Popular Kenyan actress Jackie Matubia has confirmed that she has broken up with her husband, actor Blessing Lungaho.
The confirmation came in a post on Matubia’s Instagram account on July 25, 2023. In the post, Matubia simply stated that she is a “proud single mother of two.”
Matubia and Lungaho had been dating for almost two years and had a daughter together, Zendaya Nyambura, who was born in January 2023.
The reason for the breakup is not yet known, but the couple had been rumored to be having problems for some time. In April 2023, Matubia posted a cryptic message on Instagram that hinted at trouble in her relationship.
“Sometimes you have to let go of the people you love the most,” she wrote. “Not because you don’t care, but because they don’t care about you.”
Matubia and Lungaho met on the set of the popular TV show “Zora,” where they played the characters of Nana and Madiba. They went public with their relationship in February 2022, when Matubia announced that she was pregnant with Lungaho’s child.
The couple’s breakup has come as a shock to many of their fans, who were rooting for them to get married. However, Matubia has said that she is “doing well” and is “focused on raising her children.”
“I’m a proud single mother of two,” she wrote in her Instagram post. “I’m doing well and I’m focused on raising my children. Thank you for your support.”
It remains to be seen whether Matubia and Lungaho will reconcile in the future. However, for now, it seems that they are both moving on with their lives.
