The couple revealed the news on Thursday, November 12, through a high-production cinematic reel created in collaboration with Fiesta House Maternity. The video, titled "La fiesta 2004", is styled as a 2000s-era love story set in Nairobi and is labelled part 2 of 3. Musician Kagwe Mungai also features in the reel alongside the couple.
The reel kicks off at a retro house party complete with a disco ball, gold sequin tables, hockey jerseys, baggy jeans and afros. The scene then jumps forward in time, before the final segment, labelled "the visit to the house of bumps – fiesta house", captures Dorea in a full maternity photoshoot.
She poses in an olive-green two-piece outfit, gold chain around her waist, bump proudly on display. DJ Dibul joins her with his hand resting on her belly. The video closes with the Fiesta House Maternity tagline.
The announcement ended months of speculation that began after fans spotted what looked like a baby bump during the couple's Zanzibar trip. The couple had shared moments from their getaway, including an outing where they were seen interacting with turtles.
When asked directly at an event on Tuesday, September 29, 2026, Dorea neither confirmed nor denied it, saying: "Let's wait and see, maybe or maybe not. You never know, but I'm 100 per cent ready."
Now, fans know she was ready. The 2000s theme was a perfect fit. It took Kenyans back to the era of baggy jeans, afros, disco balls, and house parties. Many fans said the announcement was not just a pregnancy reveal. It was a short film. It was creative. It was nostalgic. It was Dorea and Dibul in their element.
Their first daughter, Shiku, is getting a new sibling. The couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl, on March 24, 2025, having announced the pregnancy in January that year. They later named her Tipharah Meleah Wanjiku Ndegwa, fondly called Shiku.
The pair have deliberately shielded her face from the public, even in her first birthday photos taken in March 2026. Dorea has said they are not in a hurry to reveal her face. She said God's time is always the best. When the time comes, they will reveal.
Fans have flooded the couple's pages with congratulations. They say Shiku is going to be a big sister. They say the family is growing beautifully. They say Dorea and Dibul are parenting goals.
Fellow celebrities have also sent love. They say the 2000s-themed shoot was genius. They say the couple always does things differently. They say they cannot wait to meet baby number two.
Supporters of the couple say the announcement shows how far they have come. They say Dorea and Dibul have faced rumours, gossip, and public scrutiny. They say they have stayed together. They say they have built a family. They say baby number two is proof of their love and commitment.
They say Dorea, best known for her role in the Citizen TV drama Maria, has been open about motherhood. She has talked about the realities of pregnancy, childbirth, and raising a daughter. She has talked about her difficult delivery with Shiku, revealing she endured 18 hours of labour before undergoing emergency surgery. That honesty, fans say, makes her relatable.
The couple did not reveal the baby's gender or due date in the announcement. That has left fans guessing. Some say it will be a boy. Others say it will be another girl. Others say it does not matter. A healthy baby is what matters.
For now, the focus is on celebration. Baby number two is on the way. Shiku is getting a sibling. Dorea and Dibul are growing their family.
Congratulations to the growing family!
