After commenting on their reality show, "Kyallo Kulture," Mercy Kyallo, the sister of media icon Betty Kyallo, has been in a social media uproar.
The comment was made about her sister Gloria's partner, Ken, and the following discourse has sparked debate among fans.
Gloria's boyfriend Ken was present in this specific instance as the three sisters conversed openly.
Mercy didn't think twice about asking about Gloria's perceived "masculine energy" as that was the subject.
"Gloria, you have some masculine energy going on," Mercy said to Ken. How do you handle her manly energy, Ken?
Did you read this?
Given Gloria's inclination to taunt or "bully" other ladies, Ken's witty answer was that he allows her to hang out with her female pals.
Betty said, jokingly pointing out that Gloria also uses her teasing skills on Ken.
Gloria also mistreats Ken, Betty remarked.
When Ken casually referred to Gloria as "Bro," the conversation took an unusual turn.
Ken told Gloria, "Bro, I watch how you interact with your pals.
Betty continued, "The relationship is probably on shaky footing whenever a guy starts calling his partner "bro," to laugh.
Mercy responded with a comical twist, saying that she only uses the term "bro" to refer to persons she deems to be "broke," meaning that if someone is called "bro," they must need money.
Gloria chimed in with the amusing suggestion that they count how many men Mercy has referred to as "bros" in her life.
Although the program may have been meant to be humorous family fun, some viewers appear to have had a problem with the setting in which Mercy's statement was made.
One fan expressed concern about the perceived disrespect for Ken, and the tension between Betty and Ken and social media platforms erupted with opposing viewpoints.
"The disrespect, Gloria seems annoyed. Betty seems not to like Ken."
Mercy commented, saying Ken was part of their family.
Another fan said the disrespect was too loud.
Mercy Kyallo responded:
"Hey, we haven't said Ken is broke. Listen carefully."
Kyallo Kulture season one and 2 are available on Showmax.
