Kenyan content creator and model Maureen Waititu has come out to defend single mothers looking for love dispensing the notion that single mothers come with baggage and they don’t deserve to be loved.
Speaking to YouTuber Lynn Ngugi, the mother of two explained that despite her and the kids coming as a package, they have their father and all she needs is love.
“Single mums are dope. I don’t know whether it’s Kenya or Africa there is this whole notion of mothers don’t deserve love. No, I’m a mother then there are kids, and the truth is yes we do come as a package, kids are my responsibility and they have their father. Me, I need love,” she said.
Speaking on behalf of all single mothers, Maureen explained that the moms are the best people to have a relationship with as they are responsible and often have their own things going on for themselves, not always available.
“Let me tell you, some of the most amazing people to love. Yes, I’m speaking on behalf of all the single mums around the world, single mums are so dope. In as much as we will give you the calendar, you chose three months from now which day I’m available, we are dope, and responsible, and everything is good. But for me, friendship in love is very important”
Maureen also revealed that she would never give up on love citing that love is a beautiful thing and nobody should ever have to give up on it just because they experienced a bad breakup.
“Love is a beautiful thing, there is just something about..leave alone breakups, but just growing up and realizing your priorities,” she said.
She also talked about finding a friend in a lover because at the end of the day, the feeling may fade but the friendship would help you get back to each other
“Personally the person I would imagine in my life would have to be my best friend because when the butterflies are over you must face this person and ask where are we going”
Maureen, who is co-parenting with Fitness trainer and YouTuber Frankie Just Gym after their nasty break up, revealed that she now loves differently revealing that her next man ought to be self-aware and has to be able to build a friendship with her.
“Self-awareness coz weuh people are broken out there, broken is okay but are you self-aware, are you able to say I have this weakness and I’m working on it other than being in denial and the cycle repeats itself.”
