Irene Nekesa, a constant figure in Bahati and Diana Marua’s household for over four years is now at the center of swirling rumors that she may no longer be working with the famous couple. Fans have been left speculating after Nekesa’s recent shift in content creation and her more independent social media presence, leaving some to wonder if her relationship with the Bahatis has changed.

For years, Nekesa, a mother of one, has been a trusted member of the Bahati household, helping Diana with content creation, household tasks, and family responsibilities. However, recently, the star helper has taken a step back from shooting content at the Maruas' home and instead has been creating videos with fellow comedian Khoja Afrique. Her collaboration with Khoja has drawn attention, with Nekesa actively promoting her own YouTube channel and sharing branded content online. Fans have been left in a state of confusion — is Nekesa on leave or has she been let go?
Further fueling these rumors, Irene, who reportedly earned KSh 100,000 a month for her work with Diana, recently unfollowed her boss and her entire family on Instagram. The act, which followed her reduced engagement on their posts, sparked suspicions that all may not be well between them. The unfollowing has been a red flag for some fans, leading to widespread speculation that perhaps Diana has fired her.
Despite the murmurs surrounding her departure, Nekesa has not addressed the rumors. She seems to be moving on with her life and career. The content creator recently went live on TikTok with her boyfriend, Kevo, where the two appeared to be enjoying a sweet, jovial conversation. Some fans even inquired whether they would kiss, which Nekesa and Kevo responded to with laughter and affirmation of their relationship. This display of happiness in her personal life seemed to shift the narrative from the speculation about her professional life.
What is clear is that Irene’s fans have a lot of questions, but Nekesa has remained tight-lipped about the situation. As the rumors continue to swirl, some fans are wondering if she’s merely taking a break or if her relationship with Diana Marua has reached a crossroads. Only time will tell whether she will return to the Bahati household or if she’s ready to embrace a new chapter in her career.
For now, fans are left to follow Irene’s evolving journey, with many hoping to see more from her on social media and beyond. Would she truly leave the Maruas, or is this just a temporary shift in her creative focus? Only Nekesa knows the full story.
