On May 16, 2020, a heated exchange erupted between socialites Vera Sidika and Caroline Brooks on social media.
According to Vera, her critics are 'peasants' who 'live in bedsitters and survive on borrowed wifi.' She went on to claim that if she were to give away Ksh50,000, the same people would be begging in the comments section.
However, Caroline Brooks, known for her flashy lifestyle, took to Instagram to tear Vera apart. She wrote, 'All these 'rich socialites' feel like they are powerful just because they bully people who don’t have a platform to defend themselves. I won’t stand for it! Calling people beggars and peasants is so uncalled for.'
Caroline further alleged that Jimmy Chansa left Vera, not the other way around, and referred to her as toxic and disrespectful. She wrote, 'You’re broke, insecure and your man left because you are toxic and disrespectful. he’s such a nice guy and you never deserved a nice guy and you never deserved him. Don’t worry sweetie. I’ll show him how a real woman treats a man.'
Responding to Caroline's allegations, Vera shared a photo flaunting stacks of cash, to prove she isn’t broke. She captioned the photo, 'A little lunch money and just like last week I’m buying a few folks lunch today. Woke up in good moods.'
