A widely popular TikTok star passed away

The digital community has been left mourning the sudden loss of Brian Chira, a raising TikTok star who attracted plenty of followers with his engaging content and vibrant personality.

The life of the 23-year-old social media sensation was cut short after he had been involved in a hit-and-run accident in Karuri, Kiambu County on March 16th, 2024.

His untimely passing shocked many Kenyans as well as followers from every corner on Earth.

As reported by Standard Media, the young Kenyan was spending the night at a popular restaurant in Gacharage together with a friend, but the two were asked to leave the place for causing disturbance and being drunk, allegedly.

When he left the resort, he got on a motorcycle together with his friend and just as they reached the Gacharage roundabout, Chira asked to be taken home. As they passed the service lane towards Ruaka bit heading towards Ndenderu on the wrong side, Chira alighted from the motorcycle and ran towards the main road when he was struck by a white canter that failed to make a stop.

It was reported that Chira’s lifeless body was picked up around 4 am at Ambassador along Western Bypass (Ndenderu – Ruaka stretch).

Chira’s funeral was attended by a huge crowd, which stunned the organizers who were forced to set more seats and tents. The members of the “Chira Clan,” as they referred to themselves, paid their tributes to the late Internet sensation and even contributed to the funeral expenses, raising over $60,000.

Speaking to BBC, one of the organizers of Chira’s funeral, Faustine Lukale, who goes by the name Baba Talisha on social media, said, “These were just random TikTokers, no-one really mobilised them. We actually thought they were attending another burial in the neighbourhood.”

The crowd of young but unruly people who came to say their last goodbyes to Chira live streamed, took videos and selfies around Chira’s gravesite.

In the past, Chira revealed to his followers that he was HIV positive, which eventually led to alcohol abuse.

King Charles reportedly delays Princess Lilibet’s 3rd birthday gift until family rift is over, says expert

The feud between the royals is ongoing and that heavily affects King Charles’ relationship with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, who received the royal titles following the passing of their great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth.

While the monarch regularly interacts with Prince William’s children, he has been deprived of the opportunity to form any kind of bond with Harry’s offspring.

As per the MirrorCharles “has had discussions” about visiting Harry and his family in the States “at some time in the future.”

Royal expert Tom Quinn spoke to the newspaper and said, “There is no doubt if it goes ahead he would build in time to visit his youngest son and his grandchildren, but there are mountains of planning to be overcome before that becomes even a remote possibility.

CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND – NOVEMBER 23: Prince Charles, Prince of Wales attends a reception with the staff, students, donors, the welfare team, and academic Fellows, to learn about the Colleges approach to student and staff wellbeing during a visit to Homerton College at the University of Cambridge, on November 23, 2021 in Cambridge, England.

“It’s certainly possible that he would make a discreet private visit to Harry and the children in California,” the royal expert added. “He is desperate to see them and hates the idea that Archie and Lily will not remember him as the warm friendly grandfather he wants to be.”

The King meeting Archie and Lili on the grounds on Britain remains a matter of discussion because their mother, Meghan Markle, has been very vocal about not wanting her children to visit their father’s homeland due to security reasons.

When she and Harry stepped down from their royal duties, they were denied royal security while in the UK, which is taxpayers-funded, as they are no longer working royals.

Lilibet Diana celebrated her 3rd birthday on June 4th. The party was reportedly held at Harry and Meghan’s Montecito, California, home and a number of celebs were in attendance, Orlando Bloom, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Oprah Winfrey, among the rest. No members from the British royal family were there to celebrate with Lili.

King Charles, although not present at his granddaughter’s birthday celebration, extended his birthday wishes along with a gift, as per the Mirror.

“King Charles had no intention of completely ignoring Lilibet’s birthday, so he has sent a gift along with a message,” royal expert Tom Quinn told the paper.

Further, Quinn claimed that the monarch has another gift for Lili, a more significant one, but he’s waiting for the family feud to be resolved before giving it to her.

