Jared Okello: The First Love

Akothee’s first publicized relationship was with Jared Okello, the father of her daughters and her ex-husband. Their union began at a shockingly young age, as she tied the knot with Jared at the tender age of 14 while still a student. This early marriage led to the birth of her first child at 14 and four more children by the age of 17. Tragically, one of her sons passed away at just 8 months old due to a lack of funds for medical care.
“I had only 3 children but I had dropped 4 in my 10 years of marriage, one passed on at 8 months. I didn’t have money to take him to the hospital early enough, or maybe it was God’s time,” Akothee shared in a past post.
Akothee candidly admitted to causing her mother immense frustration with her rebellious and indisciplined behavior during her youth. She recounted running away from school, getting married at 14, and making her mother appear foolish in front of colleagues, workmates, and the community.
Papa Oyoo: A Life-Changing Encounter

After her divorce, Akothee crossed paths with Papa Oyoo, her “mzungu” baby daddy, who is said to have transformed her life dramatically. Papa Oyoo rescued her from a challenging situation and turned her into a queen. Akothee expressed her deep gratitude to him, emphasizing that no woman had ever replaced her in his heart.
The pair first met in Mombasa in 2006 when Akothee was a taxi driver and a mother of three. However, their relationship began to strain when Papa Oyoo appeared to prioritize their son, Oyoo, over others, leading to tensions and possessiveness.
Markus: A Love Fraught with Challenges

Akothee also had an affair with Markus, a foreigner from Switzerland who fathered her child known as Elder Son Ojwang. Akothee humorously noted that women almost “left with her kidney” due to Markus’s popularity among them. Despite getting pregnant by Markus, their relationship took a sour turn when he abandoned her in Switzerland while she was nine months pregnant.
“I have never allowed my challenges to cover my beautiful smile, no one knew I was thrown out of Switzerland 9 months pregnant to come back to Africa, his exact words ‘Go back to Africa I have no time, energy or family to take care of you. I am not ready for a family now, you have too many children and a man cannot fall in love at 50.’ These words penetrated deep inside my stomach,” she revealed.
It was during this challenging period that Akothee returned to Kenya and later met Papa Oyoo, who rescued her from dire circumstances.
Brown Mauzo: Business Over Romance
As Akothee’s fame grew, she was rumored to have been romantically involved with Brown Mauzo, with photos of them kissing circulating on social media. However, Brown Mauzo clarified that their relationship was purely business-oriented, centered around their shared talent and music strategy. “I have never been in a romantic relationship with Akothee,” Brown Mauzo asserted.
Nelly Oaks: Eight Years of Romance
Akothee then turned her attention to her manager, Nelly Oaks, and the two flooded social media with romantic photos and sweet compliments. Despite their eight years of romance, they eventually decided to part ways. Akothee revealed that her separation from Nelly Oaks led to a period of depression, though she insisted their friendship remained intact.
Mr. Schweizer: A Mysterious Marriage

Akothee introduced another Swiss man known as Mr. Schweizer, with whom she had a mysterious wedding that garnered significant attention. However, cracks began to surface in their marriage, prompting Akothee to omit her marital title, “Mrs. Schweizer,” from her social media pages. Akothee responded to Dr. Ofweneke’s comments about her divorce, hinting at a potential eighth wedding.
In the world of Akothee, love has been an arduous journey filled with ups and downs, heartaches, and new beginnings. As the singer navigates the twists and turns of her love life, one thing is certain: Akothee is not giving up on love anytime soon, no matter how many times she walks down the aisle. The question remains: what will her next chapter in the book of love bring? Stay tuned.
