It has now emerged that Marya got married in a colourful traditional wedding in Ugenya, Siaya county.
Photos of the traditional wedding circulated on social media and caught many fans off guard.
Who's Marya Okoth's husband?
This is the question many have. Since her separation from YY, the beautiful actress had not introduced a man on social media. Now, she is officially married to Okula Jack, who is the Technical (Legal) Advisor to the Principal Secretary, Ministry of Education, State Department for Basic Education, Professor Julius K. Bitok.
One of his friends, who was part of the groomsmen, took to Facebook to congratulate him with photos from the traditional wedding.
He revealed there had been two events: one on May 31 and another on August 3.
"Sigomre- Ugunja, Siaya County. We celebrate you, my brother Okula Jack. You have been such a dependable and high-ranking member within our KITCHEN circle. Love wins. Both events of May 31 and August 3 were top notch 👌. Full support system from us to the end," David Ochola wrote.

How did Marya Okoth, hubby dress for wedding?
For their traditional wedding, the couple were dressed in traditional attire. Marya wore a leopard-print dress and a headpiece with feathers, and her lucky charm wore a similar light beige outfit.
A short video captured them singing SDA hymnal song in a church, confirming that the wedding was presided over in a church.
Other photos also confirmed that a church wedding had taken place.
Speaking exclusively to TUKO.co.ke, Nairobi-based relationship coach Pamela Wambui weighed in on the public's mixed reactions to Marya's swift marriage following her split from YY Comedian.
Wambui added that while fans may speculate or project their feelings onto such developments, ultimately, the individuals involved are the only ones who fully understand their journey.
“When a public figure like Marya chooses to keep her relationship private then unveils a major life event like marriage, it challenges the expectations fans form based on the public relationship they once knew. It’s important to recognise that healing and moving on doesn’t follow a timeline set by outsiders, especially in situations where children are involved and emotional wellbeing is prioritised,” she told TUKO.co.ke.
How did netizens react to Marya Okoth's wedding news?
The wedding elicited mixed reactions among netizens, with many, especially women, congratulating Marya for moving on immediately.

Pauline Momanyi:

Jeffery OkumuSnr JaNam:
