YY Comedian reveals he was to pay Noela’s dowry in March 2025
Kenyan comedian YY has opened up about his past relationship with Noela Toywa, revealing that his relationship with his ex-lover Noela Toywa was months from the dowry table before their sudden breakup.
Speaking during an interview on Alex Mwakideu TV on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, YY disclosed that he had planned to hold a dowry ceremony for Noela in March this year, before their relationship quietly came to an end.

The comedian shared that his intentions with Noela were genuine and long-term, describing the relationship as one he deeply valued. However, things took a turn after what he termed as a breach of personal values, something he says was a deal-breaker for him.
While he chose not to reveal what led to their split, YY hinted that Noela had crossed certain boundaries that he had made clear from the beginning of their relationship.
Despite the fallout, he maintained that there were no hard feelings and that he had forgiven her.
“If things went well, I would have done that in March this year. I had plans on a serious note. I’m not saying what she did, but she knows. I forgave her, ata tukipatana tutaongea. There is no damage emotionally. It is just that she crossed lines I value so much, and she knew. When we met, I told her that these are the things I value; if she has an issue with this, there is no need for us to continue,” he stated.
Shortlived
YY and Noela’s relationship started on a high note, capturing the hearts of many fans. The comedian went all out to express his love, from romantic helicopter rides to thoughtful surprises that painted them as the ultimate couple goals. They were the it couple on the internet, especially after YY introduced Noela to his fans just two months after his split from actress Marya Okoth, and YY was going to meet her parents.
“Everyone wants to be happy every day. Huwezi kuwa na mtu ambaye humpendi. I think about things before I do them,” he said in an interview with Milele FM’s Ankali Ray.
He shared that he had fully healed from his past relationship and was ready to move forward.
“It does not matter how fast or how long; what matters is how soon you accept and move on. I work well when I know I have a home to run to. Men don’t want much from women; we just need moral support,” YY noted.
“I have healed. If I felt bad about what happened in my past relationship, I did then. Now, I have healed and am moving forward; even my ex-partner knows it,” he added.
But despite moving on quickly, YY’s romance with Noela did not last long.
By January 2025, the comedian confirmed they had gone their separate ways.
“We separated, just like how people separate. It’s life, let’s talk about my show.”
