Huddah Monroe Clarifies Stance On Dating Kenyan Men, Denies Hatred

Kenyan socialite and beauty entrepreneur Huddah Monroe has clarified her position on romantic relationships, explaining why she chooses not to date or marry Kenyan men while dismissing claims of harbouring ill feelings toward them.

Addressing the subject during an interactive question-and-answer session on her Instagram Stories on Sunday, October 25, 2026, Huddah responded to a fan who questioned her preferences regarding local men.

“My dad is Somali, my mom is Kenyan, my brothers are Kenyan. Why would I hate Kenyan men? I wouldn’t marry or date them doesn’t mean I hate them,” Huddah stated, highlighting her family background to counter assumptions about her personal choices.

Consistent Preferences on Celebrities and Past Relationships

The clarification aligns with previous statements made by the reality TV personality regarding her dating choices. In July 2025, when asked by a fan why she had never dated local public figures, Huddah firmly ruled out romantic links with entertainment industry personalities, stating, “I do not date celebs. Not Kenyan ones, especially.”

Huddah’s dating history has previously featured high-profile public attention, most notably her past connection with veteran Kenyan musician Jackson Ngechu Makini, popularly known as Prezzo.

In August 2024, the socialite reflected on her teenage years in Nairobi, recalling how she ran away from home for two years during her youth and spent a portion of that period in the company of the veteran musician. She also recounted how her mother had taken her to Kenyatta National Hospital as a teenager to impress upon her the importance of health awareness and personal protection before encouraging her to pursue her independence.

Both Huddah and Prezzo gained widespread regional prominence through their appearances on the Big Brother Africa reality television franchise—Prezzo finishing as first runner-up in the 2012 Stargame edition, and Huddah representing Kenya in the 2013 The Chase season.
