Top 5 Celebrities Who Married Older Spouses, But Are Doing Fine

When they say age is just a number in love matters, you better believe them. But Who are Kenyans? We cannot let people whose spouses are older be.

The women falling for older men are slay queens hunting for the “mubaba’s” fortune. Similarly, men having older women are referred to as “Ben-10s.”

However, we must agree that no matter how we troll them, they keep it moving, and we start admiring their love at some point.

Mkenya Leo compiled a list of celebrities you probably bashed for having an older spouse but are doing very fine.

Gospel musician Emmy Kosgey faced a lot of criticism when she chose to marry her Nigerian husband, Apostle Anselm Madubuko, on August 29, 2013. She reportedly started dating Apostle Madubuko shortly after she ended her long-term relationship with someone notable in the entertainment industry.

Born in the 1950s, Apostle Madubuko is over 20 years older than Emmy and was married to one Pastor Connie Madubuko until she died in 2012. Both Nigerians and Kenyans were against the union of Apostle Madubuko and Emmy Kosgei.

Nigerians were concerned with how Apostle Madubuko had married shortly after his wife’s death, while Kenyans accused Emmy of being a gold-digger for marrying an older man.

Nonetheless, they withstood the negativity and are now parents of a beautiful boy, together with three other adult children from Apostle Madubuko’s previous marriage. They also run Revival Assembly church, with Apostle serving as the lead Apostle and Emmy as the church’s first lady.

Gospel singer and politician Bahati Kioko was at the receiving end when he introduced his wife Diana to the public as his prayer partner in 2015. Kenyans went all out to criticize the musician for “fornicating” despite claiming that he was a born-again Christian.

Things would get worse when it was revealed that Diana was older than Bahati by three years. Diana was labeled a shosh, and most Kenyans were sure that “wataachana tu.”

Seven years later, the couple is going on strong. In fact, people forgot about the age thing and have come to love Diana. They are raising their four children together, including Mueni, whom Bahati sired in a previous relationship.

They are also doing well in content creation and music. They recently moved into their lavish mansion and are driving beastly cars.

Fashionable Step-mum Catherine Kariuki, famously known as Fashionable Step-Mum, is married to her husband, who is 17 years older than her.

In numerous interviews, she explained that her decision to marry her husband was challenging because her peers were against the idea of marrying a man who already had children and was divorced.

She decided to silence the negativity and decided to go after her heart, a decision she thanks God for.

She became a step-mom to her husband’s children and bore two more. Her marriage has lasted for over a decade, and love reigns in her home, according to the videos she shares on her platforms.

She is an advocate for changing the bad image of step-families.

Guardian Angel’s case is probably famous because it happened recently. Guardian is one of the most successful urban gospel singers in Kenya.

He became a subject of controversy when he revealed that he was dating the then 50-year-old Esther Musila, a mother of three adult children with her youngest at 22 years old.

People accused Guardian of choosing an older woman for money and even went to the extent of trolling Esther. Well, the trolling did not do much as the couple married early this year in a lavish wedding.

The couple ran multiple businesses together, including Solutions Media, a recording company.

Content creator Ciru Njuguna has seen it all. She is in her 20s and is married to a Muzungu husband, who is in his 60s. She faced a lot of hate when she came public about her marriage to an older man.

People told her that she was with her husband only to kill him later and inherit his wealth.

This negative vibe did not deter her from loving her man, with whom she has two children, twin boys. The couple is currently building their dream home.
