2 Sons, 6 Daughters: Peek Into Lives Of President William Ruto's Successful 8 Children

• President William Ruto is the father of eight kids whom he loves and adores and never misses a chance to praise them
• The first family travelled to the US recently, and Kenyans got treated to a spectacular view of Ruto's rarely-seen daughters
• The president has eight kids: two sons and six daughters, namely, Nick, June, Charlene, Stephanie, George, Cullie, Abby and Nadia

President William Ruto wears many hats, and a dotting father to his eight kids is one.

How many kids does Ruto have?

The president is a father to seven biological kids, and one adopted daughter. His kids are all successful in the various fields they have delved into.

Ruto recently apologised to one of his daughters for failing to see her vision eight years ago, and Kenyans were given a glimpse of how hands-on the most powerful man in the country is when it comes to his family.

1. Nick Ruto

Nick Ruto is the president's firstborn son. Though he prefers to live his life away from the public, he occasionally accompanies him to his political meetings.

Nick is a lawyer by profession. In February 2019, he was admitted to the bar by then-chief justice David Maraga after successfully passing his exams.

He married Evelyn Chemutai in a flashy traditional ceremony in 2022, and they immediately welcomed a son.

2. June Ruto

The president's second-born child, June, recently accompanied him on his US trip. She has an affinity for the finest things in life, as Kenyans recently discovered one of her outfits, Claudie Pierlot's collection, cost a whopping KSh 67,404.

June is a foreign diplomat who also prefers to live away from public scrutiny.

She is married to a Nigerian man, Alexander Ezenagu, who is doing well for himself as the president's son-in-law.

3. Charlene Ruto

Charlene, Ruto's third-born child, is undoubtedly the most outspoken of all his kids. Termed the sweetheart of Kenyans, she studied Communication at Daystar University and owns a flourishing foundation. She is the proud founder and patron of the SMACHS Foundation.

The president's daughter is also a lover of bees.

4. Stephanie Ruto

Stephanie is Ruto's fourth-born daughter. She prefers to live a low-key life far from the media spotlight. In 2023, however, she was captured living life with her friends in a club.

The young lady graduated from Strathmore University with a degree in law in 2019, and her family attended the 2019 graduation.

5. George Kimutai

Ruto's lastborn studied at Mang'u High School and finished his KCSE in 2016. He then joined Strathmore University, where he graduated with a degree in computer science. After clearing his studies at Strathmore University in 2021, he travelled to the UK for an aviation course.

The young man is also an entrepreneur.

6. Cullie Ruto

Kenyans have praised the president's sixth child for her killer fashion sense. Before Ruto's trip to the US, a section of Kenyans did not have a clue who Cullie was. The young lady loves living life on the down low. Not much is known about the young woman.

7. Abby Cherop

Abby only came to the limelight in 2017 after her mother, Prisca Bett, dragged Ruto to court over child support. The then-DP confirmed siring Abby and said he also looked after her.

Abby also performed exceptionally well in her national exams in 2019. She proceeded to Alliance Girls High School in 2020. Photos of her and her mum at her high school have been going around on social media.

During her dad's swearing-in in 2022, Kenyans remarked how beautiful she had grown to be.

8. Nadia Cherono

Nadia Cherono is perhaps the greatest proof that the president is a kind person. Ruto was touched by Nadia's plight, as she was abandoned as a newborn. He offered to adopt her and even gave her his mother's name, Cherono.

Did Charlene Ruto shower her family with love?

In other news, Ruto and his family jetted back into the country on May 25 after a successful state visit to the United States of America.

Ruto travelled with his gorgeous wife, Rachel, and three of their six daughters, June, Stephanie and Cullie.

Charlene, who remained behind when her family travelled, penned a sweet message to them upon returning, revealing she was proud of them.
