Kenyan comedian and media personality Eddie Butita has gone public with his new relationship, surprising fans with a series of affectionate photos shared on Instagram.

In the images, the 31-year-old entertainer appears alongside CelleTerer, a Nairobi-based fashion model and content creator. The two, dressed in coordinated outfits, posed stylishly, sparking a wave of online chatter — and congratulations.

“They’ve been dating for less than a year,” a close friend told the media, adding that the couple has intentionally kept the relationship out of the public eye — until now.

Stylish Debut

In the photos, Butita wears a fitted blue shirt with matching trousers. CelleTerer pairs a long brown leather skirt with a white sleeveless top and white boots — a look that blends elegance and confidence.

Though the post lacked a caption, the message was clear: Butita is no longer single.

Who Is CelleTerer?

CelleTerer is no stranger to the public stage. A fashion model with a growing online following, she has graced runways such as the Kitenge Fashion Festival and built a modest reputation as a content creator. Known for her sleek style and polished Instagram presence, she brings her own spotlight to the relationship.

The pair have not confirmed whether they live together, and details about the early stages of their relationship remain private.

A Shift in Butita’s Inner Circle

Butita’s romantic reveal marks a shift within his famously tight-knit circle of friends — a group that includes Abel Mutua, Phil Karanja, Njugush, Celestine Ndinda, and Judy Nyawira.

Until now, he was the last among them to remain publicly single.

In past interviews, Butita spoke openly about his cautious approach to relationships. Speaking with Dr. Ofweneke, he said: “Relationships are not something you rush into just because everyone else is doing it. It’s a decision that needs planning, patience, and readiness.”

He added: “It’s one chance to be with someone for the rest of your life.”

The Mammito Chapter

For years, Butita had been linked to fellow comedian Mammito Eunice, though both had kept the relationship largely private. Mammito later confirmed they had parted ways.

In a 2023 interview with Mungai Eve, Mammito said she held no ill will. “We can definitely work together. He’s really talented and I respect that,” she said. “The industry is small, and we might cross paths again.”

Fans React

Reactions to the relationship reveal have ranged from celebratory to stunned.

“He called himself a ‘present boyfriend’ not long ago,” one fan commented, referencing a light-hearted interview remark. “Now we see what he meant!”

For now, Butita and CelleTerer have offered no public statements — just photos, smiles, and a quiet confirmation that love, sometimes, grows best in silence.
