It’s Monday evening when we get to Body by Design, a specialist hospital that exclusively offers plastic and cosmetic surgery in Kenya, situated on Riara road. A small bird has just whispered to us that a special client, actor and former socialite Risper Faith, has just checked in for special treatment.
Our curiosity is drawn by the fact that for two years now, Risper has been off public limelight and only appears on her social media. On the corridors, we bump into her husband Brian Muiruri, the father to her two-year-old son.
