Kennedy Rapudo: What Caused Split With Amber Ray

Businessman and golfer Kennedy Rapudo has revealed that differences that proved beyond repair was what led to the breakup between him and socialite Faith Makau alias Amber Ray.

During a Q&A session on his Instagram stories on Thursday, August 25, Rapudo noted that their differences had only made the relationship between them worse.

Nonetheless, he praised her as an amazing ex-partner with a good heart and wished her the best in her endeavours.

"Life happens right? Ideally speaking, we had irreconcilable differences but that doesn't change who she is.

"She's a very nice person with an amazing heart and a beautiful soul. Mine is to wish her happiness and God's favour wherever she goes," he wrote.

Amber revealed on Wednesday, August 24 during a Q&A session on her Instagram stories that she was no longer dating Rapudo, the fourth man she has dated this year.

Rather than issue a comprehensive statement, Rapudo decided to take a cheeky approach, using the 'Sina Maoni' meme that went viral on the day of the August 9, 2022, general elections.

The meme he used originated from Uasin Gishu county whereby a man's live interview with Citizen TV's reporter Chemutai Goin would ignite a flurry of bizarre and viral moments that made part of the election day, especially after the man appeared to freeze like a deer in headlights when Goin posed to him any concerns on the electoral process.

"Can you kindly tell us your concerns over the election given that there were requests to postpone the polls over cases of insecurity? As a voter who is already in the queue to cast your vote, what is your opinion?" Goin posed.

"Kulingana na mimi sina maoni. Sina maoni kabisa (I do not have any response worth offering. I really do not have anything to say)," he responded, sending the journalist and the crowd into laughter.

A fan had asked Amber if the couple were still together, to which the socialite denied, adding that she was tired of pretending to be in a relationship she was not comfortable with.

“I know where it has reached, I might look like a joker but I don’t know how to pretend. If it is not working, it’s not working so love me the way I am,” she responded.

It was only just last month that Amber gushed over Kennedy saying she was enjoying being loved and has not been afraid to show it in public on several occasions.
