The once–glamorous friendship between Ugandan socialite Katrina Nilzero and media personality Sheilah Gashumba has taken a sharper, more public turn, despite both women previously insisting that their fallout was simply a matter of “growing apart.” Recent comments and online reactions suggest that what was once a quiet drift has now evolved into a tense, emotionally charged rift.m
For years, Katrina and Sheilah were inseparable — attending events together, sharing glamorous photos, and publicly supporting each other’s projects. Their friendship symbolized Kampala’s young, stylish, and influential social scene.
But by late 2024, fans began noticing the distance. No more joint appearances. No more Instagram tags. No more sisterhood energy.
When asked about the fallout, Katrina downplayed the drama, saying “People outgrow each other,”
She also dismissed rumors that their drift had anything to do with singer Rickman Manrick.
Despite Katrina’s earlier attempts to keep things neutral, the situation escalated when she appeared to take a sharper tone in later interviews. According to MBU, Katrina allegedly referred to Sheilah as a “dummy,”
This shift from “we just grew apart” to subtle jabs has made fans question whether the friendship ended more painfully than either woman initially admitted.
She said that they have talked in three years and she is happy with how things are actually going on between them.
