Yvonne Okwara, a prominent TV news anchor, has been making waves in Kenya with her exceptional moderating skills, most notably at the recent Presidential Debate with Deputy President William Ruto. While Yvonne is a familiar face in Kenyan households, the man beside her, Andrew Matole, remains relatively unknown.
How did Yvonne Okwara meet her Husband?
Their story unfolded when Yvonne sought veterinary care for her ailing pet at Andrew’s clinic. Fate brought them together after Andrew’s separation from his first wife, marking the beginning of a beautiful connection. On December 6, 2014, Yvonne Buliba Okwara and Andrew Matole Konde exchanged vows in an intimate wedding held at Crown Plaza Hotel in Nairobi.
Who is Andrew Matole
Andrew Matole, as indicated by his LinkedIn profile, serves as the proprietor and Director at Andy’s Veterinary Clinic in Nairobi. Unlike Yvonne’s public profile and active social media presence, Matole is known for his reserved nature and prefers keeping a low profile.

Despite the couple’s attempts to maintain privacy, netizens remained curious about the man beside Yvonne. Matole, being 16 years older than Yvonne, became a subject of discussion among fans and online communities. However, the age difference has never been a point of contention for the couple.
Age Is Just a Number
In an interview with a local publication two years ago, Yvonne addressed the public chatter, emphasizing that their strong bond transcended societal opinions. She confidently stated, “People talked. People said things. That’s what comes with having a job in the limelight, but again, no one lives my life but me. My husband is my best friend, we get along incredibly well, and none of these other issues have ever mattered.”
Andrew Matole continues to be a supportive partner to Yvonne, contributing to the success and happiness of their married life. Despite his preference for a private life, his role as a veterinary surgeon and dedicated husband is an essential part of Yvonne Okwara’s narrative.
