4 Famous Kenyan Women Who are Over 40 and Not Married

Kalekye Mumo

Kalekye Mumo, a celebrated media personality known for her work with Kiss FM, has yet to marry. Born in 1976, Kalekye is now around 47 years old and has found it challenging to date. She attributes this difficulty to societal notions about empowered women, particularly the belief that women who are successful and independent are difficult to be in relationships with because they won’t allow themselves to be “controlled” by men.

“As an empowered woman who has worked hard and accomplished many things, it has been difficult for me to date. I am still single because of the notion that an empowered woman cannot listen to a man,” Kalekye shared during a past interview.

Caroline Mutoko

Caroline Mutoko, a well-known feminist and media personality, is also unmarried at 50 years old. Despite not having a husband, Caroline is blessed with two children. Her status as a single mother and her strong feminist views have made her a prominent figure in discussions about women, empowerment, and family life.

Pierra Makena

DJ Pierra Makena, now around 42 years old, is yet to marry as well. The renowned DJ and media personality is a mother to a daughter, though she has never publicly revealed the identity of her child’s father. In a previous interview with Milele FM, Pierra confirmed that she is not currently engaged but is actively dating.

“I am not married, but I go on many dates. I am looking for someone to marry me. Once I find the right person, I will talk about it. Right now, I am single. If I do get married, it will be because we’ve connected deeply. I don’t believe in divorce, so if I find a man, it will be for eternity,” she shared in a past interview.

Sheila Mwanyigha

Sheila Mwanyigha, another well-known media personality, has also not yet married. Now around 47 years old, Sheila has gained fame through her successful career. Despite her age, she has turned down three marriage proposals in the past because her suitors did not meet her standards. Sheila remains single, holding out for a partner who aligns with her expectations.