“He gave Prince George a beautiful hand-made wooden swing with George’s name carved on it, and he has plans to give something similar to Lilibet, but not this year. And not unless and until the family feud dies down,” Quinn explained.

According to Quinn, the reason why there were no royals in attendance at the birthday celebration was because they didn’t receive invitations.

In the meantime, one of Harry’s good friends explained the reason behind Harry’s decision not to add any of his family members to the guest list. “Harry knew they wouldn’t come anyway, and he was pretty sure he would not have wanted them there. But he is really sad that Archie and Lilibet cannot have any kind of relationship with their cousins while his feud with his family continues,” he was reported saying.

We truly hope that the royals would be able to make amends in the time to come.

Man requests his father check his fiancée’s hymen before marriage to ensure her ‘purity’

Taking to Reddit, a woman, 25, shared a story that left many speechless.

She started by explaining that she and her fiance have been engaged for eight months and that their relationship resembled a fairy-tale from the moment they started dating.

He has always been very nice to her, showing his love and affection and showering her with attention.

She continued by saying that both he and her are virgins and that he wanted to save it for marriage. OP wasn’t fussed over the request and agreed.

They planned for a relatively small wedding, and things seemed perfect. But then, out of the blue, her fiance came forward with the most absurd request; that her father checks her hymen the night before the wedding to make sure she was still “pure.”

In the past, he mentioned something about this tradition his family held onto, but she laughed it off as it seriously sounded like a massive joke. Well, it turned out it wasn’t and her husband-to-be was dead serious.

She said there was no chance that she sat in a room with her lags wide open while his father checked on her virginity and his brothers and uncle watched, but he insisted, saying it was extremely important to him and that she had nothing to hide. Further, he said his mom did that when she was marrying his dad.

His words felt like a sharp knife. OP was shocked and started crying. She considered calling off the wedding at that precise moment, but gave herself some time to realize what had just happened.

She spent the following day at her friend’s place. Her fiance was the most charming and most loving person she has ever met and she didn’t want to lose him, but at the same time, she didn’t want to proceed with his family’s “tradition.”

After a day, the two met and she told him she won’t be letting his father checking her “purity.” The fiance got extremely mad and started accusing her of lying, saying that she was denying the “test” because she probably wasn’t even a virgin.

He lost his temper, and she was left in complete shock because she had never seen him act like that before. It was though she was speaking to someone she didn’t know.

It was a difficult decision to make, but she eventually called the wedding off.

At the time being, she’s staying with her friend, still in disbelief of everything that had taken place during the last couple of days.

She asked from fellow Redditors to tell her if she’s done the right thing.

Most of the netizens wrote she was NTA.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you think this woman made the true call when she separated from her fiance?

My stepmom wore white to my dad’s funeral along with her four adult children – The room went silent when the lawyer pulled out a letter

During a time of grief, when a man lost his loving father, his step-mom and her four adult children appeared at the funeral wearing white from head to toe.

The moment they entered the room, all eyes were on them. It was an unusual choice of attire for such a somber occasion. They were dressed as though they were attending a summer party, not the funeral of the man who gave them everything.

The man who shared the story said he approached his step-mom and asked her what she was thinking. She, however, being sassy as she has always been, waved dismissively and said that she and her children were just following along with her now late husband’s final wish.

Listening to her, the man was surprised. Why would his father want someone wearing white on his funeral?

He was a witty man. Was he having something on his mind before he passed away? Or, his step-mom Vivian was trying to prove she was now in charge of the business and all the assets. Who knew. But the man was overcome with grief and couldn’t pay much thought to Vivian and her behavior.

Before the service began, Vivian and her kids took the seats at the front row. Instead of looking sad, they all had tiny smiles on their faces.

At that moment, Joe, the best friend of the deceased, started reading a letter. Needless to say, the words he uttered shocked everyone.

“Throughout my illness, my ex-wife Martha was by my side, whereas Vivian and her kids only showed up when they needed something,” the letter read. Further, Joe revealed:”My financial advisor uncovered that Vivian and her children were stealing money from me.” The room filled with shocked whispers as Vivian’s face went pale. “I asked them to wear white so everyone could see them for who they truly are.”

