A new chapter has officially begun for actress and digital content creator Marya Okoth, who has tied the knot with her new husband, Okula Jack. In a move that surprised her many followers, the couple celebrated their union in a series of discreet events in Ugenya, Siaya County. Photos and videos from the ceremonies, which were held under the radar on May 31st and August 3rd, only began to surface on social media over the past weekend, revealing a beautifully low-key affair that was a stark contrast to her previous high-profile relationship.
The couple honored their roots by first holding a traditional wedding that was rich in cultural flair. Marya exuded elegance in a striking leopard-print dress paired with a feathered headpiece, while her husband, Okula, complemented her style with a refined light beige traditional outfit. The second ceremony was a religious affair, with a video showing what appeared to be a church wedding where guests were captured singing from an SDA hymnal, confirming the two events that marked their union. The quiet nature of these celebrations has since become a major talking point, with many netizens expressing admiration for how the couple managed to keep their relationship entirely private.
This new beginning for Marya follows her widely publicized breakup with comedian YY on September 6th, 2024. The former couple, who share a daughter and were very open about their parenting journey, had a separation that came as a shock to fans. With that chapter now closed, it is clear that Marya has embraced a more private approach to her personal life.
The identity of her new husband, Okula Jack, remained largely unknown to the public until friends began sharing congratulatory posts online. From these social media updates, it has been revealed that Okula is a lawyer with connections to the Ministry of Education. One of his close friends and a best man at the wedding shared an emotional tribute to the couple, celebrating their union and emphasizing the strong support system behind them. The post, which celebrated both wedding dates, noted that the events were "top notch," proving that even a low-key affair can be filled with deep meaning and close-knit support.
The surprise news has sparked a flurry of reactions online. While a number of users have shared heartfelt congratulations for the new couple, many others have expressed their curiosity about how Marya managed to keep her relationship so private in a digital age often defined by oversharing.
