Mr Henrie draws the line as Evelyn Mic presses him on baby mama

What the report says
Ugandan media personality and events host Mr Henrie, whose real name is Henry Arinaitwe, publicly pushed back on questions about his family life during an appearance on NRG Radio. According to Sqoop Uganda, presenter Evelyn Mic Masika pressed him to identify the mothers of his children, but he refused to discuss them on air and said their identities were private.
In the exchange, Mr Henrie said he is a father of two boys and described parenthood as a blessing, while making clear that the women involved are not part of his public story. He repeatedly declined to reveal names or confirm any further details, even after the presenter suggested returning later with more information.
The article says the remarks fit a pattern of Mr Henrie keeping his relationships away from public scrutiny. It also recalls earlier comments he made in a separate interview about being grateful to be a father, as well as past online speculation linking him to a colleague’s maternity leave and child. Sqoop Uganda did not present any new confirmation about those rumours, only noting that he had previously avoided directly addressing them. The episode highlights the tension between celebrity curiosity and personal privacy in Uganda’s entertainment media.
