Renowned human rights activist, author, and media personality Janet Mbugua recently celebrated her 41st birthday in a heartfelt and joyous way, sharing the milestone with her twin brother, Timothy Mbugua. The mother of two reflected on life’s unpredictability, expressing gratitude for the journey and the lessons that come with it.
Taking to her social media, Janet shared an emotional post, writing, “It’s my birthday! A special day I am honored to share with my twin @thementivist happy birthday, Tim!” She extended her gratitude for her sons, family, and friends, emphasizing the importance of cherishing life’s precious moments.
“I’m incredibly grateful for the gift of life and the countless moments I get to spend with my sons, family, and friends. I thank God for turning life’s curveballs into valuable lessons, even though I struggle with reconciling life’s uncertainties,” she shared. Accompanied by celebratory hashtags like #GratefulHeart and #MomentsThatMatter, Janet radiated joy, holding colorful party balloons with an infectious smile.
This year, Janet opted for a more understated birthday celebration compared to last year’s grand photoshoot, where she and Timothy dazzled in matching black tuxedos. However, after much deliberation, she decided to put together a simple yet elegant celebration, complete with stunning makeup by @mercymuthonie and photos by @cyrus.kanyi. Her fans eagerly await the reveal of her birthday cake during her Sunday show, #ItsOfficialWithJanetMbugua.
In a throwback to 2017, Janet and Timothy shared insights into their twin bond in a candid video. They humorously recalled questions they often receive, such as whether they’re identical, despite being opposite genders. “I think it’s pretty hard for a boy and a girl to be identical,” Janet joked, while Timothy quipped, “I’d look terrible in a wig.”
The duo also reflected on the emotional connection between twins. “There are times you just sense something’s up and check in,” Timothy noted, highlighting the unique bond they share.
Janet’s birthday celebration is a testament to her joy, gratitude, and strong family ties a beautiful reminder of life’s blessings.
