Kenyan producer Jacky B and influencer Brenda Michelle have officially confirmed their split after years of marriage. The couple, who have two children together, had long been regarded as one of the most admired duos in the Kenyan entertainment scene, with their love story often shared on social media.
Brenda Michelle, who has since risen to become one of Kenya’s most followed TikTokers, addressed their separation in a heartfelt post. Fans had begun to notice that the couple, who once regularly shared family moments on social media, had stopped posting about each other in recent months. Michelle, in response to the growing curiosity, took to her platforms to set the record straight.
“I have and continue to receive many questions regarding my private life, including my marriage,” Michelle said in her post. She then went on to confirm that her marriage to Jacky B had ended some time ago, though it had taken her a while to publicly acknowledge the separation.
“My marriage has been over for some time now, and while it has taken a while to publicly acknowledge this, I believe now is the right moment to do so,” she explained.
Michelle, who has gained significant recognition for her TikTok content, asked her followers for privacy during this difficult time and thanked them for their ongoing support. “This is a deeply personal journey, and I kindly ask for your continued respect and privacy as I move forward. Thank you for walking with me, for your love, and for your support,” she added.
The news of Jacky B and Michelle’s split follows a string of similar announcements in the Kenyan celebrity scene. Recently, Lynne Njihia confirmed her breakup with influencer Eric Omondi, citing peace of mind as the main reason for the separation. Comedian Mulamwah and Ruth K, the mother of his child, also made headlines with their split, though some initially suspected it was a publicity stunt for his comedy show.
As more celebrity couples reveal their struggles, fans are left to wonder about the future of relationships in the public eye.
For now, Brenda Michelle is focusing on her career and personal growth, while fans continue to support her journey.
