Baba Talisha, a well-known photographer and TikToker, has opened up about finding happiness again after the tragic loss of his wife, Milka Faustina. Milka passed away in a devastating road accident on the Thika Superhighway on August 15, 2020, when their car collided with a stationary vehicle that had been carelessly parked on the roadside.
The accident not only claimed Milka’s life but also left their daughter, Talisha, hospitalized with lasting effects. Recalling the heartbreaking day, Baba Talisha shared that they had gone for a photoshoot and had captured beautiful moments as a family. As they made their way back home, near Kenyatta University, the tragedy unfolded. He vividly remembers the last moments, with Milka joyfully singing to their daughter. In a flash, those joyful moments turned into a nightmare, with Milka lying lifeless on the road and their daughter injured nearby.
Despite the chaos of the accident, he painfully recalled how bystanders began taking photos instead of helping. After regaining consciousness in their mangled vehicle, he frantically searched for his family, only to find Talisha lying next to her mother’s body. Milka’s final word was simply “Bae,” a heart-wrenching farewell that remains etched in his memory.
In the years following the accident, Baba Talisha has gone through a deep healing journey. Recently, he confirmed that he is now in a new relationship and feeling genuinely happy again. His new partner is not a public figure — she’s from Nyeri, not involved in the entertainment industry, and prefers to live a private life. According to him, she’s a kind and grounded person who brings peace into his life.
There have been past rumors linking him to other women, including a mortician and a fellow TikToker. However, he firmly addressed the speculations, emphasizing that not every friendship should be misinterpreted. He called out netizens for constantly trying to force narratives about his personal life, humorously noting that just because people wear similar colors doesn’t mean they belong together.
Throughout everything, Baba Talisha has continued to share his life and fatherhood journey online, remaining devoted to raising his daughter. His bond with Talisha has only grown stronger as they navigate life without Milka. Despite the sorrow of their shared loss, he’s focused on building a future filled with love, resilience, and hope.
His story is a powerful reminder of the strength it takes to move forward after unimaginable loss — to embrace happiness again without forgetting the past. Through it all, Baba Talisha continues to honor Milka’s memory while choosing to live fully for himself and his daughter.
