want virtuous women. I have like 20 serious marriage proposals right now. I haven’t even opened some of my DMs yet, but if someone really wants to reach you, they’ll find a way. Let the storm settle first.”
Sarah was quick to address the growing speculation about her relationship with the lawyer who has often been seen by her side. While many believe the two are romantically involved, she clarified that he is her support system—someone she consults regularly and trusts with decisions about her new dating life.
“He’s not just a lawyer, he’s a close friend and advisor. I even tell him about the dates I get and ask him whether I should go or not,” she shared. “At the right time, we will be able to consider only one.”
Her transparency has drawn a wave of support online. Fans have praised her for reclaiming her voice, putting herself first, and showing that it’s okay to walk away from a situation that no longer serves you—even after 15 years.
One fan commented, “Big hug mama. You are a wise woman. You don’t need to die holding empty dreams.” Another added, “Sarah, you are gorgeous than wakati ulikuwa kwa akina ndoa, keep it up.”
While Sarah hasn’t ruled out the idea of settling down again, she made it clear that she’s focusing on healing, rediscovering herself, and choosing peace over pressure. Her story, once centered on holding a marriage together, is now about rebuilding a life of purpose and dignity—on her own terms.
