The conversation was ignited when Betty’s mother, Joyce Wairimu, went live on TikTok from the United States.
During the emotional session, she said that her daughter had struggled in her marriage before she passed away.
She questioned the official explanation of Betty’s death and demanded a post-mortem to reveal the true cause.
Wairimu also wondered why some of Betty’s personal items — including her ID and burial permit — were reportedly not handled properly.

Her statements triggered mixed reactions online, with some supporters asking for transparency, while others urged the family to avoid disagreements in public.
In the middle of the online debate, Betty’s longtime friend and film producer Priscilla Ndanu posted unseen photos of Betty and Tash at their home.

One of the images showed Tash gently applying a facial mask to Betty — a moment Ndanu described as tender, ordinary, and honest.
She explained that the photos were taken when she visited the couple and found Tash helping Betty with her skincare routine.
“It was a very sweet moment. I had to take pictures,” she wrote.

“There’s nothing wrong with a man choosing to love and honour his wife in every way.”
Ndanu defended Tash, describing him as a man who invested emotionally and financially in Betty and her children.

She said Betty often told her that before meeting Tash, she had lost hope of finding a man who would accept her with kids and support her ambitions.
According to Ndanu, Tash was not only a partner but also a source of encouragement who pushed Betty to chase her dreams.
Ndanu accused unnamed individuals of using grief to divide Betty’s loved ones. She urged the public to acknowledge that good men still exist and insisted that Tash had always been committed to Betty’s children.
She ended her message by offering emotional support to Tash:
“We know you’re a good man and a good dad. We will remind you of the truth whenever needed.”
Her message quickly spread online, drawing mixed reactions as Kenyans weighed in on the matter.

Public Reactions Remain Divided
After Ndanu’s post, social media users expressed strong but differing opinions:
Some stood with Betty’s mother, saying parents rarely lie about their children.
Others insisted Betty was clearly happy in her relationship and deserved peace.
A section believed that the children should be under the care of Betty’s family.
Many simply emphasised that “good men still exist.”
The comments reflected a broader debate on grief, blended families, and the challenges couples face in the public eye.
In her earlier statement, Betty’s mother mentioned that Pastor Kanyari, Betty’s ex-partner, should take custody of his children. She advised him to file a police report and reclaim them to protect their inheritance and future.
The message caused further confusion, prompting public figures — including Kanyari himself — to call for calm and respect toward Betty’s family.
