Actor Lenana Kariba and wife expecting their first baby

Popular Kenyan actor Lenana Kariba and his wife Helen have announced that they’re expecting their first child together.

Kariba, known for his roles in such hit Kenyan series like ‘Selina’ and ‘Single Kiasi’ among others, took to Instagram to post photos from their baby bump shoot.

“And then there were three…We are so excited to be growing our family in 2023. There is no one I would rather take this journey with- my queen is my everything and now our little mini-me will be the centre of our world,” he wrote.

The two tied the knot in September 2021 in the Caribbean Island of Antigua just months after he had proposed.

In a past interview, he  said that he chose the destination of the wedding because Helen wanted to have a beach wedding.

Their initial plan was to have the wedding in Diani but the COVID-19 pandemic found them in the UK and lockdowns had been imposed in several parts of the world then, and they decided that they could not wait any longer.

On parenthood, Lenana previously said that they would raise their child in the UK where Helen stays.

Kenyans and celebrities trooped to the lovebirds’ comment section to shower them with congratulatory messages on the news.
