What have Stella, Sofia been up to?
The real name of the mother of three is Sharon Mwikali Mutuku. She said she made the difficult decision to leave her husband while pregnant due to the poor treatment she endured.
Sofia, who began her acting career on Machachari in 2009 shortly after finishing high school, explained that she had initially kept quiet about the separation.
However, she decided to speak out after a relative of her ex-husband publicly made disparaging remarks about her character, accusing her of neglecting their daughters and casting aspersions on her morals.
Sofia refuted these claims, stating that the relative had witnessed the difficult moments she endured, including many nights of emotional struggle. She confirmed that she has initiated legal action to protect her reputation and ensure the false allegations are addressed.
Despite the challenges in her marriage, Sofia emphasised that she has never spoken negatively about her ex-husband.
Stella, on the other hand, has built a reputation as a beauty influencer with a significant online following.
She wowed fans with her striking transformation from a child star to a confident young woman.
On Monday, 10 November, Stella hinted at reuniting with Sofia in a post on her Instagram Stories, asking fans to guess who she had met.

Stella donned a brown top and striped trousers while Sofia went for a black jumpsuit.
They posed at the TV47 studios, suggesting they may have attended an interview.
