Arthur Mandela popularly known as Xtiandela on Monday morning surprised his fans and Kenyans at large after announcing that he, together with his 7-months-old girlfriend are expecting a baby.
“Can’t believe it’s already 7 months down the line. You have CHANGED me a LOT(Sic),” the infamous influencer said. In a steamy and honestly beautiful Instagram picture, the vlogger who is loved and hated in an equal measure shared a picture of him and his girlfriend with a baby bump clearly visible on her stomach. Xtian could not contain his happiness in a long post on Instagram thanking Fatmah Banj for giving him the best gift a man could arguably ask for.
“You’ve given me happiness, given me peace, made me laugh, cry, smile challenged me mentally and business-wise, you’ve become a true BEST friend and now you’ve given me the BEST gift a man can ask for…You’ve made me a DAD.” He said.
When the coronavirus pandemic hit the country, Xtian Dela reportedly made more than Ksh 5 million from his controversial online show, ‘Club Covid’, in under three months.
The show attracted a lot of controversy since a lot of erotic dancing was done on the show that he then claimed was to help talented artists who lost their jobs due to the coronavirus pandemic.
This later led him to be summoned by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) headquarters over the show’s content. However, today ‘asking’ for forgiveness he said that he turned a new leaf. Clean shave and was focused.”I’ve let go of all my negative old ways. Apologies to ANYONE I’ve wronged in the past,” he said.
Xtian now says his focus is on his family and Westlands where he wishes to serve the residents as a Member of Parliament.
