Destiny finds a way to establish itself and one day, Chichi found herself being introduced to a tall, dark guy in a club by fashion designer, Emmanuel Jambo. In an interview with SDE, she revealed that she had no clue how popular he was in Kenya. The two exchanged contacts and one thing led to another.
“We dated for a whole year before we decided to go public about our love affair. The only reason we decided to go public was for people to see that what we have is real. We did not want to go into stories of cheating, neither did we want to let people start suggesting that either of us had gotten a “sponsor”,” said Chiki three years ago.
She was introduced to Bien at a club by fashion designer Emmanuel Jambo and at first, had no clue how popular Bien was in Kenya.
“I loved him for who he is, not because he is a celebrity and he knows that. I do not really get worried thinking about the girls who throw themselves at him. Besides, before I started dating him, I knew his showbiz lifestyle and I did not come to change him. I trust him. Besides, I meet as many men as he meets women but we stay faithful by choice. When people attack us, I just feel sad for them because Bien and I will still go to bed happy,” she added.
Education
She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Maths and Psychology from the University College of London.

The guest were sent their invites a day before and were expected to be seated at 10:30 AM. They were also instructed to come with a cab and not their own cars because of parking.
Bien proposed to the dance choreographer last year in Westgate at a Cinema. The two aid that they postponed the wedding to this year because Chiki’s family was not around.
The wedding preparations were on the down-low as they didn’t want any media to be on the know.
The source tells us that the private wedding that is star-studded has seen the two splash millions on the white wedding.
“The wedding is at Lavington right and only few celebs are invited. It is a very secret event with tight security. No gate crashers or media”
From us is congratulations to the love birds.
