Published on July 11, 2020, gospel singer Betty Bayo has shared a candid account of her past relationship with Prophet Kanyari, highlighting the mistakes she made when they got married after just three weeks of knowing each other.

According to Bayo, she and Kanyari met and interacted for only three weeks before deciding to live together, a decision she now regrets.

"In my past relationship, I made mistakes from day 1, followed by more than 1000 more mistakes," Bayo wrote on social media, adding that she moved in with a man she barely knew, including his full Mpesa names.

"Everyday things were unfolding, I didn’t keep the social distance, I got pregnant, kidogo kidogo. Pregnant again. The rest is history," she continued.

Bayo also revealed that she and Kanyari later decided to do a wedding to solemnize their union, but she now questions the legitimacy of their marriage.

"I was forced to say I did a wedding then was naive.. nani hapa alikula mchele ya harusi yangu,??? Did I do my wedding in Jupiter?" she wrote.

Bayo's story serves as a cautionary tale, highlighting the importance of taking time to get to know someone before making a lifelong commitment.
