Kenyan singer Kevin Bahati had an emotional encounter with a woman claiming to be his biological mother, Judith Makokha, days after she publicly revealed her story.
Judith explained that she had left Bahati at an orphanage as a child, a decision she said was painful but intended for his future.
She emphasized the role the orphanage played in shaping his life and success and expressed readiness to take a DNA test to confirm her claim.
The meeting was deeply emotional. Judith arrived with two boys she described as Bahati’s younger brothers. The children performed songs that impressed viewers online.
As Bahati walked in, he warmly embraced Judith, who broke down in tears and at one point knelt before him, pleading for forgiveness.
Bahati later shared the reunion on his social media, admitting that the meeting left him with many questions and a sense of deep confusion.
For the singer, who has spoken openly about his challenging childhood in foster care, the encounter reopened a very personal chapter of his life.
The public now waits for the DNA test to bring clarity, but the story—full of hope, pain, and uncertainty—resonates beyond headlines as a profoundly human moment.
