Gospel singer Mercy Masika has opened up about the unexpected way she found love, revealing that she had completely given up on relationships before her husband David Mugoro walked into her life.
In a podcast-style interview shared on Facebook on November 12, 2026, Masika sat down for a relaxed conversation filmed on a grey couch set against a bright yellow and cream backdrop.
What followed was a candid and warm account of her love story that has clearly resonated with many fans.

What caught her attention was not his looks but his prophetic gift; he was writing a diary, and his entries were strikingly accurate.
She recalled receiving repeated messages from him after exchanging numbers and being so impressed that she agreed to meet him in person.
Before that first date, however, she had spent an entire week at Katoloni, a well-known prayer destination, specifically asking God to send her a husband.
The two eventually met at a restaurant in town; she believed it may have been called "Green Corner," though she was uncertain, and Masika says she knew on that very first date that David was the one.

Despite feeling certain about him, there was one thing that briefly gave her pause. David was not tall, and Masika admitted that his height was the only aspect she had to come to terms with.
She even shared that she recently spoke with someone who had broken up with a partner over the same concern, noting that height preferences in relationships are more common than people might think.
"He was correcting every other thing, just the height," she said with a laugh. But she added that over time, she realised he was not as short as she had initially thought, a reflection, perhaps, of how much her feelings had shifted her perception.
Masika, who is widely celebrated for her gospel music across Kenya and East Africa, rarely gives such personal glimpses into her private life, making this interview a rare and refreshing moment for her fans.
