The couple, who have a daughter together, had often shared moments of joy and affection on social media, making the news of their separation a surprise for many fans.
“Hello good morning. We are suddened to let you know that Marya Okoth and YY Comedian will no longer be together due to unavoidable circumstances. Thank you for your love and support through our union. We expect individual privacy from each one of you. Thanks.
Regards,” Maryan wrote on her Instagram story.
Although they have chosen to keep the specific reasons for their breakup private, the announcement has sparked conversation about their lives and YY’s personal journey through relationships and heartbreak.

In the wake of his breakup with Maryan, YY remains committed to his work in the entertainment industry. He continues to be a significant figure in Kenyan comedy, with his performances on popular shows like Churchill cementing his place as one of the country’s leading comedians. As he moves forward from this recent personal challenge, his fans are likely to see him continue to bring humor and inspiration to his audience, despite the difficulties he faces in his private life.
