Kenyan R&B sensation Otile Brown is nursing emotional wounds after his Ethiopian ex-girlfriend, Nabayet, also known as Nabbi, walked down the aisle in a grand wedding ceremony over the weekend. The stunning bride shared short clips of her big day on her Instagram Stories, offering fans a glimpse into the lavish celebration filled with elegance, tradition, and undeniable joy.
Dressed in a glowing white gown, Nabayet looked radiant as she exchanged vows in what appeared to be a meticulously planned and vibrant affair. Though the videos were brief and soon disappeared, they were enough to stir social media and draw attention to her new chapter — especially from her former lover.
In a seemingly emotional reaction, Otile Brown took to Instagram with a cryptic message, revealing his disbelief at the timing of Nabayet’s wedding. “How does she get married after mentioning her on my new song dropping tomorrow? Now I feel dumb,” he wrote in his Stories. The post sparked widespread speculation that Otile might still have lingering feelings for the woman who once played a key role in his life.
Their relationship, which began with excitement and was widely admired by fans, ended in early 2022. At the time, Otile told followers they had attempted to reconcile but mutually agreed to go their separate ways. He emphasized that they parted respectfully and had no bad blood between them. Even after the breakup, Otile occasionally referenced Nabayet in his music, suggesting that her memory remained close to his heart.
Following his recent post, fans flooded social media with mixed reactions. While some sympathized with the heartbreak he appeared to be going through, others found humor in the situation. Comments ranged from jokes about Otile having to rewrite his upcoming song to sarcastic remarks about him using the news for publicity. Some fans also speculated that the emotional post was a calculated move to draw attention to his new release.
Meanwhile, Nabayet has maintained silence following the brief glimpse into her wedding. Her calm demeanor and quiet celebration suggested she had fully moved on and was ready for this new chapter of her life.
Otile’s name has often been linked with romantic drama, and this isn’t the first time his love life has made headlines. Rapper Ssaru previously admitted to having a crush on him and encouraged him to make a move — but he never did, prompting her to move on.
As Nabayet begins her married life, Otile is left to reflect and, perhaps, find creative inspiration in heartbreak once again. Fans know that some of his most heartfelt songs come from personal pain, and many now wait to see what emotional depth his upcoming track will deliver.
