Triza Njeri has once again found herself in the middle of a stormy online feud with her husband, gospel artist and philanthropist Karangu Muraya. Just when it seemed like the couple had mended their rocky relationship, Triza reignited the drama, dismissing past romantic gestures and casting a spotlight on what she describes as mistreatment during their marriage. The unfolding saga has now been compounded by a leaked audio that has taken social media by storm.
The audio, shared by influencer Purity Macharia, features voices alleged to be Triza’s close friends, including one believed to be Tata Essy. In the recording, the friends reveal intimate and controversial details about Triza’s life after she left her matrimonial home, painting a grim picture of her emotional and financial state.
According to the voice in the clip, Triza had little to her name when she walked out of her marriage. “Can you believe that she was wearing worn-out bras and underwear?” the friend says. “She came to us in a white short that had completely changed colour. She looked so poor. That’s why I believe she wasn’t being supported or empowered in her marriage.”
This revelation shocked many who had once admired the couple’s public image. Earlier in the year, Karangu had bought Triza a new car, a gesture that was widely celebrated by fans who believed the couple had reconciled. But recent developments tell a different story. Triza, in a social media post, even ridiculed gifts like flowers that Karangu had previously given her, calling them meaningless.
The audio leak has sparked a wave of reactions online. Some Kenyans expressed concern for Triza’s wellbeing, while others criticized the friend for exposing private matters. @Makena Japhet Ringichu commented, “God give Triza peace, stress will kill her.” Another user, @Harun N Mburu, simply wrote, “Ngai. I really liked Triza.”
Others defended Tata Essy, crediting her for standing by Triza during her lowest moments. According to those close to the situation, Essy played a crucial role in helping Triza get back on her feet after leaving her marriage. She offered her shelter, introduced her to makeup, modern fashion, and connected her to brand endorsement opportunities. For many, Essy was the friend who “fixed Triza’s crown when she didn’t know it had fallen.”
Despite the drama, Triza’s bold decision to speak out has ignited wider discussions around women’s empowerment, toxic relationships, and the value of female friendships during personal crises. Whether or not reconciliation with Karangu Muraya is still possible remains unclear, but one thing is certain—Triza is not backing down, and her story continues to resonate with thousands of Kenyan women navigating similar journeys.
