Star Chebet, widely recognized for her role in The Real Househelps of Kawangware, recently made headlines after reappearing online following months of speculation about her well-being. The actress had vanished from social media after sharing a cryptic message, leading to widespread concern among her fans.
Star Chebet’s Disappearance and Return
In early 2024, Chebet worried her followers when she posted a mysterious statement about tapping into the wrong spiritual realms and seeking forgiveness from those she had wronged. Shortly after, her social media accounts were deactivated, fueling rumors about her fate.
False reports about her alleged death soon spread across social media platforms, causing panic among her fans. However, months later, Chebet reappeared on TikTok, putting the speculation to rest. Addressing the controversy, she condemned those who spread the death rumors while she was simply taking a break from the online space.
Responding to Cult Allegations
One of the most controversial claims linked to Chebet’s disappearance was the suggestion that she had joined a cult. In her comeback videos, she dismissed these rumors, emphasizing that she comes from a Christian background and had no interest in chasing clout.
She further explained that spiritual experiences can sometimes be misunderstood, drawing a fine line between madness and spiritual awakening. In a lighthearted but firm response, she stated:
“They said it’s schizophrenia. Who else thought I’d gotten into a cult? I was raised praying. Even God knows how to chase clout!”
Chebet also laughed off exaggerated claims about her whereabouts, including rumors that she had been admitted to a rehabilitation center in Nyahururu.
Fellow Actress Speaks Out
Amid the swirling rumors, fellow Real Househelps of Kawangware actress Njambi came to Chebet’s defense. She reassured fans that Chebet was doing well and urged them to respect her privacy. Njambi’s statement helped calm speculation, as many had feared the worst regarding Chebet’s condition.
Fans React to Her Comeback
Chebet’s return to social media has been met with mixed reactions, with many expressing relief while others admitted they had believed the false reports. Some fans shared their personal experiences with spiritual awakenings, while others humorously recalled their frantic attempts to verify the rumors.
Regardless of the controversy, Chebet appears to be in good spirits, enjoying her return to the digital world. Her story serves as a reminder of how misinformation can easily spread online and highlights the importance of verifying facts before jumping to conclusions.
