Former Citizen TV anchor, JACQUE MARIBE, opens up on being labeled ‘DENNIS ITUMBI’s wife’ online



Monday, September 8, 2025 - Disgraced media personality, Jacque Maribe, has moved to set the record straight on her long-rumored relationship with Dennis Itumbi, Head of Creative Economy and Special Projects in the Office of the President.

Appearing on the Off The Grid podcast, Maribe addressed the persistent public perception that she and Itumbi are romantically linked - a narrative that’s even reflected in Google search results.

“If you search ‘Dennis Itumbi wife,’ it’s only Jacque,” she joked, highlighting how deeply the assumption has seeped into public consciousness.

The two have often laughed off the speculation, even teasing that if they remain single into old age, they might just embrace the online marriage bestowed upon them.

“We already have in-laws on social media,” Maribe quipped.

Adding to the playful confusion, Maribe cheekily remarked, “Oh, by the way, my child is his. Yeah, I forgot to mention,” though it was clearly in jest.

Recently, Itumbi addressed the infamous photo of him kissing Maribe, which fueled much of the speculation and clarified it was part of a party game - truth or bottles - and not a romantic moment.

He chose the dare over a Ksh 50,000 penalty.

“I wish it were true,” he admitted, “because maybe then the rumors would’ve stopped.”

Despite the speculation, both Maribe and Itumbi maintain that their bond is rooted in friendship.

“She stood with me in court. I stood with her during her own legal battles,” Itumbi shared, underscoring the depth of their support for one another.
