Popular content creator and travel vlogger Natalie Tewa recently revealed the reasons behind her breakup with fiancé Francis Mugane.
In a candid Q&A session on her YouTube channel, Natalie shared that the relationship ended because she wasn’t happy. When asked about her engagement, Natalie responded by saying; “that didn’t work out, and I’m not one to do things for society if I’m not happy.”
Speculation about their split began in December 2023, when Natalie unfollowed Francis on social media and deleted their engagement photos.
The couple had gotten engaged in a romantic proposal in February 2023, just months after Natalie expressed her desire for a long-term relationship, stating,
“I am somewhere there and looking to get married.”
Natalie had previously ended a relationship with Moses Mukiibi, also known as Rnaze, four years ago. Natalie would then begin dating photographer Sam Muchai, but the couple broke up months later.
Natalie however says she is still open to dating again maintaining that she prefers being in a relationship with older men.
“For me, a 10-year age difference is nothing. I have always believed that men take a bit of time to mature. So, if we are on the same level, then who is going to take charge and lead the family properly?” she explained.
During the same interview, Natalie also touched on her challenging upbringing, including her parents’ divorce.
“My parents divorced when I was young. We used to live in Uganda where my mum had a really good job. Something happened to us and our house caught fire and burned down, and there was drama with my dad,” she said.
Following the fire, Natalie and her mother moved to Nairobi, where they faced financial struggles.
“My mother tells me she used to sell second-hand clothes for us to survive. She eventually got a house in the Nairobi Dam estate in Lang’ata. I grew up there and I used to ride bikes with boys in the estate,” Natalie recalled.
