Celestine Ndinda Snubs Njugush On His Birthday Amid Separation

Popular digital content creator and comedian Timothy Kimani, widely known as Njugush, has marked his latest birthday milestone—a celebration that looks profoundly different this year as it marks his first birthday since parting ways with his longtime partner, Celestine Ndinda.

The milestone comes on the heels of the couple’s shocking announcement that they had officially ended their marriage. Popularly known to their massive fanbase as “Njugush and Wakavinye,” the duo was long considered one of the internet’s most beloved power couples.

A Quiet Split in 2025

While the news has only recently sunk in for devastated fans, Njugush revealed that the separation actually took place behind closed doors a year prior, in 2025. In a mature and measured public statement, the comedian explained that the decision to walk away from the marriage was mutual and grounded in deep respect for what they had built together.

“Last year, we made the decision to part ways after much thought and with mutual respect,” Njugush disclosed in the statement. “We have been co-parenting, and our children remain our top priority. We continue to support one another and kindly ask for privacy and understanding as we navigate this next chapter.”

Navigating a New Chapter

For nearly a decade, the two built an expansive media and business empire side-by-side, translating their real-life chemistry into viral comedy sketches and major corporate brand endorsements.

Despite the end of their romantic relationship, both Njugush and Celestine have committed to a peaceful and collaborative co-parenting dynamic to raise their two children together. While this birthday marks a poignant transition into independent life for the comic, his focus remains firmly on his family’s privacy and his ongoing creative journey.
