Blessing Lungaho and Jackie Matubia didn’t fall in love on set as many people believed, they were already dating even before they joined Citizen TV’s Zora.
The popular actress opened up about his relationship with his soon-to-be baby mama while speaking during an interview on Radio Maisha.
He revealed that they met for the first time after he was invited for an interview at Switch TV where the Matubia was working at the time.
“She use to host the Chatspot show on Switch TV. That is where we met three years ago. We started talking and then God did his thing. We both landed roles on Zora when we were dating and it’s just a job like any other with its rules, so we did what we had to do,” Blessing Lungaho said.
The Zora actor also spoke on his journey in the film industry. He narrated how he struggled to make it to the top only to lose his father after he landed a major acting role.
Lungaho noted that he felt sad in spite of his breakthrough because his father died before he achieved his lifelong dream of being an accomplished actor.
“At the time I did not see it as a good thing because no child wishes to lose their parent before they achieve anything. I think the dream of any child is for your parent to see you shining.
“If you achieve something and the people who pushed you to achieve that thing are no longer there, it does not feel like a full achievement. I would have loved my father to see me achieve all these things,” he said.
