Dennis Okari wed Joy Naomi in a secret wedding ceremony that only froend and family were invited.

Pundits have started drawing comparisons between his first engagement/marriage to Betty Kyallo and his engagement/marriage to Joy Naomi.

Here are some of the pointers.

The second proposal was top secret not to be publicised.

Okari proposed to Joy Naomi in a surprise dinner where only family and very close friends were invited.

His first proposal to TV queen Betty Kyallo was carried out during a holiday in Mombasa.

Joy Naomi was sure of her answer to Okari when she said, "Yes!" and hugged him tightly as the room burst out in cheers and ululation. The engagement dinner saw Okari get vulnerable and ask Joy:

“The answer that I will get today will be etched in my memories for as long as I live.

I will love you with all the wisdom that God will give me and not just to love you but also to love Him as well and to serve His people.”

As for Betty, she had doubts from day one. She didn’t want the wedding nor the marriage but because of the “power couple” image they had created for the public, she agreed.

Betty said in a past interview:

“I felt it was still very premature and we had no story to tell. I was just learning the ropes and the idea of getting married was also just settling in. So I wasn’t sure if our story would have depth. You can imagine being engaged at 23, what do you know? But when you are in love, you easily get influenced by what your partner thinks and feels. And so Dennis managed to convince me to take the opportunity.”

We wish the happy couple the best in their marriage journey.
