Risper Faith announces arrival of her 2nd child with sweet tribute

Influencer and entrepreneur Risper Faith has announced the arrival of her second child, sharing a heartfelt tribute as she celebrated the newest addition to her family.

Risper shared the joyful news on Saturday, August 1, 2026, with a sweet message to her newborn, calling the baby a blessing and a beautiful part of her family’s story.

“One week of pure bliss. One week of falling more in love with you every single day. You have filled our hearts with a love we never knew was possible and made our world brighter in every way,” she wrote.

The entrepreneur welcomed the baby with her partner, expressing gratitude for the new chapter of motherhood and referring to the child as their greatest blessing.

“Welcome to the world, Americana. You are our greatest blessing, our answered prayer, and the most beautiful part of our story. We love you endlessly,” she added.

Preparing for motherhood in the United States

The announcement comes after Risper had been documenting her pregnancy journey while preparing to welcome her baby in the United States.

During a TikTok live session, the entrepreneur opened up about the high cost of giving birth in America, cautioning people who assume maternity care abroad is affordable.

Risper revealed that a normal delivery in the US can cost about Ksh2 million, while a Caesarean section may rise to between Ksh5 million and Ksh6 million depending on factors such as insurance coverage.

“Giving birth in America is expensive. A normal delivery is about Ksh2 million, and a Caesarean section can cost around Ksh5 million,” she said.

She questioned how people without insurance or proper healthcare coverage manage maternity expenses, saying many underestimate the financial burden involved.

In May, the influencer opened up about the challenges of navigating her third trimester while living in the United States, describing sleepless nights, physical discomfort and the mental pressure of preparing for the baby’s arrival.

She shared that late-night struggles included insomnia, frequent trips to the bathroom, discomfort when turning in bed, and the pressure of organising everything before delivery.
