A video of veteran comedian Timothy Kimani, popularly known as Njugush, has resurfaced online, sparking fresh debate about his marriage to Celestine Ndinda. In the clip, Njugush opens up about feeling “suffocated” in marriage, reigniting rumours that the couple may be going through rough waters.
The throwback video shows Njugush comparing life before and after marriage. “When we were dating, life was quiet. I could hang out with my friends freely. But after marriage, I feel suffocated in my own space,” he lamented. He added that although women aim to make a man’s life easier, the adjustment can be overwhelming. “People build beautiful homes, but sometimes, you spend little time enjoying them because of tensions at home,” he said.
Celestine, on the other hand, reminded him that a wife’s presence is meant to ease life, not complicate it. Njugush, however, maintained that men often feel restricted in marriage compared to their dating days.
Social media users have weighed in, with mixed reactions. Some sympathize with Njugush’s candidness, while others argue he is unfairly blaming women for being themselves. Comments range from “Njugush anaongea ni kama anaregret kuoa” to advice suggesting married couples maintain personal space to preserve harmony.
While Njugush has previously shared videos with Celestine, showing them together, neither has officially addressed the ongoing separation rumours. Fans continue to speculate, keeping the couple under a microscope as the viral video circulates across platforms.
