Celebrities are most of the time forced to deal with hatred and deal with different types of social media characters.
It is worse if they are caught up in a scandal and everyone throws in their opinion. Funny enough, social media users never wait for scandals, they throw in their nasty comments whenever they feel like.
Although some celebrities have learnt to have thick skin and can boldly defend themselves, other celebrities end up hurt or depressed after endless trolls.
A good example of a Kenyan celebrity who has proven to have a strong enduring spirit is Willy Paul. The gospel artist was on the receiving end after his transition to secular music but has managed to thrive despite the mockery.
Here are some of the celebrities who were forced to quit social media after being trolled.

2.Mr Seed and Nimo Gachuiri
Celebrity couple Mr Seed and Nimo Gachuiri disabled their Instagram pages after allegations that Mr Seed cheated on her.

3.HopeKid and DK Kwenye Beat’
