Kenyan musician Jacob Otieno Obunga, famously known as Otile Brown, recently opened up about his personal life, shedding light on why he hasn’t tied the knot yet and sharing the heartbreaking story of losing his first child.
Known for his reserved nature and reluctance to delve into his family and relationship matters publicly, Otile took to Instagram Live to address some lingering questions about his personal life. He revealed that he could have been a father by now, but unfortunately, his girlfriend experienced a miscarriage.
Otile recounted a past relationship with a South African woman, following his separation from Nabayeto, his Ethiopian girlfriend. The couple had been planning to marry, but their dreams were shattered when his partner suffered a miscarriage.
Reflecting on this painful experience, Otile expressed his grief, acknowledging that the child would have been his first. This revelation marked a departure from his usual silence on such personal matters.
In 2023, Otile shared a poignant post on Instagram, lamenting the challenges of the year, particularly the loss of their unborn child. He confessed that the miscarriage had deeply impacted him, deeming it a difficult period in his life.
Despite his willingness to share this part of his life with his fans, Otile maintained the privacy of his former partner, describing her as a diplomatic figure from a notable family who preferred to stay away from the limelight.
Recent remarks by KRG The Don, implying Otile’s lack of marriage and children, prompted him to address the topic publicly. Otile admitted that while he desires to start a family, his upbringing, marked by his father’s multiple marriages and the hardships he endured, has instilled in him a fear of commitment.
Growing up in a tumultuous family environment has left Otile wary of rushing into marriage. However, he emphasized his dedication to personal growth and his aspiration to establish a stable, monogamous relationship, distinct from the tumultuous family dynamics he experienced in his youth.
