Friendship goals on display as Sheryl Gabriella surprises Hanna Benta with gifts

By , February 1, 2026

TikToker Hanna Benta has reacted emotionally after her best friend and fellow TikToker, Sheryll Gabriella, sent a delivery of heartfelt gifts to her in celebration of their enduring friendship.

In a video Hanna shared on her TikTok page on Saturday, January 31, 2026, she showed off the full list of items that Sheryll had sent to her house and expressed that, truly, their friendship was blossoming and growing stronger.

Among the items included were a cake neatly packed inside a box, a full box of assorted chocolates of various flavours, and a bouquet of special flowers, leaving Hanna, who recently welcomed a child, deeply emotional.

While sharing the video, Hanna used the popular One Call song by Otile Brown as the background music and focused on the part of the song that speaks about genuine and meaningful friendship.

She then danced in the video as she held all the items at once and tagged Sheryll in the caption, saying that she was extremely grateful and almost in tears because of the thoughtful surprise.

“@sheryllgabriella Thank you so much,” Hanna commented, adding crying emojis to the video to further express her emotions.

Ex-hubby drama

The development comes just weeks after Hanna’s ex-hubby, TikToker Captain Sammir, strongly dismissed claims that he leaked her private photos.

Speaking in a TikTok live on Sunday, January 4, 2026, the USA-based content creator questioned the basis of the claims, insisting he had no involvement whatsoever in the circulation of any private images linked to his former partner.

“The first thing I am asking myself is, where exactly has she been exposed, as people are claiming?” Sammir asked.

He explained that the photos in question were shared privately between Hanna Benta and another TikToker, Bosskhan, and maintained that any private exchanges between them did not concern him.

Sammir emphasised that he no longer has any relationship with Hanna Benta and therefore could not be responsible for content shared within her personal circles.

“The photos being mentioned were shared privately between Hanna and Bosskhan. Photos that people share among themselves do not involve me. If Hanna chose to share her private photos with anyone on WhatsApp, that is her personal decision and none of my business. I have no relationship with her,” he said.

Sammir revealed that he was travelling with his new in-laws at the time the controversy erupted and only learned of the situation through online chatter accusing him of exposing Hanna Benta.

He described the experience as deeply unsettling, especially given that he had just come off an emotionally intense period in the United States and was now trying to settle into married life.

“At the moment, I am with my new in-laws, and we are travelling to Nairobi, and then all of a sudden I start hearing claims that I should be arrested, that I exposed Hanna. That is not something I can do. Even if I were bewitched, I could not do that. I have just come from dealing with very serious issues in the US, and now I return only to find more trouble. I cannot be part of that,” he said.

Marion Naipei’s lookalike

In other news, Hanna Benta lashed out at sections of Kenyans who had tagged her in viral posts circulating online featuring Marion Naipei, the woman who was recently exposed by a man in a club.

Hanna warned people against saying that they looked like sisters because of their resemblance and insisted that she is a morally upright woman, unlike Naipei.

“We might look like sisters, but the CV is different,” Hanna wrote.

She added that, unlike Naipei, she prefers to keep all her personal matters private and insisted that she also does not condone the habit of women walking around while improperly dressed.

“I keep my business private and my clothes on,” Hanna shared.