Vivian and her children stormed out of the place, and their exit was a relief for the rest of the people who were there to honor the man’s father.

During the rest of the service, the attendees shared their personal stories about the late man’s life. And his son commented, “Dad always knew how to pick his moments.”

Guy texts photo of girlfriend to his mom, fails to notice ‘tiny’ detail on bed

Maison Vallance of Tennessee wanted to comply to his mom’s wish of sending her a photo of his girlfriend, Madison, wearing the blouse she bought her.

Madison was as happy to pose and Maison sent his mom the photo. But he found it so cute that he decided to share it on his social media too, not realizing there was a detail in the background that he would wanted not to expose to his followers.

“I took this picture to let my Momma know I found the shirt she got me, but Meghan is too pretty not to post it,” he wrote.

He was delighted with the photo he had taken until one of his female friends brought up the “detail” that made Maison regret not looking at the photo more carefully before sharing it with everyone online.

If you examine the photo more closely you’ll notice crimson ropes slung across the headboard behind Meghan’s head.

Well, the thought of his mother seeing those ropes in the background terrified Maison.

Once he realized his honest “mistake,” Maison decided to get the best out of the situation and joked about it by posting a fun tweet that brought a lot of laughter at his followers.

The good thing is that Maison’s family was quite humorous about the photo and the ropes that are very likely utilized for activities akin to those in 50 Shades of Grey.

These two truly make a lovely couple, don’t you agree?

Why you wake up several times a night and have a hard time falling asleep: 5 key causes

The good night sleep is crucial for proper body function. According to the School of Public Health, “sleep is essential to every process in the body, affecting our physical and mental functioning the next day, our ability to fight disease and develop immunity, and our metabolism and chronic disease risk. Sleep is truly interdisciplinary because it touches every aspect of health.”

Sleep deprivation, however, occurs more often than we think. A number of people experience problems falling asleep, a condition known as a sleep disorder or insomnia.

So what interrupts our sleep?

For one, it is definitely the stress that comes with our daily life.

We spend around 33% of our life sleeping and we should do all in our power not to throw our sleep out of its cycle.

The sleep is triggered by the hormone melatonin, the main sleep hormone which is produced by the body internally. Now since the body produces melatonin internally it is important to support the body in doing this, naturally.

What we should have in mind, is that melatonin is usually produced at around 9 p.m. because the brain gives the body signals that it is night and time for a good night sleep.

Sometimes, we disturb this process by getting exposed to bright lights during the night, such as spending time on our phones right before sleep.

Receiving these lights, we trick the brain into thinking that it is still daytime. By turning down the lights, and avoiding bright white (or blue, or green) lights at night we remind our body that it’s time to wind down.

Taking melatonin supplements gives the brain information that our body has already produced the hormone, and as a result, it won’t produce more.

In a long term, this becomes an issue because as much supplements we take, the less the body will produce it and would eventually find it hard to produce enough melatonin for us to have a quality sleep. In other words, overusing melatonin supplements can make us dependent on them.

Instead of turning to supplements when experiencing issues with our sleeping, we should use natural ingredients like herbs, flowers or other calming aids such as magnesium. This, however, doesn’t mean that we should avoid the supplements at all cause. On the contrary, they can be useful if used with caution.

For example, melatonin supplements can come in handy while travelling and changing time zones.

Certain foods have in them naturally occurring melatonin and their consumption can enhance our sleeping. Among them are pistachios, tart cherries, fatty fish, rice, goji berries, oats and mushrooms.

Waking up several times throughout the night to use the bathroom is yet another reason for sleep disturbance.

In order to completely prevent this, or at least reduce it, limit the liquids intake before going to bed.

Caffeine and alcohol intake, especially in large amounts, can affect sleep.

Having coffee after 2 pm should be avoided because the caffeine stays in our system long and keeps us awake. Alcohol on the other hand is believed to make people fall asleep faster, but it hugely impacts your REM sleep, which leads to multiple wake-ups during the night.
