"The good thing about not having kids is that you can afford nice things. I am free," she said.
The Mombasa based actress revealed she was dating but not ready to settle now.
"For me, marriage is neither here nor there. I want to get married but not now. I'll probably start thinking about marriage when am 50. After 50 years old...yeah that's when I can start considering marriage," she said.
Ebby added;
"For now I just want to enjoy my life. After 50 it is more for companionship not for anything else. Nitakuwa nimeishi maisha yangu sasa nataka kutulia that's when I'll get married. Sahii sitaki kutulia bado."

The thespian also said that she is still learning herself knowing who she really is and wouldn't want to start focusing on someone else hence why she doesn't want to have kids.
"I was looking at my life and I was like, I can't even afford me, how am I going to afford a child?" I feel like when you have a kid then your life you stop focusing on yourself and start focusing on another human being," she said.
Ebby continued:
"Nafeel bado sijajijua na sitaki kufa kama sijijui (I'm still learning myself and don't want to die before knowing me) and I don't want to dedicate the rest of my life serving someone else, I want to dedicate my life serving me."
