- Australian senator Lucy Gichuhi’s daughter has come out to accuse her mother of betrayal - According to her daughter, details on domestic violence published in her recent book were false - She accused the mother of being the violent one who would abuse them till their father had to call the police - She explained their mother only published the book for selfish gain which is now breaking the family apart - According to her, the family was never consulted on what the book would entail You know what they say, love maybe blind, marriage is bliss but divorce is murder, well nobody has been killed in this story, but something crucial that binds a family has definitely been killed, that is trust. Barely days after Kenyan born Australian Senator Lucy Gichuhi published her first book, Behind the Smiles, detailing how she endured an abusive marriage for three decades, turns out that was not the case.
According to Muringi, they learned of the new book after her boyfriend, Evans Kipruto, came across a report by TUKO.co.ke showing her mother’s new milestone. Source: Twitter Gichuhi’s daughter, Joy Muringi Gichuhi, revealed details shared by her mother in the book which focuses on domestic violence were lies orchestrated for selfish gains. “Out of the three decades mentioned, I lived with my parents for 21 years of them. Never have I ever seen physical or emotional abuse. I am actively against domestic violence as it has sadly been apart of my extended families so I would never ever defend an abuser,” narrated Muringi. "However, I am utterly disgusted that my mother would use her senatorial position to defame a wonderful man,” she said. Senator Lucy Gichuhi’s daughter dismisses claims their dad was abusive Joy Muringi Gichuri revealed details shared by her mother in her book which focuses on domestic violence as lies orchestrated for selfish gains.
According to Muringi, they learned of the new book after her boyfriend, Evans Kipruto, came across a report by TUKO.co.ke showing her mother’s new milestone and informed the family. She claimed they were only aware their mother was working on a book but never knew what it entailed as they automatically assumed it would be about her achievements. “My mother did not write the book from home, when she first mentioned she was writing a book several months ago, we thought it was about her own life not about exposing this family unnecessarily so we left her to her own devices,” she told TUKO.co.ke.
In the book, meant to inspire and empower girls, the much celebrated senator describes the father of her three daughters as an abusive husband and not supportive. Source: Facebook In the book meant to inspire and empower girls, the much celebrated senator describes the father of her three daughters, William Gichuhi, as an abusive husband and not supportive. Muringi, however, dismissed the claims noting their father was the best and was actually the one being abused having to play both father and mother roles while Gichuhi was busy with her career life. "From the beginning, my father has had to play both the father, being the protector, provider and the mother, being the nurturer, the soft one you run to when you are hurt,” she said.
She claims they only knew their mother was working on a book but never knew what it entailed as they automatically assumed it would be about her achievements. “When my mother lost her job, she alleged he was unsupportive. That is nonsense, when she was spending long nights at the library, he paid for everything including my pocket money so I could go out with friends,” she added. According to the daughter, his dad took parenting off Gichuhi’s plate so she could focus on law school. “Sure, he was not the best husband as their marriage was rocky but he was supportive in the sense that he never complained when he had to do both his share and her share of the housework,” said a furious Muringi.
She noted their mother was abusive to an extend she would physically abuse them and their father would have to call in the police to intervene. The issues were, however, resolved when Gichuhi declared she wanted to be a senator and the family was happy once again until the book was published which she said is a betrayal to the family. “My dad said, he did not want to pretend they were a happy couple, rather he wanted to be one. In order for that to happen, they had to resolve past issues…It was like teenagers in love again. So for her to publish such a book, without even so much a word to my father about what it detailed, is utter betrayal and he is hurt by it," said Muringi.[ATTACH=full]221989[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]221990[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]221991[/ATTACH]
