Barbara Kyagulanyi (born September 7, 1984) is a Ugandan philanthropist and author. She is the wife to notable Ugandan singer and politician Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu, alias Bobi Wine.[1][2] She is the author of "Golden Memories of a Village Belle" published in 2012.[3][4] She also co-owns and manages One love beach, a resort and recreational facility which was founded by her husband- Bobi Wine.

In 2013, she founded Caring Hearts Uganda, an NGO which focuses on adolescent girls, HIV/AIDS education and menstrual hygiene.[5][6] The NGO has donated infrastructure and resources to schools for marginalized and internally displaced children.[7]

In 2018, Barbie campaigned for her husband Bobi Wine to become a member of parliament and later for presidency in 2020 with her manifesto about women's rights.[8] She fought for the release of Bobi Wine when he was jailed at the Nalufenya detention facility during his presidential campaign in 2020. Both were put under house arrest without a trial by Ugandan security forces in 2021 due to fears Bobi's public presence could incite riots. Eleven days later the house arrest was ruled illegal.[9][10]

Their campaign for presidency was depicted in the documentary Bobi Wine: The People's President which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature in 2024.[11]
