Observers noted that Kanyari appeared withdrawn and visibly distant throughout the ceremony, raising concerns about his emotional state and his relationship with the children.
During the service, Kanyari kept mostly to himself, offering few interactions with those around him.
His body language reflected sadness, confusion, and a sense of displacement, fuelling speculation that he felt sidelined.
At one point, he expressed his frustration over the seating arrangement, lamenting that he should have been seated beside his children during their mother’s farewell.
His comments revealed a father battling internal conflict while feeling excluded during one of the most difficult moments of his life.
What caught the attention of many, however, was the children’s visible detachment from him.
Throughout the ceremony, they remained close to relatives and to Tash—the man who has been a prominent figure in their lives in recent years.
Their comfort around Tash and emotional distance from Kanyari was evident, suggesting that their bond with him has grown stronger with time and consistency.
Child psychologists note that such behaviour is common when children spend more time with one parental figure than another, especially after a separation.
It does not necessarily reflect rejection but rather familiarity and emotional security.
For Kanyari, the moment appeared painful and deeply personal. As he navigated grief for his former partner while longing for closeness with his children, the distance was a reminder of the complex realities blended families face.
As the country continues to mourn Betty Bayo, many hope that the days ahead will allow the family—both biological and blended—to heal and create a supportive environment for the children she leaves behind.
