Three actresses who play the daughters-in-law in the Kenyan series Mother-In-Law made a playful video for the programme’s 25th anniversary. According to Tuko, the video has delighted internet users.
The Kenyan comedy series Mother-In-Law, broadcast for many years, is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a reunion video featuring three actresses who play the daughters-in-law of the family matriarch, played by Charity Mumbah. According to Tuko, the video, filmed outdoors as a tribute to the series, is widely circulating on social media.
The three actresses argue over which of them joined the fictional Mwamba family first. Lisa, who plays Charlie’s wife, claims the title of first wife of Robert Mwamba, before her counterpart retorts that she was at least the first girlfriend or the first bride. Naomi Kamau, who plays Jack Mwamba’s wife, settles the matter by saying she is the first officially married into the family: "So I am the queen."
The actresses also reveal that they have known each other since 2007, long before the series, when Marion, Naomi and Faith met in Makutano. In the video, they joke about how hard it is to play the daughters-in-law of Charity Mumbah, and one of them says: "The patience it takes to handle mum..."
