Popular Kenyan YouTuber and content creator Thee Pluto has made a bold decision to keep his romantic life away from social media. This comes after his previous experience with public scrutiny during his relationship with ex-partner and baby mama, Felicity Shiru.
Regrets of Sharing Love Online
Speaking on his podcast, Thee Pluto Bulletin, the young father shared the challenges he faced when he let his fans into his personal life. He revealed that social media initially appeared supportive but eventually turned toxic.
“Social media will gas you up with bad advice, and before you know it, people who don’t even know you are in your business,” Thee Pluto explained.
He admitted that one of his biggest regrets was sharing images of his child online. He recounted how his young son, who is too young to understand the online world, faced trolling.
“If my child were old enough to understand what was happening, it would’ve been worse. But this was a mistake I brought upon myself by introducing him to social media,” he said.
Thee Pluto emphasized that he had learned from his past and vowed never to showcase his love life or family on social media again.
Lessons and Insights
The YouTuber lauded young single mothers, acknowledging how well they take care of their partners. He noted that such women often treat their men like husbands, with a nurturing spirit akin to that of a mother.
“Once you date a mother of one or two, you can’t go back,” he remarked, hinting at the level of care and understanding he believes they bring to relationships.
A New Chapter After Breakup
Thee Pluto’s decision to stay private follows his public breakup with Felicity Shiru in September 2024. The couple, who had dated for three years and shared a daughter, ended their relationship due to differences, including religious disagreements.
After their split, Thee Pluto moved out of the mansion they had shared, which was later listed for rent at KSh 130,000 per month. He explained that the space felt too large for him now that he was living alone.
Mixed Reactions from Fans
Fans had varied reactions to Thee Pluto’s revelation about social media’s impact on his relationships. Some applauded his decision to stay private, while others mocked his past decisions.
One fan commented, “Social media and relationships will never work,” while another said, “People learn from failure, and that’s okay.”
Moving Forward
As Thee Pluto focuses on his career and personal growth, his choice to keep his family life off social platforms serves as a lesson for others in the public eye. His experience is a testament to the potential pitfalls of oversharing online, reminding everyone of the importance of setting boundaries in a digital age.
