Nyce Wanjeri and Husband Open Up About Being Auctioned: “It’s Been a Hard Season, But It Will Pass”
Kenyan actress Nyce Wanjeri and her husband Leting have shared an emotional account of their recent financial struggles, revealing that they were auctioned after falling behind on rent payments.
In a heartfelt Instagram video, the couple opened up about how tough the past few months have been. They revealed that their daughter has not reported back to school for third term, as she is yet to clear her second term fees.
Nyce and Leting said the situation reached a breaking point when all their household electronics, including their TV, cooker, and washing machine, were auctioned. Despite the challenges, they expressed gratitude to the people who have stood by them, especially their nanny, whom Nyce described as “incredibly understanding during this difficult time.”
The couple emphasized that their intention in sharing their story is not for sympathy but to encourage others who may be going through similar struggles.
“We just want to be real and authentic,” Nyce said. “Life has seasons, and this one will pass too.”
The couple, who have since moved to a smaller house, also appealed to their fans and well-wishers to support their content creation journey as they work to get back on their feet.
Their openness has sparked an outpouring of support online, with many Kenyans praising them for their vulnerability and courage in breaking the silence around financial hardship.
One fan wrote:
“Nice… I am so sorry about this 🫂 May God provide. Sending something and sharing this so that you get all the assistance you can 🫂 May God meet you at your point of need. May this storm pass, and that which has been taken away, may He bring it back double portion ❤️.”
The fan also shared a verse of encouragement — 1 Peter 5:10:
“And the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.”
Another user related to their situation, writing:
“My husband and I tasted this, baby girl. We adjusted immediately — took the kids to a government school, moved into a very small house, ate cheap but balanced food. We were happy and very cooperative. Tuliokoka and God helped us. We learnt a lot and we thank God.”
Others empathized with the couple, with one fan commenting:
“Wuuehhh, it hasn’t been easy at all for many of us. I actually told my friends if I didn’t die in September, ngakua Ngai enda.”
Many said Nyce and Leting’s story is a reminder that hard times don’t last forever, and that being open about struggles can help others find hope and healing in their own journeys.
