Veteran radio queen Cess Mutungi is stepping into the hot seat as host of the highly anticipated two-part reunion of The Mommy Club NBO, streaming exclusively on Showmax on 29 August and 5 September 2025.
The announcement comes just days after the show dropped its season finale, wrapping up an 11-week run that saw The Mommy Club NBO dominate streaming charts and ignite online conversations across Kenya.
“I have always believed in women speaking their truth – loudly,” said Cess. “We’ll be tackling everything everyone is thinking but too afraid to ask. My role is to hold everyone accountable and get the answers fans have been waiting for. Rest assured, no stone will be left unturned.”
The reunion will see Cess sit down with the show’s five leading moms—Jackie Matubia, Ofentse Tsipa, Lynne Njihia, Pierra Makena, and Carey Priscilla—to unpack the season’s most dramatic moments, lingering feuds, and unanswered questions.
“Having Cess Mutungi host the reunion is the perfect full-circle moment,” said Eugene Mbugua, Executive Producer at D&R Studios. “She is bold, dynamic, and unapologetically real — exactly what The Mommy Club NBO stands for. Viewers should prepare for a reunion that is every bit as compelling as the season itself.”
A legend of the airwaves, Cess rose to fame as the voice behind Classic 105’s Drive Show and Capital FM’s Jam 98.4, which she co-hosted and produced. Known for her signature husky voice, infectious laugh, and fearless interviewing style, she’s built a reputation for never shying away from tough conversations—making her the ideal host to steer the reunion’s emotional rollercoaster.
