Frankie Just Gym It, a celebrity fitness trainer, has been at the center of controversy following allegations that he is a deadbeat dad. However, in a recent vlog, Frankie has refuted these claims, stating that he has been taking care of his children.
According to Frankie, he has been sending his ex-partner, Maureen Waititu, KES 6,000 every week for the upkeep of their children. He also takes care of his son's school fees at Montessori, which amounts to approximately KES 150,000.
Frankie explained that his mother helps him pay the school fees, and he has an agreement with his ex-partner regarding the payment of their children's nannies. He emphasized that he takes his responsibilities as a father seriously and urged people to think critically about what it means to be a deadbeat parent.
Frankie also addressed claims that he does not pay rent for his baby mama and children. He stated that he lives in a house in Westlands, which was given to him by his mother as an engagement gift. He pays a service fee for the house, but there is no rent to pay.
Frankie's response comes as he has been in the spotlight following his confirmation of a relationship with socialite Corazon Kwamboka. In his vlog, Frankie expressed his gratitude to Corazon for helping him through a difficult phase of his life.
