A couple of months ago, the weddings of Daddy Owen and Bob Collymore earned quite some attention as both men did face Mount Kenya in their choice for brides.
It even became a subject for discussion just what did the Kikuyu ladies have that saw them bag one illustrious man after the other.

A number of celebrities especially men and a couple of ladies have opted for interracial marriages with many picking their partners from the West and others going Oriental. Here are 7 such celebrities who crossed races for love.
