Former Machachari actor Tyler Kamau Mbaya alias Baha has revealed that he started a family at a young age since he felt lonely after his mother’s death.
Speaking in an exclusive with Hiram Maina, the actor indicated that he needed to start a family since he needed one.
His mother’s death affected him so much such that he felt that she had left a huge void in his heart which needed to be filled.
“I grew out and you start to look within yourself. You want to do better things. You want to change. So I was at that point and I saw my mum had left a huge void in my heart,” he said.
The father of one lost his mum, Beth Nyambura, in 2013 where she died of cancer.
The actor was in form one at the time of his mother’s death.
Baha noted that he is not yet married as he is set to marry in a beautiful wedding.
The actor and his girlfriend, Georgina Njenga, are blessed with a beautiful baby girl.
“I am not married yet. You will see the wedding, but I decided to settle down early. I’m with my girlfriend and we have a beautiful child,” the actor stated.
He added that he is not asking young people to settle early since his decision was personal as he had already made a name for himself in the media.
The actor dreamed to be either a journalist, lawyer or scientist but all this never happened as he found himself fit in acting.
Baha’s mum pushed him into arts and acting after seeing his talent where he decided to study film online before launching his YouTube channel.
In 2010, he became famous after Machachari’s first episode was aired on Citizen TV
