Former supermodel Priscilla Ray is truly enjoying motherhood fully. The super model took some time off today her schedule to chill on the poolside with her kids at Sheraton Kampala Hotel.
The mother of three said motherhood is amazing when asked how it is.
“I’m enjoying to watch my children grow and evolve with their own unique qualities. It has been a combination of experiences, emotions, hopes and dreams. It’s the most sacred journey that I have had to undertake,” She said.
When asked why she has been off the social scene, she had this to say, “I was busy having babies but I’m done now”.
The model looked stunning in bikini as she enjoyed with her three kids. She is truly back. Watch the space!!

Sheraton Kampala Hotel last week celebrated 50 years of priceless memories and vowed to create more.
The hotel has amazing views and serene spots you can choose for relaxing evenings and fun weekends, delicious food and unforgettable dining experiences that keep you coming back and the staff at the hotel is always ready and happy to serve the customers…lovely it is!!!
Sheraton Hotel, Kampala marked 50 years of existence last week.
“I congratulate its management and staff upon this feat. I also congratulate the other proprietors of other hotels like Serena, Protea, Africana and others who continue growing the hospitality industry.
The Sheraton Hotel has a monthly revenue of $1.25 million. If these seven acres on which the hotel sits were a potato garden, I do not know how much it would reap. At independence, we had small hotels that wouldn’t meet international standards.
In 1987, however, as Uganda prepared to host the PTA Conference, the NRM government refurbished Apollo (Sheraton) and Nile (Serena) hotels which had deteriorated.
I am glad that more Ugandans are moving into manufacturing and services sectors, expanding from agriculture. This will grow our economy. Again, congratulations to Sheraton Hotel,” Chief Guest President Yoweri Museveni said.
“Thank you for honoring us with your presence”, Sheraton management said.
Here are some of the moments from the event Sheraton at 50 that took place at the hotel.
Sheraton Kampala Hotel was the place to be on Friday as hundreds of guests joined in to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. Guests especially from the international community led by the Irish Community thronged the place in big numbers to enjoy the feast.
Saint Patrick’s Day was made an official Christian feast day in the early 17th century and is observed by the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion (especially the Church of Ireland), the Eastern Orthodox Church, and the Lutheran Church.
The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland, and celebrates the heritage and culture of the Irish in general. Celebrations generally involve public parades and festivals, and the wearing of green attire or shamrocks (a young spring clover with 3 broad leafs).
Christians also attend church services and the Lenten restrictions on eating and drinking alcohol are lifted for the day, which has encouraged and propagated the holiday’s tradition of excessive alcohol consumption.
Although the holiday is relatively new to the us, with a growing international community living in Uganda and not to mention the general trend of globalization we find ourselves also celebrating the occasion in support of the Irish community – it also presents us with a great opportunity to promote our restaurants and bars, partnering with Uganda Breweries to offer great deals on beverages.
Sheraton Kampala’s new Executive Chef wasted no time in capturing the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day with a special menu dedicated to the occasion… with a generous amount of Guinness. Enjoy Pictorial moments!!
