Willis Raburu has stated that he will marry Ivy Namu this year. In an interview with Nairobi News, he announced and said that the site and date would be finalized soon. Last year during their son's birthday celebration, Willis and Ivy got engaged.


With the recent arrival of their second child, Willis and Ivy have been keen to get involved in raising their kids, according to Ivy's social media posts. Ivy stated on her Instagram stories that they were keeping an eye on their daughter in shifts.


The media star was previously engaged to Mary Irungu, also known online as Marya Prude, and the two even were married on May 5, 2017, in a little ceremony. This would be his second marriage.

The couple chose to get divorced after two years of marriage. Those in the know assert that losing their unborn child caused their marriage to suffer.

Willis described how their child's death profoundly impacted them in an interview with Massawe Japani. He claims that following the loss, they kind of lost touch with one another and gradually drifted further apart.


Between those two events, it became known to the public that they were splitting up. Marya then started sharing suggestive remarks on social media, and many people questioned whether or not they were meant for his ex, Willis Raburu.


He said that period was the darkest of his life since he went through unspeakable suffering and ultimately decided to file for divorce. 


I lost contact with her, and it sparked several other problems. With due respect to her, I then started the divorce procedure. Nobody enters a marriage expecting to divorce. I'm glad we occasionally lose ourselves. We formally divorced, and I moved on.


Willis gained notoriety in 2014 when he proposed to Sally Mbilu, a colleague and award-winning journalist.



Many Kenyans at the time found it hard to understand that he spent more than Ksh 100,000 on the engagement ring. Before they got engaged, the couple had been dating for a while. In 2015, Willis and Sally later grew apart.

Many believed the power couple would reconcile and go down the aisle at a lavish wedding, but sadly, this never happened. According to numerous sources, Sally moved on and is currently in a loving relationship.
