Kenyan actress and digital content creator Marya Okoth and her husband, lawyer Jack Okula, have marked one year of marriage with a heartfelt message celebrating their journey together.
The couple shared their anniversary message on Thursday, November 12, 2026, reflecting on the memories, lessons and experiences they have gathered since exchanging their wedding vows.
In the message, Marya and Jack revealed that they had known each other for one year, 11 months and one week. They described their relationship as a journey filled with precious memories and challenges, while expressing gratitude to God for guiding them through their first year as a married couple.
Their anniversary came a day after they marked one year since their white wedding, which took place on November 11, 2025, in an intimate ceremony attended by close family members and friends.
The wedding attracted attention after photographs emerged showing Marya in an elegant white gown alongside her husband, who wore a smart suit. Among those who celebrated the couple was Principal Secretary for Internal Security Raymond Omollo, who shared a photograph from the occasion and wished them a lifetime of love, peace and shared purpose.
The white wedding followed their traditional Luo ceremony held in Ugenya, Siaya County, on August 3, 2025. The event featured traditional outfits, with Marya wearing a leopard-print ensemble and an elaborate feathered headpiece, while Jack appeared in a light beige outfit.
Videos and photographs from the traditional celebration circulated online, showing family members and friends joining the couple in marking the occasion.
Marya, who gained popularity through her acting and digital content creation, has generally kept details of her relationship with Jack away from the public eye.
Her marriage came after her separation from comedian YY, with whom she shares a daughter. The two announced the end of their relationship in September 2024.
As they celebrate their first anniversary, Marya and Jack's message reflects their appreciation for the experiences that have shaped their marriage and the faith they say has sustained them.
